Enjoy nearby amenities yet still feel secluded in this unique brick mini-plantation on 3.38 acres of heavily wooded property adjacent to Clemmons Educational State Forest. The home features double gallery porches in the style of old Greek Revival raised plantation homes; the architecture is almost identical to Maison Olivier in Longfellow Evangeline State Historic Site in Louisiana and custom built by Kirby Marshburn. This lovely home has a wood deck, 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 2 half baths, a home office, foyer with marble tile, an over-sized fireplace in the living room, updated kitchen with Wolf induction cooktop and oven, copper tile back splash, granite counters, and a large peninsula open to the dining area plus many other great features! The bathrooms have been newly updated with a curbless walk-in shower and tile! The home also features a courtyard-style front garden complete with a stone patio, firepit, gravel walking paths, and tons of low-maintenance lush landscaping. This property could be a gardener's dream! If you want a great piece of property very near the Wake County line in Clayton, this home is in an ideal location. It's approximately 20 minutes from downtown Raleigh, close to the new Amazon distribution center off I-40 East, and only 3 miles from historic Downtown Clayton. Major shopping centers and restaurants are also nearby (< 5 miles). Properties with this kind of acreage are hard to find, so this is a rare find in the middle of the building boom in Clayton, which is the fastest growing area in North Carolina! Neighborhood Description Clemmon's Creek is one of Clayton's older neighborhoods with lots ranging from 1 acre to 6 acres. Some homes (like this one) border Clemmon's Educational State Forest. Most lots are wooded with either pine, hardwoods, or a mixture of pine and hardwoods. The homes range in styles from contemporary to traditional and are varied. All are custom homes and were not built by a mass-production builder. While the neighborhood does have some restrictive covenants, it does not have a formal HOA or any homeowner's dues.
