4405 Cottendale DriveDurham, NC 27703Price: $520,000

Tucked into a peaceful, tree-lined setting, 4405 Cottendale offers the kind of privacy that's getting harder to find--and the freedom that comes with a truly non-existent HOA. Built in 2022, this thoughtfully designed home balances clean, modern lines with warm, livable spaces. The open-concept main level flows effortlessly, anchored by a spacious kitchen with a large island, quartz countertops, and statement lighting that carries into the dining area. The living room brings it all together with custom built-ins and a sleek fireplace feature wall--cozy and perfect for hunkering down in this private setting. Natural light pours through oversized windows, highlighting the hardwood floors and detailed millwork throughout. Upstairs and down, the layout lives easy--functional, open, and just the right amount of separation. The primary suite delivers vaulted ceilings, great scale, and a bathroom that's been designed past the basic builder grade level--dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and clean, elevated finishes. Secondary bedrooms are well-sized and bright, an additional full bath and a standout powder room bring a bit of personality. Storage is dialed in with a fully built-out walk-in closet, and everyday living gets a boost from a dedicated laundry space that's as practical as it is polished- this isn't your everyday laundry closet. Step outside and it only gets better- so peaceful and quiet. A screened porch overlooks a wide, fenced yard backed by mature trees, creating a private, tucked-away feel that's rare for newer construction. Plenty of room to spread out, host, or just disappear for a bit. A detached two car garage adds flexibility, the setting delivers calm, and the lack of HOA means you can actually enjoy your property without a rulebook hovering nearby. Clean lines. Quiet setting. Zero HOA.
