About The Property

Storybook charm and timeless character in one of Durham's most beloved in-town neighborhoods. This 1930s Watts Hillandale classic is the kind of house that fulfills dreams. From its swooping roofline and picket fence to the expansive screened porch, this home is brimming with warmth and character. Designated as a historic landmark, the Council-Arena House was beautifully built in 1937 for Jay Arena (1909), a professor of pediatrics at Duke. Inside, the gracious foyer with original banister opens to arched doorways, oversized original windows, hardwood floors, chunky moldings, and a welcoming living room with fireplace. The large dining room is adorned with historic built ins and the spacious kitchen has recent updates like quartz countersRead MoreRead Less
