Home Description

This is a one of a kind find in the heart of Wake Forest, walkable to downtown, impeccably maintained, beautifully renovated. The front porch with swing welcomes you! 10' ceilings grace the main floor. Enter and you will fall in love with the formal dining room, large living room with wood burning fireplace, updated kitchen with beautiful cabinets, premium appliances including 5 burner gas range, hood, built in fridge, beverage fridge, microwave, dishwasher. There is under cabinet lighting, tile backsplash, granite counters and a coffered ceiling. Don't miss the walk in pantry. den, bedroom & full bath. The lower level boasts 3 other bedrooms plus an office/flex space. One of the bedrooms is being used as a huge closet space with custom closet design. Hardwoods flow throughout most of the home. Designer paint touches in several rooms. There is also a large unfinished utility room where the laundry hookups are that offers great storage or an exercise space. There is a screened breakfast porch off the kitchen and a lower deck. An oversized , fully insulated, detached garage with finished space above with heating/ac units was added in 2008 with permit, however the renovations/upgrades in home & to deck were done by professional contractors but not permitted. The 449 sq ft in detached note in mls is finished space above garage. There is an electric gate on the driveway that leads to the detached garage and fenced yard. The crawlspace was encapsulated in 2012.There is baseboard heating in hallway on lower level but not used. Storm door & storm windows. Unknown as to why there is a discrepancy in sq ftge from mls as these owners have not added/finished any additional interior space. Alarm system, washer and dryer do not convey.
