Property Description

506 Mallard has a bit of a disappearing act going on. Walk out the front door and downtown Durham is right there. Step into the backyard and suddenly there are fireflies, birdsong, bistro lights, a tree swing, and enough leafy canopy to make the city feel considerably farther away than it is. That contrast is a big part of what makes this Cleveland Holloway bungalow so special. Inside, the living room makes an impression immediately, with 10-foot beadboard ceilings, beautiful heart pine floors, and room to really spread out. Those original details carry the history of the house, while thoughtful updates over the years have brought the kitchen and baths forward and tackled plenty of the practical stuff too, including a metal roof added in 2017, replacement windows, and HVAC replaced in 2020. The kitchen has plenty of room to cook without disappearing from the action, and from there it's an easy transition out to the large back deck and garden. And what a garden. Mature canopy keeps it remarkably shaded in summer, while native perennials and trees, a box elder with a swing, fire pit, vegetable garden, and multiple places to gather turn the backyard into much more than something nice to look at through a window. Set up a long table on the deck and watch the birds. String up a projector for movie night. Or do absolutely nothing beyond sitting under the trees for a while. Then leave the car parked behind the gate and head out on foot. Saturday morning at the Durham Farmers' Market. Dinner at Alley 26 or Pizzeria Toro. A show at DPAC. A library run. Drinks at Motorco, Fullsteam, or Ponysaurus. This is the version of downtown living where walking somewhere is genuinely part of daily life, but coming home doesn't feel particularly urban. Historic, beautifully cared for, and deeply connected to both its garden and its city, 506 Mallard sits on a particularly charming stretch of Mallard Avenue. It's a house that will be hard to say goodbye to and an awfully good one to come home to.
