A true southern dream awaits at 1700 Talbot Ridge in coveted Wakefield Estates. From the moment you pull into the elegant circle drive you will be awed by the expansive lot and formal landscaping. This custom-built, all-brick home was designed in the classic Greek-revival style, marked by grand columns, a massive wrap-around porch, and upper terrace balcony. The exterior charm continues with an idyllic backyard and interior courtyard with pool, spa and waterfall. The lot backs to the 587 acre Forest Ridge Park allowing direct access to miles of trails, recreation on Falls Lake, nature center, and playgrounds. Inside, a grand foyer welcomes guests. Intricate trim, molding, and archways throughout. Host in the sitting room or family room with carved marble fireplace, built-ins, and views of the pool. The beautiful chef's kitchen connects to both a casual eat-in area and formal dining room. The main-floor primary suite has direct access to the pool courtyard and a charming sun room. Upstairs are four more bedrooms, two with direct access to the upper balcony. The massive bonus room opens up endless possibilities, and on the third floor you'll find another large bonus space perfect for a media room, complete with an adjacent wet bar. 1700 Talbot Ridge excels in function as well as beauty. There's a large laundry room and truly oversized 3 car garage. At over 28' deep, there's space for hobbies, storage, or your boat. Other practical details include an EV charging outlet, whole home water filtration system, tankless hot water heater with recirculation, five HVAC zones, and six irrigation zones. This home is a southern gem with easy access to Wake Forest and Raleigh. Minutes from it all but a world away.
