There's a moment when you walk through this house and step out onto the back deck that tends to stop people. The yard drops away into a canopy of old hardwoods, trees that have been here far longer than the neighborhood, and suddenly it doesn't feel like you're in a subdivision at all. That kind of privacy, on a third of an acre in the middle of Wake Forest, is genuinely rare. The home itself is 2,968 square feet of well-considered space. A grand two-story foyer sets the tone from the moment you walk in, opening to formal living (or a potential office) and dining room before giving way to a kitchen that was built for people who actually cook. Double oven, gas range, granite countertops, a large island, and ample cabinet space; all of it flowing directly into the family room with its gas fireplace, so the heart of the house always feels connected. The primary suite upstairs is its own retreat, with a sitting area, perfect as a nursery or a reading library (yes it's that large), and soaking tub in the bathroom that make the end of the day feel intentional. The three bedrooms are all generously sized, and then there's the loft! A huge open space that works as a media room, a playroom, a home office, or all three depending on the season of life you're in. And then there's the neighborhood itself. This is one of those rare Wake Forest locations where you can actually leave the car in the garage. Wegmans, restaurants, shopping which is all walkable or bikeable from the front door. The trees out back will still be there in twenty years. So will everything else that makes this address worth coming home to.
