Overview

Welcome home to 516 Lakeview Avenue — a 2,078 sq ft gem offering 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a huge bonus room with custom built-in bookshelves, all just steps from Downtown Wake Forest. With NO HOA, bring your boat, RV, or trailer, and paint your front door any color your heart desires! Step inside to a thoughtful layout with plenty of space to live and grow. But the real showstopper? The backyard. The sellers have invested over $20,000 transforming this outdoor space into a true retreat, featuring a cozy fire pit area, a hammock spot made for slowing down, and a stunning, professionally curated landscape bursting with color and life. Enjoy an 18x19 patio with a covered section perfect for entertaining rain or shine, plus a back deck for morning coffee or evening unwinding. A graveled dog run keeps furry friends happy without disturbing the gorgeous plantings, and the entire yard is fully fenced for privacy and peace of mind. Gardeners and nature lovers will be smitten with the variety of plantings throughout the property, including canna lilies, gladiolus, daylilies, bearded irises, bee balm, wildflowers, and blue mist flowers that draw in pollinators all season long. The landscape also features silver euonymus, loropetalum, azaleas, gardenias, and even blackberry and raspberry bushes, along with lush hostas, Lenten rose, and coral bells. Mature redbud, dogwood, little gem magnolia, and a juvenile oak add shade and structure to the backyard oasis. Out front, knockout roses, dahlias, daylilies, more hostas, liriope, and purple tradescantia create fantastic curb appeal. Parking is no problem here — a 2-car garage plus an additional driveway parking space means room for up to 5 vehicles. Location is everything, and this home delivers: restaurants, shopping, and grocery stores are all within a one-mile radius, most of them walkable or bikeable. Enjoy small-town charm with big-time convenience. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a low-maintenance-HOA-free home with a one-of-a-kind outdoor living space in one of Wake Forest's most walkable locations!
