About This Home

As of May 2025

Nestled in a serene cul-de-sac and backing to peaceful woodlands, this custom-built home offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and nature. The tranquil setting of the back porch is a true retreat, ideal for enjoying the beauty of the surrounding wildlife. On those cozy NC days, the family room features a gas fireplace and is enhanced by the architecture of exposed beams and useful built-ins. Large windows offer picturesque views of the outdoors, with the family room opening directly to the generously sized screened-in porch, perfect for entertaining or simply unwinding while taking in the sights and sounds of nature. The heart of the home is the gourmet kitchen, with gorgeous granite countertops, a gas chef's stove, and a window-lined breakfast nook that floods the space with natural light and scenic views of the woods. The layout is designed for versatile living, with a first-floor primary suite that boasts a tray ceiling and a spa-like bath with a walk-in tile shower and dual vanity. A second bedroom suite on the main level serves as an ideal guest room or could easily be used as a home office or in-law suite, offering flexibility for any lifestyle. For additional privacy and comfort, the second-floor suite offers even more options. The large bonus room provides endless possibilities as an entertainment center, adding valuable space for relaxation or recreation. Storage is abundant throughout the home, including custom-built closets, a fully insulated walk-in crawl space, and generous walk-in attic spaces. The garage is equipped with a new floor coating (2024), and new oversized gutters were installed in 2024 as well. A well-appointed drop zone from the garage ensures the household stays organized. This custom-built home is filled with thoughtful upgrades from the builder, showcasing quality craftsmanship and attention to detail at every turn. Enjoy the convenience of being just 10 minutes away from the vibrant offerings of downtown Wake Forest, Joyner Park, and local shops and restaurants, with an easy commute to Raleigh.
