About Walking DistancE Properties

Walking Distance was born from the love of old houses and walkable neighborhoods, and now owns and operates several historic rental units nestled in the same sweet block of the Cleveland-Holloway neighborhood of Durham. Three of our homes are single-family houses, and six are duplex apartments. In 2019 we added a small single family home in the historic walking district of Hillsborough.

Several of our properties have received Federal and State historic certification, and one of our renovations won a Neighborhood Conservation Aware from Preservation Durham in 2012. All are renovated and maintained with care.

As local owners, we pride ourselves in good communication with our tenants. As our name suggests, we provide housing that promotes a walkable lifestyle in downtown Durham, and are eager to welcome tenants who embrace a car-free lifestyle as much as possible.
