Convenient to Duke Hosp/Univ & Walkable to DT
1st floor condo with its own HVAC system, Pearl Mills (formerly Duke Tower) is in walking distance to DT, arts and culture, parks, and restaurants/entertainment venues. There are great outdoor spaces, comfy beds, and a charming, unique building. The 1st-floor condo is next to the pool *CLOSED FOR SEASON*, gardens, cookout areas, shuffleboard, and large chessboard. Close to Duke East Campus and Duke Hospital. Well-suited to couples, solo travelers, and business travelers. Small dog <25 pounds allowed for $87/stay
The condo is very clean and it goes through a disinfecting process and has its own HVAC system. Everything available that is needed for a comfortable stay. Keurig coffee and still and carbonated water are provided. Pearl Mill Flats is within easy walking distance of downtown Durham restaurants and entertainment venues (15 minute walk). My favorite restaurant, Blue Note Grill (great food and live music) is less than two blocks away. Durham Performing Arts Center and the Durham Bulls Baseball Park are about a 2-minute drive or 25-minute walk from Duke Tower. Dog fee is $87/two. Max of 2 dogs under 25lbs allowed. Sorry no cats allowed!
All areas of the property are accessible to our guests. These areas include lovely gardens in the courtyard, grill and picnic areas, seating and conversation areas, shuffleboard, human-sized chess, miniature golf area, and a large lighted pool. Parking is ample and very close to your unit. The property is protected with security cameras and ample lighting.
You can feel free to call or text me at anytime for questions, directions, or whatever help is needed.
Duke Tower was constructed from antique brick which were salvaged from a 1930's cotton mill (Pearl Mill) which stood on the same spot. It is a very unique and historic property which still has the old mill tower and smoke stack preserved on the property,
Pearl Mill Flats is one of the stops on the GoDurham city bus route. There are also two other stops within easy walking distance (2-3 minutes) of the complex.
There is a very comfortable queen sofa bed with an upgraded foam mattress. Also a very comfortable recliner. The pool, decking and landscaping around it were renovated in the summer of 2017. Max of two dogs. They must be house broken, up to date on vaccines and flea control and well behaved (minimal barking). Pool hours are dawn to dusk. Pool closes 10/31/25.
