Rooftop Terrace Townhomes in Wake Forest

• Written on July 10, 2018 By Stanley Martin Homes

There's something special about a rooftop terrace. It's a peaceful, quiet outdoor space that lifts you just a little closer to the sky-the perfect place to read a book, sip some sweet tea and let time worry about itself. You have a stunning view, whether you're gazing out over the beauty of nature or the bustle of the sprawling cityscape.

When you choose a Stanley Martin home at the Retreat at Renaissance-one of Wake Forest's newest planned communities-a rooftop terrace and loft with wet bar is an optional addition to your third level and a design that is equal parts sleek, smart and stylish.

The Ella model defies the space limitations typical of most townhomes. The main level floorplan features a streamlined open flow from the family room to the kitchen, making it spacious and cozy at the same time. Test out new recipes or serve up perfected favorites. Host a themed potluck or film your very first YouTube tutorial. It's where beauty meets function, and you'll want to put it to use and show it off. Three bedrooms and two and a half baths add to your home's comfort, but the highlight of the owner's suite is a walk-in closet so huge, Carrie Bradshaw would be jealous.

The standard one-car garage is an added advantage and, with plenty of custom upgrades and options, this home defines luxurious comfort. Install a washer and dryer on the upper level for even more convenience. Choose a screened or covered porch, or a deck or patio to relax in the soft Carolina breeze.

On date nights and days out, you're within a short walking distance of local hot spots like Brooks Street Bowl or White Street Brewing Company. The amenities of the good life are all right here for you. Homes start at an affordable $262,990. Come in, tour a model and be prepared to want to stay.
