About 1900 Sunset Ave

Welcome to the latest episode of Selling Sunset!! This beautifully renovated 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is located in the coveted Watts-Hillandale neighborhood. Fully renovated down to the studs in 2017, all of the home's major systems were updated, including the roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, windows, and a tankless water heater, ensuring modern comfort and efficiency. The kitchen and bathrooms were also thoughtfully updated at that time, offering both style and function. The main level features a bright and open layout with an abundance of natural light. The spacious kitchen is a chef's dream, with sleek quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, an enormous fridge/freezer combo, and a gas stove with suspended SS hood vent. The hardwood floors on the main level were refinished in Feb of 2025, enhancing the home's charm, and fresh paint throughout adds a clean, modern feel. On the main floor, you'll find 3 bedrooms (including the spacious primary suite) and 2 1/2 bathrooms, along with the main kitchen, dining and living areas. The lower level includes a separate living area with its own bedroom, full kitchen, laundry and bathroom, as well as its own separate entrance, offering privacy and versatility. Whether you want to use this as an in-law suite, a rental income generator, or even just an additional hang out space, the opportunities are endless. Step outside to the lower deck, ideal for entertaining guests or enjoying quiet outdoor moments. The 1-bay garage might be the deepest you've ever seen and provides ample space for 4 cars. Or use the additional garage space for an amazing home gym, workshop, or bowling alley (seriously, it is that long). The possibilities are endless. This home offers the best of both worlds: a spacious, modern single-family home with the potential for additional income or multi-generational living. Don't miss the opportunity to own this stunning property in one of Durham's most desirable neighborhoods!
