## Description

### Agent Description
Rare opportunity in the heart of Wake Forest! This 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom fixer-upper offers incredible potential for investors, builders, or buyers looking to renovate and add value. Located on historic North Main Street just outside the Wake Forest Historic District, the property may offer additional development opportunities. Per preliminary discussions with town staff, buyers may explore options for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or potential expanded development, subject to town approvals, watershed regulations, site plan review, and all applicable zoning requirements. Existing home features covered front porch. Excellent opportunity for renovation or rental income in a rapidly growing area.
