Raleigh, NC 27612Accepting Backup Offers! Welcome to beautiful Brookhaven! This lovely partial brick home is nestled in among mature trees and landscaping, while centralized within Raleigh and Wake county close to shopping, dining, and major commuting highways to get anywhere you need to go. First you will notice a great rocking chair front porch, one of four beautiful outdoor living spaces. Entering you will be greeted in the long foyer by gleaming hardwoods and notice the generous powder room to your left. The entry from the garage is off to the right and directly across that you find your updated kitchen and breakfast room, for easy entry when your arms are full of groceries! Granite countertops, white cabinets, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and more adorn this working space. Notice the built in microwave and incredible double door oven. Just squeeze the extra handle. You can have one giant chamber or insert a divider into the oven for 2 chambers. Great flexibility! The extended prep counter connects to the breakfast room, as natural light filters in. A formal dining room is just across the foyer with lovely columns and boasts its own very unique and private dining or relaxing side deck! Your family room is next and notice the wet bar and beautifully updated fireplace mantle. Yes, this is a wood burning fireplace with proper chimney to enjoy on cozy winter nights! Check out the amazing and giant rear deck. It is freshly stained and painted! This is a fantastic entertaining spot with a beautiful falling water feature and pond. Plenty of room for casual seating area and dining and bar areas as desired! Back inside you will find your main floor master retreat featuring a walk-in closet, a special private screened porch with a large storage closet, and an incredible recently updated master bath. The extra large walk in shower is huge with beautiful river rock style floors and lovely natural light. It is designed to refresh and energize you! An exquisite dual vanity has been updated with cabinets, granite, and lighting. The bath also features tile floors and a linen closet. Before you head upstairs, notice the built in new shelves and drawers in the foyer next to the stairs. This area is now both functional and beautiful! Upstairs there is a loft and two large secondary bedrooms. Both feature large double closets extending an entire wall width! A large shared bath in between the bedrooms has two separate vanities and you will see the potential some simple updates could bring. Don't miss the cute storage shed outside with its own deck in the backyard and of course the large 2 car garage seals the deal with an added 30 amp RV plug outside to the right. Rest easy knowing a 30 year architectural shingle roof was installed on 2010, your HVAC was installed in 2015 and has enjoyed routine checks. The water heater was new in 2020. All utilities are electric and high speed internet is available. Sellers used Google Fiber. Come home to Brookhaven!
