Description

Rarely do opportunities arise to own one of the cherished homes overlooking the private pond in Coley Forest. Technically Coley Lake, neighbors and dog walkers catch occasional glimpses of this magical spot in one of the prettiest neighborhoods of all of Raleigh as they walk down Sussex Road and peer through the trees between houses. Here, you will likely spend long afternoons enjoying the peacefulness, serenity and views of the pond beyond from your perch on the uncommonly large and long back deck...Rarely do opportunities arise to own one of the cherished homes overlooking the private pond in Coley Forest. Technically Coley Lake, neighbors and dog walkers catch occasional glimpses of this magical spot in one of the prettiest neighborhoods of all of Raleigh as they walk down Sussex Road and peer through the trees between houses. Here, you will likely spend long afternoons enjoying the peacefulness, serenity and views of the pond beyond from your perch on the uncommonly large and long back deck which stretches the length of the home. More than a half-acre is included here, and whilst in the backyard and park-like setting it's easy to forget that one is in the heart of inside-the-beltline Raleigh. This home, originally constructed in 1968 but given a substantial overhaul in 2007, was built to embrace its position amidst the oaks, pines and magnolias. There's a private balcony off the primary bedroom, a primary viewing deck accessed from the kitchen and family room, and a covered patio off the large walk-out finished basement. The floorplan is Old World traditional and includes a separate dining room and large formal living room. The family room and fireplace overlook the open kitchen. The bulk of the bedrooms are upstairs, along with the bonus room over garage and a sneaky connector room that could be all kinds of marvelous things. The basement is truly enormous, with a built-in wet bar and several large open spaces that could play host to games or media or workout spaces. As a whole, this home is a canvas for its next forever owners to dream and create. Live in it just the way it is or create an entirely new vision. Anything is possible here thanks to the setting, the lot and the location. We look forward to welcoming you to this special home in this incredible neighborhood.
