Single Family Residence In Durham

Some addresses are worth waiting for, and in this corner of Watts-Hillandale, the wait can be long. Rarely do they arrive completely reimagined while keeping the original charm. Designed and remodeled by CQC Home, a Triangle design-build firm, 2106 Woodrow Street was expanded beyond its original footprint, so the new space feels like it was always part of the plan. This home sits outside the local historic district, so future updates and additions don’t face The same review or restrictions within the district. The hard part is done, and the next chapter is yours to shape. Then there’s the neighborhood. Tree-lined streets, deep porches, and a front-porch culture where people actually know each other. Oval Park anchors it all, with open green space, a playground, a basketball court, and a calendar that includes spring egg hunts, Fourth of July parades, and one of Durham’s most beloved Halloweens. Monuts is close by for pastries and coffee, LocoPops for a scoop, and Ninth Street’s restaurants, cafes, and The Regulator Bookshop are all nearby. Duke, Duke Hospital, and downtown Durham are a short trip, and Ellerbe Creek Trail is nearby when you want time outdoors. When inside, the kitchen is the standout with its deep countertops giving you room to cook, serve, and gather, with unique hidden storage behind some of the cabinetry keeping items out of sight. It opens toward the dining and provides easy access to the mud room and screened porch. The living room features a wood-burning stove. Original hardwood flooring in the majority of the rooms adds to the original character and charm of the home. Upstairs, the owner’s suite and bath were fully transformed, with the same care and craftsmanship carried through. The layout offers real range: a main-level bedroom beside a full bath, a second main-level room that works as an office or guest bedroom, there are additional bedrooms and full baths upstairs, a laundry closet in the hall, and a basement providing good storage inside the home. Outdoors, the rear decking and a rear yard give you room to grill, and gather in private, while the front yard provides an open area for play. A finished renovation and an address people hold onto for years is a rare combination. Schedule your private tour today.
