About 1304 Georgia Avenue
Welcome to exceptional one-level living in the heart of desirable Watts Hospital-Hillandale. Nestled among towering pines on a beautifully landscaped lot, this updated 2,715-square-foot, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath brick ranch offers an ideal combination of classic character, thoughtful updates, generous living spaces, and an exceptionally convenient Durham location. The property includes both the .32-acre parcel at 1304 Georgia Ave. and the additional .33-acre parcel at 2411 Par Place, creating a rare opportunity for a total of approximately .65 acres in one of Durham's most sought-after neighborhoods. Inside, the home has been extensively refreshed. The newly renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, backsplash, new appliances, and new hardwood flooring in kitchen and breakfast room and office. Most windows have been replaced, while 2025 updates include new wainscoting, chair railing and crown molding. The shared full bath and half bath have been updated, and new exterior doors and hardware add both style and function. Fresh interior paint throughout gives the home a clean, cohesive feel. Additional improvements include a newly tiled laundry room, updated large first-level flex room with a separate entrance, new LVP flooring, tankless water heater located in the sealed crawlspace, wireless security system, and exterior security lighting. Outside, the landscaping has been thoughtfully redone with improved drainage, downspout extensions, and an irrigation system. The current owner grew up in the home, and the property has been in the family since it was originally built—a rare connection to the neighborhood's history. The owner has also completed a pre-listing home inspection and is addressing identified issues, providing an added measure of confidence for the next owner. Location is hard to beat: approximately .7 mile to Duke Hospital North Pavilion, 1.2 miles to Ninth Street, 2.8 miles to downtown Durham, and 16 miles to RDU International Airport. The highly coveted Oval Park is just a 12-minute walk away. With its substantial lot area, additional buildable parcel, extensive recent improvements, and prime Watts Hospital-Hillandale location, 1304 Georgia Ave. presents a truly distinctive opportunity to own a piece of one of Durham's most established and desirable neighborhoods.
