## Description

### Agent Description
Updated Home & Rare Wake Forest Property! Nestled on nearly an acre (.91 acres) in one of Wake Forest's most desirable areas, this charming ranch-style home offers the perfect blend of privacy, flexibility, and location. You'll feel tucked away among the trees while still being just minutes from all the shopping, dining, and community events Wake Forest is known for. Step inside to discover three comfortable bedrooms plus two additional flex rooms-ideal for a home office, exercise space, or guest suite. Current owner has added a beautiful screened porch and a spacious deck overlooking wooded views, creating the perfect outdoor retreat for quiet mornings or gatherings. This home has been thoughtfully maintained and updated throughout, including: Spacious new driveway, new primary bedroom carpet and walk-in shower, new heat pump (2025). With no HOA restrictions, you can truly live as you want to live-bring your garden dreams, hobbies, or simply enjoy the peace and space. **Built in 1948 and purchased in 2020 by a licensed GC - many aesthetic improvements were done without record of permits. Septic permit not on file by county. Current owner did use a GC for screen porch and deck build, but permits were not pulled. Permits were pulled to upgrade electric amp on home converting home from propane to electric. Propane tank on property rented from Holding Oil & Gas and only used for cooking.
