Amazing Gated Property on 5 Acres in Horse Shoe Farm Subdivision in Wake Forest! Close to shopping and schools and just a short stroll to Horse Shoe Farm Nature Preserve, with miles of nearby walking, hiking, and biking trails! Brick columns frame the entrance, while wrought iron fencing--with an added electric gate--provides both elegance and security. The Property offers very private grounds with towering pines and hardwoods and the winding driveway, lined with soft outdoor lighting guides you to a residence perched gracefully on a gently elevated knoll. Well-landscaped grounds change enchantingly with the seasons, offering both beauty and bounty including a grapevine, apple & pear trees. Deer are often seen on the property, along with birds and wildlife. Multiple patios, decks and porches are perfect for entertaining, including around the STUNNING swimming pool with waterfall creating a peaceful retreat. The newly added deck, covered by a pergola, showcases a stone fireplace, perfect for relaxing in the shade during the day -or- enjoying a crackling fire in the evening. The spiral staircase rises from the pool area to a private in-law suite w/balcony--an architectural feature that adds both charm and functionality. The detached garage with giant recreational space, is fully heated and air-conditioned, and offers a beautifully renovated in-law suite with updated appliances, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or additional living space. Moving inside, enjoy extensive updates throughout! The primary suite, living room, breakfast nook (or workspace), kitchen, dining, laundry are on the first floor with stairs down to an expansive den or music room with fireplace. Upstairs, enjoy two additional bedrooms (each with its own balcony!), a large bonus/office space, additional flex space, storage and shared bath. RV or Boat storage, covered parking, garage-shop space, security, and too many extras to list!
