Nestled on a uniquely large quadruple lot along a serene, tree-lined street in the heart of Trinity Park, this home embodies timeless elegance and historic charm. Constructed in 1925 with extraordinary craftsmanship, it has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated by its current owner, making it one of the most significant properties in decades to be offered for sale Durham's historic and walkable neighborhoods.Inside, the home's grand dining room, spacious living area, and expansive front porch reveal a legacy and future of large gatherings. Inviting bedrooms with generous closets and beautifully updated bathrooms offer a peaceful retreat amid the vibrant surroundings of Durham and Duke University. This Renaissance Revival masterpiece was originally commissioned by Benjamin Kronheimer, one of Durham's ''Merchant Princes,'' who sought out celebrated architect Nelson G. Murray—the same visionary behind Duke University's Hart House—to design a residence of unparalleled quality. Murray delivered on every detail, using the finest materials and sparing no expense to ensure lasting grandeur.The 4,667-square-foot estate known as ''Rose Villa'' spans a lush 0.69-acre lot and includes a detached garage and workshop, ample for any creative endeavor. The kitchen is a dream for serious cooks, featuring bar-top seating, a breakfast nook, a butler's pantry, and abundant storage. The home's original trim, doors, and hardware have been preserved, while modern comforts seamlessly blend in: five large bedrooms, four full baths (three recently updated), two half baths, and two functional fireplaces. Outside, the manicured landscaping is replete with native varietals. Located just a block from Duke's East Campus and within walking distance to Whole Foods, Brightleaf, and many of Durham's best offerings, this property combines the essence of history with the energy of a walkable lifestyle. The owners have, during their 30 year ownership, been exceptional stewards of this architectural masterpiece. All flat roofs have recently been re-surfaced with modern rubber membrane roofing. Even more impressively, every single terra cotta roof tile was removed, and new waterproof membrane installed. The tiles were carefully inspected, and any cracked ones were replaced before re-installation of the roof surface, ensuring it's reliability for at least another 50 years. The home is heated by a boiler & radiators, which are reliable and add a nice consistent warmth to the home. The highly efficient Boiler is less than 2 years old. Central air conditioning is provided by 3 forced air units, all less than 10 years old. The ductwork is well-fabricated from sheet metal and insulated. The original electrical system was commercial BX shielded cable (not the more common knob & tube). There is a modern main panel & sub panels feeding updated Romex cable in kitchen & bathrooms and for HVAC circuits. An electrician with 30+ years experience evaluated and said the main house system is safe and reliable as-is. All in all, this is an extraordinary opportunity for a discerning buyer to own a crown jewel of Durham history, in move-in ready condition.
