Wake Forest

Wake Forest real estate is located in one of the most desirable parts of North Carolina, just north of the town of Raleigh and south of the smaller city of Youngsville in Franklin County. Wake Forest was the home of Wake Forest University for over 100 years until the campus moved west to the Winston-Salem area. Part of the area that includes the Research Triangle Park of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, Wake Forest residents are always close to these major municipal centers for work, school, or to enjoy the nightlife these larger cities have to offer.
