Set on a stunning 1.3-acre lot, this former Parade home offers the perfect blend of privacy, space, and convenience in Wake Forest, North Carolina. Being sold by its original owners, the home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully cared for, including a new roof installed in 2022.

Designed with a sprawling story-and-a-half floorplan, the home lives beautifully like a ranch, featuring an open layout, soaring ceilings, and an abundance of windows and doors that fill the space with natural light and seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living--making it perfect for entertaining. Covered porches can be accessed from multiple points throughout the home, including the primary suite, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow.

The main level includes multiple living areas along with two bedrooms--each with en suite baths--including a spacious primary suite, creating an ideal setup for comfort and flexibility. A large mudroom with sink adds everyday convenience and function. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a full bath, a half bath, and a large bonus room perfect for guests, hobbies, or entertaining.

With 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a half bath, the layout offers both function and versatility. What truly sets this property apart are the grounds. Extensive hardscaping and mature landscaping create a private, retreat-like setting, while the covered porches and outdoor living spaces invite you to relax and host with ease year-round. An irrigation system makes lawn care effortless, and a dedicated fenced garden area with its own extensive irrigation offers the perfect space for growing and enjoying your own garden.

More than just a house, this has truly been a home--a place of connection and gathering, thoughtfully designed for entertaining both indoors and out. Its owners, longtime restaurateurs, have cultivated not only the land but a lifestyle, growing fresh produce from the garden and welcoming friends and family to share in it. Now, it's ready for its next chapter.

Tucked away yet incredibly convenient, this home is just minutes from shopping and dining in Wake Forest, offers an easy commute to both Raleigh and Durham, and is close to Falls Lake for outdoor recreation.
