Charming bungalow close to downtown Durham, Duke University and historic Durham. Great restaurants a hop, skip and a jump from the house. The Nasher Art Museum, Durham Bulls ballpark, Sarah P Duke Gardens, and so much more are within 2 miles of this fun, colorful home lived in by an artist.

The Cat House Guest Suite is named for the big yellow cat hanging on the front of the house. And inside there are a few cats and two small dogs. If you are allergic to cats, you will not be happy here.

The suite is designed with Asian art I have collected. There is a sleeping area with a queen-sized bed and a sitting area with a table and futon couch (spring mattress, so great for sleeping too.) This large room can accommodate a couple and a child. You have your own toilet and shower/tub area with a sink in an adjoining area.

Guests have dining and living room, deck, kitchen and laundry room privileges. I have my own suite area; this house is big enough for guests to relax in privacy .

I enjoy sharing the grittiness of Durham with visitors. I've been here 20 years and know my way around to wherever you might want to go. This is the perfect place to call home when you are visiting the town that tobacco built.
