1405 Watts St Durham, NC 27701

Once in a rare while, a Watts St. gem pops up in coveted Trinity Park. 1405 Watts is an exquisite 2022-built home in the most sought-after and walk-able neighborhood. A lush green exterior takes its cue from surrounding trees and the brick is an intentional nod to the existing architectural throughout Trinity Park. This home is a showcase in sophisticated design with strong clean lines, an abundance of windows and natural light, thoughtful storage built-ins and high-end finishes. Swathed in soft whites, both soft and assertive blues and organic statement materials in dramatic scale, the result is classic, yet modern, timeless, bright and grounded. A large and welcoming vestibule greets you at the entry, built to corral all the shoes, jackets, bikes, strollers, umbrellas, and packages. Parents of furbabies will appreciate how the vestibule keeps their precious pups and cats from rushing out the front door. Once past the vestibule, pristine Scandinavian-inspired, site-finished white oak floors run seamlessly throughout. The inviting kitchen, the heart of every home, is a study in modern elegance—clean aesthetics, dramatic scale, large walk-in pantry, ceiling-height high end real wood cabinetry and continuous backsplash work together seamlessly in this high-function kitchen, armed with a luxurious reverse osmosis, triple-filtered drinking water system with instant hot and cold taps at your fingertips. An enormous honed stone waterfall island anchors the work and gathering space, with roomy seating for six. This is your central hub for casual morning coffee, everyday meals and entertaining. Or, enjoy your homemade meals or pizza nights in the adjoining warm and moody dining room, clad in real wood trim. When it's time to unwind, the primary retreat features a remarkable spa-like bath that glows warmly, bathed in each afternoon's natural light. Imagine a peaceful soak in the glamorously clad tub, with your favorite Cabernet and a podcast. You'll never want to leave the lux extra-large shower with multiple shower heads. The primary closet is thoughtfully connected to the laundry, saving time and reducing the back and forth of everyday chores. Farther on, a dedicated study provides privacy and flexibility for work or creative pursuits. Kiddos and pets will enjoy the fenced yard and deck. A detached garage with alley access offers convenient and discreet parking, in addition to existing parking options in the front driveway. Ring security with cameras for added peace of mind. Just a few minutes stroll to the East Loop, Monuts, Joe Van Gogh, 9th St and Elmo's makes coffee runs, dog and stroller walks and weekend brunches so accessible. Less than 10 minutes to both Duke Hospitals, gorgeous Duke Gardens, Museum of Life and Science, Costco, Whole Foods and Harris Teeter—this custom home in Trinity Park is an extraordinary opportunity.
