Wake Forest, NC 27587Nearly an Acre. No HOA. And That Screened Porch. Some homes check boxes. This one changes your pace of life. Tucked among the trees on .91 acres in one of Wake Forest's most coveted pockets, 2428 Rachel Drive offers something increasingly rare -- real breathing room, with zero HOA. You're minutes from everything Wake Forest has to offer, but out here, it feels a world away. The ranch-style layout gives you 3 bedrooms plus 2 flex rooms -- room to work from home, host guests, or finally claim that dedicated hobby space. When the day winds down, you'll head straight to the screened porch or the spacious deck, where wooded views and total quiet are the only agenda. Recent updates have been done right: brand-new driveway, fresh carpet in the primary bedroom, a new walk-in shower, and a new heat pump (2025). Bring your garden. Bring your vision. Just bring yourself. -- Disclosure -- Built 1948; purchased 2020 and some aesthetic improvements completed without recorded permits. Septic permit not on file with county. Screened porch and deck built by GC without permits. Electrical upgrade (propane to electric conversion) was permitted. Propane tank on property is rented from Holding Oil & Gas; used for cooking only.
