Welcome to 1601 Redmond Drive—a beautifully updated, single-story brick ranch nestled in a quiet North Durham neighborhood without the restrictions of an HOA. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers approximately 1,750 square feet of comfortable living space on a captivating 0.55-acre lot, blending timeless character with modern upgrades that make everyday living effortless. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the home's classic curb appeal and welcoming covered front porch. Step inside to a cozy living area anchored by a wood-burning fireplace—the perfect spot to relax or gather with family and friends. The kitchen was thoughtfully updated in 2022 with quartzite countertops, a glass tile backsplash, new sink and faucet, and new appliances, including a stainless steel dishwasher and microwave. A washer and dryer, along with a stainless steel refrigerator, were added in 2023. The main living space features a second wood-burning fireplace and flows seamlessly toward the home's three generous bedrooms. You'll love the spacious primary suite, which received a full bathroom remodel in 2023, featuring a beautifully tiled, barrier-free shower. Step outside to enjoy a landscaped backyard with mature fig trees, offering a private and serene escape—all with unmatched proximity to shopping and retail. Just 0.3 miles away, a Publix-anchored retail village (Latta Park) is underway at Guess and Latta Roads, bringing new shops, outdoor dining, parks, and trails to your doorstep by 2026. This 1973 classic ranch has also been thoughtfully modernized beyond aesthetics, offering lasting peace of mind. Major upgrades include a new roof (2019), and a series of energy-efficient ''invisible'' improvements in 2022: reinforced joists and headers, new insulation in the attic and crawl space, a vapor barrier, and a dehumidifier. A brand-new HVAC system was installed in 2024. With a transferable home warranty included, you can feel confident and proud to call this impeccable home your own.
