1610 Twin Oak Drive, Fayetteville, NC 28305

Built in 1941 and unlike anything else in Forest Lake. Heart pine floors. Two wood-burning fireplaces. An outdoor cabin where the oyster roasts used to go until midnight. This is the kind of home Fayetteville stopped building eighty years ago. Set on nearly an acre in the Forest Lake neighborhood - close to Highland Country Club - this 4-bedroom, 3

.5-bath custom-built home offers 2,670 square feet of one-story living with the proportions and craftsmanship that modern construction simply can't replicate -- rich wood moldings, beamed ceilings, built-in bookcases and a classic wet bar in the family room.

A screened porch off a French door that overlooks a courtyard with a fountain.. The primary suite has a vaulted wood ceiling and a walk-in closet. The guest wing is genuinely functional: one bedroom with its own en suite and balcony, one with built-in bunk beds and a bay window perfect for kids, and a third sharing a Jack & Jill bath.

The formal living and dining rooms are set up for the kind of entertaining that doesn't happen on a deck. Out back: a freestanding cabin with its own fireplace - a private retreat, a studio, a party space or a future pool house. Whatever you need it to be. If you've been looking for something with real bones, real history and the space to dream, this is it.
