This property announces itself with scale and quiet — 2.3 acres of level grounds centered around a private pond, just off Clearsprings Drive in the established Clear Springs neighborhood. Built in 1999 and offering 3,204 square feet, the home balances comfortable family living with purposeful outbuildings: a 12x24 climate-controlled workshop and a private guest suite above the garage that includes its own living area and full bath.
Step inside to spaces sized for everyday life and occasional entertaining. A luminous den with generous windows and a fireplace anchors the main level; bedrooms are well proportioned and privacy-minded. The primary suite is designed for relaxed luxury, with a whirlpool tub, separate walk-in shower and dual vanities. With central heat and air and a shingle roof in good condition, the house reflects steady maintenance and practical systems.
The property's layout makes it ideal for multi-generational living or hosting longer-term guests. The guest suite above the garage offers a separate entry and living area—a ready-made retreat for visiting family or a private home office. The workshop is a standout for hobbyists or small-scale projects, finished for climate control and easily accessed from the driveway.
Outside, the pond and sweeping lawn create a pastoral setting that feels detached from everyday traffic yet remains convenient to Wake Forest amenities. Heritage Golf Club is about 2.5 miles away, downtown Wake Forest under 3 miles, and Falls Lake State Recreation Area roughly 5 miles—plenty of options for weekend recreation. The property is on a septic system and the expansive lot will require routine upkeep; those stewardship tasks preserve what is a rare parcel size so close to town.
Financially, assessed value data and recent neighborhood sales suggest meaningful upside: current valuation analysis places a likely market range between $800,000 and $850,000. With no HOA and a mix of practical and recreational features — pond, workshop, guest suite — this home is well suited for buyers seeking space, flexibility, and proximity to Wake Forest's top-rated schools and regional amenities. Showings by appointment; sellers request verification of septic and pond records as part of due diligence.
Clear Springs offers a semi-rural feel with large parcels and mature trees while keeping Wake Forest's small-town conveniences within easy reach. Families are drawn here for highly rated schools—Jones Dairy Elementary and Heritage Middle—and for proximity to downtown Wake Forest’s cafés, boutiques and community events. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate being minutes from Heritage Golf Club and a short drive to Falls Lake for boating, hiking and fishing. The neighborhood attracts buyers looking for space, privacy and convenient access to the Triangle’s employment centers.
Wake Forest's housing market continues to attract buyers seeking more land and larger single-family homes. The local median listing price is approximately $550,000 and homes in the area average about 69 days on market; however, properties with unusual lot sizes or unique amenities—like a private pond, guest suite, or dedicated workshop—typically command a premium and sell at a faster pace when priced correctly. Recent nearby sales range from roughly $470K for smaller homes to nearly $890K for larger comparables, underscoring strong demand for spacious parcels. Inventory has tightened in many Wake Forest submarkets as population growth and school quality keep buyer interest high. For this home type—large-lot single-family residences—this is closer to a seller-advantaged segment: limited supply of comparable lots means buyers motivated by acreage and privacy will face competition. That said, prudent buyers can still find value by verifying maintenance items (septic, pond) and leveraging the relatively lower assessed value reflected in public records.
