Charming cottage living just steps from downtown Wake Forest. This inviting home has been thoughtfully updated with new flooring, fresh paint, kitchen cabinets and appliances, while maintaining the character that makes a cottage feel like home. Both bathrooms have been updated with vanities and toilets. The roof was replaced August 19th, 2026. Set on a lovely street in an idyllic neighborhood with its own private park, this is a location that makes everyday living feel special. Start your morning with a walk to the local coffee shop, browse the antique shops, meet friends for lunch, or enjoy dinner at one of downtown's cafés and restaurants-all just a short stroll from your front door. A charming home, a wonderful neighborhood, and one of Wake Forest's most desirable locations. Truly a special place to call home.
