A truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity— this extraordinary 4.27-acre estate is being offered for the very first time. Held within the same family for generations, this magical estate backs to the Falls Lake Reserve on two sides, offering unmatched privacy, protected views, and a setting that simply cannot be recreated. The meticulously maintained 3,280 sq ft home features 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, a loft, and a 2-car garage. A rocking-chair front porch overlooks one of two fenced pastures, while a large covered back porch invites quiet mornings and peaceful evenings surrounded by nature. Timeless character is found throughout the home with tin-punch cabinets, a stone fireplace, antique light fixtures, and thoughtful custom details. The land is unrestricted, providing incredible flexibility for equestrian use, homesteading, or creating a private estate. Existing infrastructure includes a 1,580 sq ft barn with two stalls, riding arena, two pastures, an additional 840 sq ft garage, plus water and power already in place. Whether you choose to enjoy the home as-is, renovate, or expand, this property offers a rare canvas in an irreplaceable setting. Despite its privacy, the location is highly convenient—just minutes to Hwy 98, I-540, grocery stores, North Raleigh, and Wake Forest. Properties with this combination of land, privacy, proximity, and generational history rarely come to market. This is a special offering that must be experienced in person to fully appreciate.
