About this property
12 guest, family &dog friendly home on ½ acre in Wake Forest, NC
Enjoy a peaceful stay at LunaTerra, our nine bed home set on a magical ½ acre partially wooded lot. Experience instant tranquility as you soak in the scenery from the grand screened-in porch or expansive back patio. Follow the amazing natural lighting as the sun rises in the front of the house and sets in the back.
Our home is perfectly located, close to Raleigh and Durham, within 10 minutes to Downtown Wake Forest and multiple groceries stores, including our beloved Wegmans.

Room 3: Queen
Room 4: 2 twin bunk beds
Room 5: Twin / Full bunk bed with office space and kids play area
Outdoor Space:
We love the house but the ½ acre of yards, wildlife and tranquility is our favorite aspect of this property. Sometimes best enjoyed in the screened in porch and other times enjoyed on the tree swing. Enjoyable anytime of year due to successional gardening.
Family Friendly Amenities:
2 Pack 'n Plays, a high chair, booster seat, kids dinnerware and board games, wooden play kitchens and books to help keep all ages entertained.

Late check-out of noon is $100 and must be approved 24 hours in advance. Late check-out without prior approval is not allowed and will result in added fees. Any check-outs after 1pm will incur a charge of the nightly rate due to our inability to have the home ready by 4pm for our next guests.
Kitchen:
Fully equipped and stocked with organic olive oil and spices. The Main table can seat 8-10 table and chairs. Teak table in screened-in porch can accommodate 8+. Chef’s counter can accommodate another 4.

Why they chose this property
We love the tranquil LunaTerra neighborhood with mature trees and sidewalk lined streets.
What makes this property unique
LunaTerra is a 9 bed, 5 bedroom home on ½ acre ethereal wooded lot with a landscaped front & backyard; every month a new plant is blooming. The natural light starts in the front of the house in the morning and wraps around the house in the afternoon while you relax enjoy the screened-in porch while listening to all of the wildlife.
