The house is located in historic Trinity Park. It's one of the most desirable places to live in Durham, lots of other beautiful historic homes, old growth trees, very safe neighborhood, walking distance to Downtown Durham and Duke's East Campus.

High ceilings, wood floors, large master bedroom/bathroom suite, lots of natural light, generous kitchen/dinning room area, and flex space for study or additional sleeping capacity.

We are Delighted Properties, because that is how we want you to feel when you walk in the door. The Bull City is our home and we want to share it with you, through personal recommendations and the items & services we provide throughout your space. Look for all the local products we include (and ask us where you can find them for yourself!)
We take great care in creating a comfortable, home-but-better experience for your stay - we hope you'll Be Delighted!

Downtown Durham (with lots of restaurants, stores, etc.) is within walking distance. There is a bus stop within a block of the house. You can also get around by bike, scooter, Uber, etc.

As stated in the house rules, there is an automatic minimum $250 service fee for any violations of house rules that require additional cleaning and/or cause damage. This is our home. We have tried to make it comfortable for you and for us, and have been thoughtful in the amenities we provide. We appreciate you for exercising the same level of thought and care when staying here.
While we are happy to host families, please note that the apartment is not “child-proofed,” nor do we provide any child-focused amenities (no crib, pack-n-play, high chair, etc).
We do ask that guests are relatively quiet after 10 PM, as a courtesy to neighbors. It's an old house and noise travels!
Please don't operate the laundry after 9pm.
Parties and loud groups are not permitted. Thanks for helping us be good neighbors.
Smoking or vaping of any substances is not permitted on the premises.
Well-behaved pets are welcome, and must be registered with the reservation. There is a pet fee. Pets cannot be left alone in the back yard.

Beautiful place to stay in a great location

I really enjoyed staying at this property. Check in/check out were easy and communication with the host was great. The kitchen was stocked well and we were able to cook a few simple meals. The shower is amazing and the beds were super comfortable. I loved how spacious it is and the location was great. We were able to walk to the Saturday farmers market and food/coffee options in Brightleaf. I will definitely stay here again when I visit Durham.

Clean & Comfortable

The apartment was clean and comfortable. Emily was very responsive to all our needs. The only part I didn't care for was the registration/check-in process, where I had to submit to a background check once I had paid my non-refundable fees.
