Property Description
Introducing 334 Woodland Drive, an all brick, Colonial, Revival-style home built in 1940 for Forrest Clonts, history professor at what is now known as Wake Forest University. Once featured in the Wake Forest Historic Home Christmas Tour, this lovely home features five bedrooms, one downstairs, with a seperate entrance, three and a half bathrooms, a large dining room with custom built-in corner cabinets, a massive living room with a fireplace and an entrance to the enclosed porch. Also downstairs is an informal den with rich wood paneling, a fireplace and built in bookshelves. The kitchen in this historic home will take you back in time while providing modern conveniences. The owner's suite upstairs boasts two closets and there are hardwoods and ''period perfect'' tile throughout the home.
The sprawling estate is nestled on 1.39 acres, which offers many opportunities for expansion. Do not miss the massive deck that overlooks the private backyard and leads to an outdoor spa and patio with a brick fireplace.The gas lamp post in front of the home, the gas lantern above the spa, the Juliet balcony, the heavy moulding, the wall niches, and many other touches give this home the character you would expect in an historic home and truly make it a unique gem. The antique furniture pieces, the light fixtures and the assessories add to the allure and nostalgia of a time past....all within walking distance to downtown Wake Forest.
The unfinished basement area can be accessed from the main floor and also from the the two-car carport, while the workshop offers tons of storage and is accessible from a separate back entrance. Enjoy the convenience that a circular driveway behind the home will offer, which also allows for tons of parking.
Foyer chandelier, dining chandelier, office chandelier, antique stove in kitchen will not convey. TV in den, TV in kitchen, refrigerator, washer, dryer, and drapes in living room will convey. Several furniture pieces in the home are for sale and are tagged. Please let me know if you have any questions.
New roof was just installed and an area of siding in the back that was damaged during the roof installation is being replaced. Attic has spray foam insulation. There is a sewer easement to the right of the driveway on the right side of the home. The downstairs bathroom shower pan has a known leak. Seller doesn't know what the electrical outlet in the front is for and has never used it. Deck was permitted and some of the joists are being replaced in the next week or so. Come take in this rare and unique treasure in downtown Wake Forest! Schedule a showing or I can give you a private tour. Showings begin on Friday, January 26th. Open House on Sunday, 1/28/24 from 1pm-4pm, weather permitting.
