About This Home

As of December 2024

Wake up, Wake Forest! A refreshingly modern take on sweet suburban living is sprouting on the cusp of Downtown. Welcome to Forest on Franklin. This twelve-townhome collection was crafted by local building experts and curated to complement the existing community. But don't mistake its cohesion as being cookie-cutter. These boutique builds break from typical farmhouse-styling to embrace a refined twist on tradition, emboldened by modern accents at every turn. While every home is equipped with two-car garages, screened-in patios and ample flex space, three distinct plans offer differing treatments for the 2,500+ SQ FT of light-flooded living space. From elevators (in select plans) to varying 3-4 BR options, each layout offers its own take on high-style, low-maintenance living. Intuitively hybrid. Holistically inclined. And with neighbors like Downtown WF & Falls Lake? Balancing work & play is a breeze. Embed yourself in the booming brewery culture, or break a sweat on the trails - there's plenty to see only seconds away. Plus, commuter-friendly access to DTR & RTP guarantees you're never far from the action.
