1 Tin Barn Pl, Durham, NC 27705

What first strikes you at 1 Tin Barn Place is the sweep of the corner lot: 1.39 acres edged by mature trees and manicured plantings in Croasdaile Farm, with Croasdaile Country Club just around the bend. This all-brick, two-story traditional was built in 2004 and offers nearly 5,900 square feet of thoughtfully arranged living space — an elegant house that functions as a comfortable family home and a refined entertainer’s residence.

Step inside to high ceilings, detailed crown moldings, and a living room crowned with a coffered ceiling and a full wall of windows that emphasize scale and proportion. The kitchen centers on quartz countertops and a generous breakfast area, flowing to formal dining and multiple informal nooks. A screened porch with its own fireplace extends the living space outdoors while a grand library/study and formal rooms create private corners for work and reflection.

For media lovers, the home’s dedicated theater room is equipped with a Dolby Atmos sound system — a rare, built-in amenity that transforms movie nights. Practical features include two laundry rooms (one currently used as a flower-arranging room), a three-car attached garage, and multiple storage areas. Five full baths and four bedrooms are arranged for flexibility; primary-suite living is comfortable and private, while guests and family enjoy well-scaled secondary suites.

Outside, the level corner lot offers room for casual play, garden projects, or a future pool, and frontage on Tin Barn Place and Trailwood Drive gives a sense of arrival. The property is impeccably maintained (listed condition: excellent) and sits within walking distance of Croasdaile Country Club while remaining minutes from Duke University, Duke University Hospital, and downtown Durham. With an assessed value aligned to recent local luxury sales and strong demand for homes near Duke, this brick estate blends classic craftsmanship with modern systems and lifestyle-ready spaces.
