Back Alley Apartment, walk Downtown and Duke.
Your perfect Bully City pied-à-terre! This modern 2 bedroom apartment is hidden away in one of Durham's ubiquitous alleys, 2 blocks from Duke and Brightleaf Square, and 5 blocks to the heart of Durham.
You'll enjoy a light-filled private retreat with a real cook's kitchen, quaint balcony and all the amenities you need to feel at home. Book your visit to this highly rated guest fave!
Off street parking.
Pet friendly.
No smoking/vaping on premises.
We're recently retired, and have a lot of adventures planned, so our friend Emily will be your main contact. She lives a few blocks away if you need anything.
Historic Trinity Park is one of Durham’s most sought-after neighborhoods, both for its historic architecture and prime location. The tree lined streets connect to parks, Duke’s East campus, and right to the heart of downtown. I love that I can enjoy the peace and quiet on my street, and within a 5 minute walk be in the middle of everything.
You'll have full, private access to this second floor apartment, as well as parking for 1 vehicle. You will not have access to the ground floor of the garage, or to the back yard.
You'll reach the apartment via Alley 17, between Lamond St. & Gloria Ave - alley can be accessed via Watts St, Gregson St OR the parking lot of 1006 Lamond Ave. Park beside the garage/apt outside, next to the Grey Camper Van. Enter alley from Watts or Gregson st. Alley is between Lamond and Gloria Ave.
Please note: Parking on Gloria Ave itself is limited to 2 hours. Take advantage of the dedicated spot in the alley!
Built 2016.
Location is great for walking downtown and Duke's east campus. Free buses can get you farther downtown or to West campus. Uber is also prevalent and popular here, as are electric scooters.
As stated in the house rules, there is an automatic minimum $250 service fee for any violations of house rules that require additional cleaning and/or cause damage. This is our home. We have tried to make it comfortable for you and for us, and have been thoughtful in the amenities we provide. We appreciate you for exercising the same level of thought and care when staying here.
We are happy to host families, and have a few family-friendly amenities: pack n play in closet & safety gate at top of stairs.
We do ask that guests are relatively quiet after 10 PM, as a courtesy to neighbors.
Parties and loud groups are not permitted. Thanks for helping us be good neighbors.
Smoking or vaping of any substances is not permitted on the premises.
Well-behaved pets are welcome, and must be registered with the reservation. There is a base pet fee of $50 - total fee will be negotiated depending on # of pets and duration of stay.
Reservations of over 29 days are subject to additional fees. These are dependent upon length of reservation, and will be discussed when an inquiry or booking is made.
We use Safely as a third party screener for the safety of all of our guests and neighbors. As part of the reservation you will agree that: "I give permission to the property manager to use a third-party to screen my identity and check criminal databases to confirm my reservation." Complete terms regarding the guest screening can be provided by the property manager. You may receive an email to complete your screening. Please check your spam inbox for this email and contact us if you have any questions.
