About this home
ONE-OF-A-KIND LUXURY IN WAKE FOREST'S HISTORIC DISTRICT!
Meticulously maintained Georgian home blending timeless charm with high-end updates--truly a rare find! The Chef's kitchen impresses with granite countertops, a center island, farmhouse sink, breakfast nook, custom pantry, and premium appliances including Built-In Sub-Zero refrigeration, Miele coffee system, and Frigidaire induction cooktop (gas available). Designed for entertaining, enjoy a formal dining room with a striking mica ceiling, rich oak hardwoods, and custom finishes throughout. Spacious family room and sunroom each feature fireplaces (never used/coal burning), plus flexible space with built in sink-perfect for art, exercise, or gardening interests.
Upstairs, the hardwoods continue to the generous primary suite with walk-in closet and elegant bath, along with three additional sizable bedrooms and an updated hall bath. Store all your treasures in the roll down, sheet rocked attic. Step outside to your private oasis--saltwater pool with sun shelf, putting green, fish pond with waterfall, and a large screened gazebo with electricity. The perfect space for gatherings with family and friends! Bluestone walkways and a double pit brick BBQ/fireplace create the ultimate setting for entertaining. This is where memories are made!
Additional highlights: whole-house generator, downstairs central vacuum, Nest thermostats, irrigation system-front/back, Marvin windows-double paned/sealed, newer HVAC (2017), basement cellar/workshop, and more.
It's more than a home...it's an experience!...
