Property Description

Step back in time to one Raleigh's most beloved neighborhoods, Forest Park, where history and modern amenities combine. Forest Park features grand historic homes with pampered gardens and three lush neighborhood parks dating back to the turn of the century. Built in 1920, 120 Forest Road embodies Southern charm starting with the wrap-around front porch, complete with 'Haint Blue' ceilings. Inside, a wide foyer introduces the formal living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace and original oak hardwood floors that run throughout the home. The formal dining room offers a space for elevated dining, while the light filled open floorplan of the keeping room, kitchen and breakfast room is the heart of the home. Huge windows bathe this area with sunlight and provide tree-filled views that will make any architecture buff nod in approval. Just off the kitchen, a spacious screened porch creates the perfect spot for entertaining, dining, or relaxing with a good book. The main-floor guest suite provides flexibility for visitors or multi-generational living. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms, a full bath, a den, and the primary bedroom w ensuite bath. Storage is abundant with a walk-up floored attic and a 1,258 sqft unfinished basement. The property also includes a curb cut with driveway potential, leading to the original garage along the alley, giving buyers the option to add off-street parking. Forest Park is highly sought after not just for its historic charm, but for its urban lifestyle. Ditch your car and walk to schools, the Village District, Glenwood, downtown Raleigh, NC State, Fred Fletcher Park, Pullen Park, the YMCA - all the things that make our quaint city unique.
