Property description
Welcome Home to this adorable bungalow centrally located within a few minutes to downtown Wake Forest, Heritage, Wegmans and Gateway Commons. Originally built in 1944, this home was lovingly updated with an effective age of 2007 according to tax records. Boasting beautiful hardwood floors, a tiled walk in shower, ceramic floors in bathroom, master bedroom with a walk in closet, an open and bright kitchen w/ island, walk in pantry, built in desk and large dining area and an open laundry room. With the finished walk up attic, this home lives like 1300 sq ft- imagine an extra bedroom, bonus room, home office, artist space or easy storage- plenty of room, but due to new ANSI requirements the ceiling must be 7' to count in square footage and this is 6'6". The yard is partially fenced with a nice storage shed and ramp. The backyard is private and has a small garden area with plenty of room to expand or enhance the outdoor living space. Not too big and not too small- this home is the perfect fit! Welcome Home!
