A gas hookup for the stove is an added bonus. Rounding out this well-designed townhome is a flexible first-floor space: a bedroom and full bathroom offer options for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. Head upstairs to the primary suite with an ensuite and large walk in closet. This space is complemented by a third bedroom -- and another full bath!- creating a private retreat for family or guests. There are lighted storage areas in the upstairs bedrooms and a hallway closet. You will see that the owners have meticulously maintained the home and many features have been recently updated including a new roof (4 1/2 years old), new paint throughout, and laundry room updates, just to name a few. Enjoy resort-style amenities just steps from your door -- golf at Heritage (https://www.playheritagegolf.com/), walk to the Greenway or to the neighborhood pool, cast a line in the stocked fishing pond, or sit and enjoy the butterfly park. The HOA board frequently plans events at the Heritage Spring gazebo and is a great way to get to know the wonderful people who live in the neighborhood. This is more than a home -- it's a lifestyle of comfort, convenience, and community. Don't miss your opportunity to make it yours.

Rooted in Wake Forest history and lovingly reimagined for modern life, this ranch-style mill home, originally part of the Royal Mill village, blends preserved character with fully updated infrastructure. Held by its original owners until the 1980s, the home has been painstakingly renovated by the current owners to retain its historic charm while being brought fully to modern code for today's lifestyle. High ceilings, portions of original hardwood floors, and the welcoming front porch serve as timeless nods to its mill-era origins. Thoughtfully reimagined living and bedroom spaces allow the home to live far larger than its footprint, offering an airy, open feel throughout. The renovated kitchen anchors the home with a large island, abundant cabinetry, and walk-in pantry, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, while the expansive main-floor primary suite features a massive walk-in closet and beautifully updated spa-style bath.
