About this property
Cozy Bull City Home*1.5 mi to Duke* Dog friendly
Cute and cozy home near Duke and Downtown Durham in The Forest Hills area. Amazing restaurants just a few blocks away! Very convenient to Duke Hospital and Duke University. Up to two well behaved dogs are welcome for a fee of $75/two dogs per stay. Sorry no cats allowed.
This charming home has 3 bedrooms (1king and 2 queen), 1.5 baths. Beautiful new kitchen. Great outdoor space. Fireplace.
Entire house.
I live in Durham and am just a phone call or text away.
Great restaurants just blocks away! Grub, Tyler's Taproom, Nana Steak, Tobacco Road Sports Bar all within 1.5 miles.
1.2 miles from Durham Performing Arts Center and 3.5 miles from Duke Hospital.
Many parks within walking distance. Lyon Park is one block from the house. 1.5 miles to Duke East Campus and 2 miles to Duke Hospital.
Great cozy home in a quiet neighborhood and convenient to everything!
Up to two behaved dogs are welcome for a fee of $75.00 per stay. No house parties!
The back yard can be soft if you get off of the rock driveway!! Do not pull around in a circle in the grass or you will get stuck. It is a pull in and pull out driveway only, not a turn around. Please do not park in the back if you are unable to pull back out.
Early/late checkout-in/out possibly available for $50.
No house parties and please respect the neighbors and the property. Please park behind the house or on the street (do not block the shared driveway).

About the host
Hosted by Andrea Douglass
I am a pharmacist at Duke Hospital who stumbled into the world of property management and real estate. It all began when I started renting out my personal properties as short-term rentals. I quickly fell in love with managing properties and interacting with guests, which led me to obtain my real estate license. As my passion for this field grew, I expanded my services to manage other people's properties as well. The business became so busy that I had to reduce my hours at Duke Hospital to dedicate more time to it. I am deeply passionate about traveling and exploring different properties and areas, which fuels my love for this profession even more. I am dedicated to providing exceptional service to both property owners and guests, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for all involved.
