- Description: Imagine building the home you have been waiting for in one of Durham's established neighborhoods. This 1.27-acre buildable lot on desirable Emerson Road offers a rare combination of location, usability, and flexibility, giving you the opportunity to design a home around the way you want to live. The parcel is level and partially cleared, with open green space, mature wooded edges, and a roughed-in driveway that makes it easier to walk the property and envision the possibilities. Thoughtful home placement could provide privacy, natural light, outdoor living space, gardens, and room to create a setting you will enjoy for years to come. The accompanying virtual renderings illustrate just some of what may be possible. Building lots in Durham's established neighborhoods are increasingly difficult to find, particularly those offering this level of convenience. Public services are available at the road, town approvals are in place, and there may also be an opportunity to name the private way providing access from Emerson Road. Enjoy close proximity to Oyster River schools, UNH, downtown Durham, sidewalks, local dining, cultural events, and commuter routes, all while creating a home that is uniquely yours. Opportunities like this are limited. Schedule a private site walk and explore whether this could be the setting for your next home. Site walks are by appointment and must be accompanied by an agent. Please do not enter the property without an appointment.
