About this home
Experience the joy of an extensively renovated historical home that blends modern comfort and style with touches of the past. The Simmons-Allen House, in Wake Forest's historic district, was built in 1883 with subsequent addition in the early 1900s and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It's a piece of history reimagined for modern living. 2018, the current owners began an intense renovation project that included a full kitchen remodel, creation of a family room with gas fireplace, primary bath addition, a bedroom ensuite remodel, HVAC updates, major electrical improvements including new main/sub panels/creating underground power line to the home/new outlets and switches, , plumbing updates including tankless water heater, foundation repairs, new 1st floor subfloor and engineered hardwood flooring, detached garage improvements, new driveway/parking, side entrance w/brick stoop, mud room, custom built-ins, and a remarkable array of cosmetic improvements including new light fixtures throughout. For your outdoor enjoyment, a fully fenced in backyard provides privacy, a large deck, patio, and fire pit. The result of the owner's hard work is a move-in ready and stress-free property where every detail has been addressed so you can enjoy the beauty of a historic home without the worry of major projects. You'll fall in love with its location on Wake Forest's most picturesque street and the convenience of being within walking distance to downtown Wake Forest.
