Property Description
A true Forest Hills classic - this modern ranch quietly tucked in on Kent is the American homebuyer's dream. A designer's touch elevated this sprawling floor plan with phenomenal execution - a centerpiece kitchen, living spaces that flow and spill naturally into one another, and refined updates by the current owners that bring a quiet sophistication to every inch. Open layout, additional bonus room, screened-porch and oversized deck combo, large bathrooms, elevated utility and entry room, skylights, hardwoods throughout, fully fenced backyard, and all the storage you need. 3 spacious bedrooms AND an added bonus room - a serene primary suite, fun and sizable secondary bedrooms. The bonus offers the opportunity for an office/playroom/gym/media/music room just off your main living space, seamlessly connected but also lends privacy if desired. Effortless transition from inside to out, with a fenced backyard and lovely chicken coop - your hens will be just as happy as you at this ranch. New paint, new roof, and recent mechanicals - not only does it look good, it feels solid. Practical storage potential - walk-in crawlspace, floored attic space, and large exterior storage shed. Showcasing one of Durham's premier historic and downtown neighborhoods, living in Forest Hills is amazing as you think - walk to Forest Hills Park, Rockwood dining fare, and enjoy exceptional proximity to Downtown. Walk to school! Morehead Montessori for elementary, Lakewood Montessori for middle school. 1711 Kent is ready for you, ready for fun, ready for Fall — and ready for whoever's calling Forest Hills home next.
