From this porch in historic Morehead Hill, Durham's first neighborhood, you can see the skyline and, better yet, walk to it. Walk, bike or scooter to the ballpark, DPAC, American Tobacco, Durham Co-op and the whole West End. 147 is right there for everybody else's commute. Then the part nobody on Yancey Street has: a long driveway with parking for days at the back of a deep lot, plus a custom-built storage shed that conveys and holds a ton. Street parking is charming right up until you have to deal with it. Inside, a 1937 classic renovated top to bottom. Original heart pine floors, high smooth ceilings, an updated modern kitchen and bathrooms that got every bit of the same love, and four original coal-era fireplaces, decorative, kept for character. A living room, a separate family room and a true dining room downstairs, so everybody gets their own corner. Upstairs, the primary suite is genuinely large and full of character, with a walk-in closet and a fully renovated bath: dual vanity, a big soaker tub, and a separate glass walk-in shower. Three bedrooms and two and a half baths total, with modern laundry on the second floor where the clothes actually are, and a covered patio out back. The past here is documented, not guessed at: city directories list two households under this roof, 808 and 810, from the 1920s into the 1950s. A painter, a caseworker, a pressman, a tobacco worker. The written history comes with the house. Fresh exterior paint. No HOA, just Morehead Hill historic district guidelines keeping the whole block looking like this. Come climb up and see it.
