About this home
Exquisitely-crafted home in sought-after Brighton Forest. Custom built by highly-respected Robuck Homes Triangle LLC, and lovingly maintained, this one-owner home is truly exceptional! Great curb appeal with classic Craftsman architecture including rocking-chair-style front porch, beautiful solid-wood front door, and exquisite stone exterior accents. The corner lot is almost one-third-acre, is beautifully landscaped, and has irrigation. The home features over 3,500 square feet of thoughtfully-designed living area including six bedrooms (or five bedrooms and recreation room), plus convenient home office. The gracious foyer greets you and your guests. The foyer is flanked by a large formal dining room with coffered ceiling and a home office with French doors. There are hardwood floors throughout the main level living areas. The open-concept family room, kitchen, and breakfast area is ideal for entertaining or quiet times with family. The family room has a cozy gas-log, stacked-stone fireplace surrounded by custom built-in book shelves and cabinets. A triple window overlooks the screened porch and verdant backyard beyond. The kitchen is spacious and features white cabinets and quartz countertops. Stainless-steel appliances include dishwasher, 5-burner gas cooktop, and wall ovens. The kitchen is light and bright with recessed and under-cabinet lighting, and pendant lighting over the counter-height bar seating area. A delightful breakfast area overlooks the patio. A convenient butler's pantry with glass-front cabinets bridges the kitchen and dining room. It is a great spot for a wine bar or coffee station. The kitchen has a generously-sized pantry with wood shelving. There is a bedroom with an en suite full bath on the main level--great for guests or family members who prefer not to climb stairs. A powder room with pedestal sink rounds out the first floor. Upstairs you will find five additional bedrooms. One has double doors and could be a recreation room, or second home office. The primary suite features a large bedroom with hardwood flooring, multiple windows, and an amazing closet with custom shelving and drawers. The en suite primary bath is luxurious. Like a page from an architectural digest, the large oval soaking tub is set in a arched alcove with a tile platform and large window with plantation shutters. There are two large vanities with granite countertops and rectangular under-mount porcelain sinks. The bathroom has a custom-tiled shower and a separate water closet, plus two linen closets. All of the bedrooms have plantation shutters and ceiling fans. Bedrooms 3, 4, 5, and 6 have newly-installed plush carpet. The laundry room is on this level. The walk-up unfinished attic has a 21x25 floored space and a dormer window. Enjoy the temperate North Carolina weather on the screened porch with Eze Breeze windows. Soak up the sun on the flagstone patio, and enjoy the fall nights at the firepit on its own raised patio. There is an 8x12 storage shed for your gardening gear and outdoor sports equipment. The backyard is level and fully fenced—great for play or pets. The fence has been newly replaced. Two-car garage and plenty of driveway parking. Brighton Forest has a delightful neighborhood swimming pool with clubhouse and playground. The neighborhood has a true ''town and country'' feel. It is adjacent to Hilltop Needmore Town Park. The location is very convenient: five minutes to NC540. Seven minutes to the Wake Tech main campus, 10 minutes to Crossroads Plaza, 12 minutes to Lake Wheeler Park (with a 650-acre lake and 150 acres of parkland). Less than 30 minutes to RDU International Airport. Less than 30 minutes to downtown Raleigh with its convention center, and world-class museums and performing arts venues. The nearby downtown areas of both Fuquay Varina and Holly Springs offer restaurants and vibrant night life. This home is an awesome blend of craftsmanship, architectural detail, thoughtful floorplan design, and location....
