THE SPACE

From the moment you arrive, you'll be impressed by the abundance of natural light, the modern yet relaxed aesthetic of the home, and all of the special touches we've put throughout the home.

Living Room:
The sun-drenched open-concept living room is a great place to hang out and relax and play records, play the piano, try out the OCULUS 2 VR headset and controllers, play board games, or snuggle up with fresh-popped popcorn and gumballs and watch your favorite shows and movies on the 65" Smart TV with Netflix, HBO, and more. Turn on the electric fireplace for warmth or just an elevated look and feel. The living room has seating for 8, plus two more seats at the kitchen island. The antique piano desk functions as a desk and also has a professional keyboard with weighted keys and a pedal inside. You're able to disconnect the piano if little fingers can't keep their hands off it :) The gumball machine takes quarters that you'll be reimbursed for. We did this intentionally to keep the little ones in check :) All proceeds go to charity.

The living and dining room look out onto the back porch and fenced backyard so the kids can play while the adult relax inside.

Kitchen & Dining Area:
The newly-built modern chef's kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a bespoke white glass refrigerator that has a beverage center and makes 2 different sizes of ice. We do our best to stock the refrigerator with fresh food like milk, eggs, and butter to help get you started.

Enjoy unforgettable meals around the dining table comfortably seats 6 and can fit 8. The island seats another two. Both are also great places to work!

The kitchen has everything you need, from an air fryer, microwave, blender, toaster, and kettle, to pots and pans, dishes and silverware for adults and kids, drinking glasses, wine glasses, champagne glasses, coffee cups, knives, cutting boards, bakeware, cooking utensils, cookbooks, and more.

We do our best to keep the pantry stocked with essentials like cereal, oatmeal, mac and cheese, rice, protein bars, snacks, oil, salt and pepper, spices, cooking oil, and more to help get you started.

Our famous COFFEE BAR comes with an espresso machine, a Kurig that brews 12 cups of coffee and single K cups of coffee, a french press, and a frother. We also provide assorted teas, including freshly ground Matcha tea, hot chocolate, and vanilla and caramel syrup. We also provide premium ground coffee and ground espresso beans. In the drawers, you'll find organic K cups and half-and-half, sugar, splenda, and Biscoff cookies!

Under the kitchen sink, you'll find extra dishwasher pods, trash bags, and cleaning supplies.

Internet:
Ultra high speed G-O-O-G-L-E Fiber Internet makes it easy for everyone to enjoy all of their devices simultaneously.

Primary Bedroom:
You'll be blown away by the 20 feet high soaring ceilings in the primary bedroom. The thick memory foam king bed comes with tons of comfy pillows and luxury linens. This bedroom has a swinging egg chair, a PILATES reformer, yoga equipment, its own Nespresso coffee bar, a 65" smart TV, and a large desk with a 27" iMac. In the generous walk-in closet, you'll find bath robes, a bolted-in safe, extra sheets, pillows, blankets, and towels. You'll also have access to baby items, such as a pack n play.

Primary Bathroom:
There is a generous ensuite bathroom that boasts a rainfall shower with three shower heads and a private water closet. In the bathroom, you'll find premium shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, and hand soap, as well as Q-tips, cotton balls, and makeup remover pads. You'll be provided with plenty of fluffy towels.

Bedroom 2:
This upstairs bedroom has an ultra-comfortable, ultra-thick Casper mattress, luxury sheets, and a ceiling with the coolest bird wallpaper you've ever seen! The room also has a generous closet and a TV for winding down at the end of the day. Turn on or off the unique LED light installation with the click of a button.

Bedroom 3:
This downstairs bedroom can be set up as a king bed, 2 twin beds, or one twin/daybed. This room has its own TV, a desk, the OCULUS, podcasting equipment, and hangers to put your clothes on.

Bedroom 4:
This upstairs bedroom has an ultra-comfortable, thick memory foam queen mattress, luxury sheets, its own large smart TV, a desk with vintage cameras on top, and a mattress with extra sheets, towels, and hangers.

Guest Bathroom:
The upstairs bedrooms share a full bathroom that has a shower, tub, and plenty of amenities to make you feel right at home, like shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, Q tips, cotton pads, and makeup remover pads. After a long day of fun, enjoy a relaxing bath with the provided bath salts. We also have a baby bath that can be used in this bathroom to bathe babies.

Powder Room:
There is a beautifully designed powder room downstairs between the kitchen and Bedroom 3. You'll have towels, soap, and extra toilet paper.

Porch:
The porch off of the back of the house has a beautiful seating area for four people, as well as a relaxing hanging bench. Enjoy the sights of beautiful flowers as you overlook the backyard.

The spacious, fenced-in backyard has a fire pit with six chairs, an outdoor dining table with an umbrella and six chairs, a relaxing hammock, and a BBQ. We even provide outdoor games! The gate is locked for your privacy and enjoyment.

Baby Equipment:
We provide a high chair, a pack n' play, a crib, a baby gate, a baby bath, plug covers, corner covers for the coffee table, kids' dishes, and more to keep babies and children safe and comfortable. You can unplug the piano if they're having a little too much fun with it, you can close and lock the record player, and the gumball machine takes quarters so that should give you some peace! The gumball machine is relatively light so you can always move it into a closet if it becomes too much of a distraction for little ones.

Best Booking Ever!
I booked the home to attend my college homecoming festivities. There were 4 of us sharing the home. It was a very clean, bright, beautiful and inviting space. The host thought of absolutely everything! The welcome bottles of sparkling water and snacks were such nice added touch. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space to relax. The refrigerator stocked with items to make breakfast was so thoughtful. We definitely indulged. The layout of the home was beautiful and the interior design was aesthetically pleasing. So many ideas I've decided to take back and try in my own home. I must say that they set the bar high for any future home rentals. I'm spoiled! Thank you renting your space and making our visit to Durham a memorable one. I look forward to future stays at this property.

Everything we needed and more
After traveling by car from Florida to visit Duke for a stem cell treatment for our son, we were exhausted and welcomed to a lovely home that had everything we needed and more. It was so great not to have to worry about packing infant necessities like a pack n play, high chair, or even baby utensils. Prior to arriving we planned to explore the area, but were completely satisfied by relaxing in the space, utilizing the grill and kitchen amenities to make our meals, even played with the virtual reality headset provided. The bathrooms and bedrooms have everything you need, including very comfy beds. The host was very responsive to any questions. We’d highly recommend this home to anyone. It’s very centrally located, but in a quiet neighborhood. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Moms’ Trip to Durham
This property Durham property we stayed in had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. The interior design of the property is by far the best I have seen in a rental property. It made us feel like we were staying in a spa. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you can need. The bathrooms had a good line of shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lots of towels. The group of 8 moms that stayed here gave it a 5-star rating.

Duke game weekend
We had our family of 8 adults for a weekend of fun for a Duke Basketball game. The house was amazing! Kitchen is well stocked, plenty of linens. The host communicated promptly and often about questions we had. The neighborhood was quiet and the beds were so comfy - we slept tight! Coffee bars were awesome and decor was amazing - loved added touches like string lights hung around fence and patio which gave a beautiful ambience for a happy hour wine time. Easy Uber ride to and from game- definitely would stay here again for future game.

Lovely home
Everything and more was provided. Jill was a great host and communication was exceptional! The house is new construction in an established neighborhood. It has lovely finishes. It also has an alarm for safety that was easy to use. Our family stayed to celebrate our graduate from Duke. It was close to downtown restaurants, bars and activities. We had so much fun in Durham!
