A perfect home in Durham

This charming Durham home was perfect for our recent visit to Elon and Duke with friends. The attention to detail in the remodel and decor made us feel so warm and welcome. We enjoyed reading about the history of the home and neighborhood as well. Would highly recommend.

Family get together

My family and my parents stayed at Carolina cottage for our Durham weekend for the Duke v NC State football game. The house was very nice for the 6 of us. It was so convenient to not only the campus, but some of our favorite restaurants- Vin Rouge, JuJus and Elmo’s! We will be sure to book again for our next trip to Duke.

Beautiful, well designed home!

We had the opportunity to stay in this home and we loved it. The finishes, decor, and overall vibe was very chic! Honestly, I felt like it was a wasted opportunity to not have stayed home more often to enjoy the property more but maybe next time!

Roger Daniel is the founding partner along with his wife, celebrated interior designer Alicia Hylton-Daniel, of Hylton Daniel design+construction. Together they bring design+construction, grounded in culture, art history, architectural engineering, and interior designs that have transformed homes throughout Durham.

Why they chose this property

Alicia and Roger fell in love with this home in early 2020. They felt its undeniable charm but, even more deeply, wanted to restore its beauty to honor its history. This home had sheltered three generations of one family, beginning in 1940, and holds a special place in one of Durham's loveliest neighborhoods.

What makes this property unique

Situated in a gorgeous old Durham residential neighborhood, adjacent to the historic Watts Hospital, which became the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics. This home has a sunny off-kitchen deck and a shaded covered patio, surrounded by long-leaf pines, hydrangeas, camellias, and gardenias.
