About this property

A Rare Opportunity to Enjoy Acreage Without Leaving Town It's not often you find the privacy of a 1.2-acre homesite with a fenced backyard and no HOA while enjoying all the conveniences of living in the heart of Wake Forest. Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac and backing directly to the Olde Mill Stream section of Richland Creek Greenway, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a lifestyle that's becoming increasingly hard to findpeaceful, private, and surrounded by nature, with no future development behind you. Better yet, Joyner Park is just a short walk away, making it easy to enjoy miles of trails, open green space, and community events. Inside, thoughtful updates and a functional floor plan make everyday living effortless. Beautiful, engineered hardwood floors (2024) flow throughout the main living areas, while the inviting living room features a gas log fireplace, soaring vaulted ceiling, and skylights that fill the space with natural lightcreating the perfect setting for cozy evenings and everyday relaxation. The main-level primary suite provides a private retreat with a spacious walk-in closet and a spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. The well-appointed kitchen is designed for gathering, complete with premium maple cabinetry featuring soft-close doors and drawers and a high-end gas range. A flexible fourth bedroom on the second floor offers endless possibilities as a home office, media room, playroom, or guest bedroom. Step outside and discover why this property is truly special. The fenced backyard offers the perfect blend of space and security for children, pets, and outdoor enjoyment while preserving the property's peaceful setting. Enjoy morning coffee in the sunroom, unwind on the screened porch overlooking protected greenway views, host family and friends on the spacious deck, or spend evenings around the fire pit under the stars. The expansive yard provides room to roam while maintaining the privacy that's nearly impossible to find within town limits. Recent improvementsincluding brand-new vinyl double-hung windows (2025), fresh exterior paint (2024), engineered hardwood flooring (2024), and dual-zone HVACoffer both modern comfort and lasting value. Rarely does a property offer over an acre of land within Wake Forest town limits, a fenced backyard, no HOA, direct greenway frontage, walkability to Joyner Park, and the convenience of nearby shopping, dining, and top amenities. This is more than a beautiful homeit's a unique opportunity to enjoy the space, privacy, and lifestyle that only a property like this can provide.
