This East Durham Colonial farmhouse offers a more subtle approach to a Greek Revival look, minus the opulent columns.

Not every Greek Revival boasts pediments and scrolled columns, and here’s a Colonial that proves it. Originally built in the late-1700s, the residence features a nod to it in the form of the entryway framing, low roofline, and symmetrical shape.

Inside, there’s a warm and friendly 2,233-square-foot layout with pine plank flooring and a cozy living room woodstove.

As for the kitchen, it’s a proper country workspace with lots of of storage and room to eat in, with a mix of high-end stainless steel appliances and rustic, well-loved details.

And, off the kitchen is a formal dining room, recently-renovated, boasting stripped-down support beams, wood floors, and an upper-level loft space.
