Very unique studio apartment located in country setting on private lake.
This is a totally separate-from-the-house unit above our detached garage.
At approximately 700 square feet, it’s enough room to relax or get your work done.
The deck overlooks our private lake, and you can use our canoe and/or jon boat as much as you like.
We look forward to hosting you, and please contact us with any questions.
The space
Less than 30 minutes from the heart of downtown Raleigh and about 15 from downtown Wake Forest, but feels like you are miles away from it all, secluded and peaceful. Very convenient to multiply local retail outlets, restaurants, recreational lakes & parks, schools, hospitals & clinics, entertainment & sporting venues, airports, etc., etc. set in an extremely private & safe neighborhood.

Guest access
Lots of room to spread out! You can use the apartment, its large deck with partial lake view, and the surrounding neighborhood areas. You also have access & use of our private beach & outdoor fireplace & the lake for fishing, boating (no motor boats allowed), swimming, hiking or just relaxing.
This detached above garage apartment is a separate stand alone structure located behind our main house, with its own private secured entrance.
Other things to note
You will have to drive down an unpaved road for about a mile to access this unit & the private lake gated neighborhood (the gate currently remains open so no access gate code is necessary). This road is graded to remain passable to varying degrees, but always drive slowly & cautiously as a precaution.
Please note that after extremely heavy rainfall the lake can & will overflow the City of Raleigh installed concrete spillway, but very rarely is it not passable & even then only temporary until the overflow recedes.
