Property details
About 218 Forestville Rd
Take a little step back in time when homes weren't as pretentious and prices weren't outrageous. This solid, brick home sits on a 0.34 acre lot and has character now but with great potential for more to come. Located on the outskirts of the Raleigh side of Wake Forest, the nearby conveniences of Heritage and Wakefield abound. From restaurants to grocery, medical to entertainment, the options are endless. While the home was built in the 60s, just taking out one wall could make it feel like it was a more modern floorplan. The home has mostly hardwoods, which have been refinished and is just waiting for someone to put on the finishing touches. It has a quaint, covered front porch that offers the simple pleasures of a rocking chair evening. The backyard is level and is showcased by hickory trees and a storage shed.
