Turnkey Poolside Retreat with Workshop & Fenced Oasis in Greenbrier Estates: Loved by the same owners for 30 years and thoughtfully refreshed from top to bottom, this nearly 2,300 sq. ft. split-level home sits on a spacious lot deep in the heart of established Greenbrier Estates—with NO HOA!
Every major improvement is already complete for the next owner, featuring gleaming refinished hardwood floors on the main and upper levels, brand-new LVP flooring and fresh professional paint downstairs (zero carpet throughout!), refreshed landscaping, and a sparkling in-ground saltwater pool that remains open and professionally maintained.
The Heart of the Home: Natural light fills the open main living area, anchored by an upgraded kitchen equipped with a gas range, soft-close cabinetry, abundant storage, and gorgeous granite countertops. French doors open directly onto the expansive back deck for effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Just off the kitchen, a spacious laundry/mudroom provides convenient direct access from the pool and yard—creating an ideal drop zone for drying off wet paws or towels before coming inside. Head out to the fully fenced backyard built for relaxing, entertaining, and sunny afternoons, complete with a concrete grilling patio and private saltwater pool.
Flexible Living & Multi-Generational Layout: Upstairs, refinished hardwoods continue through three bedrooms, including a primary suite with an updated en-suite half bath, plus an updated full hall bath. Downstairs offers remarkable versatility for multi-generational living, guests, or a private in-law/primary suite, with a generous family room and cozy fireplace, a fourth bedroom or home office, and an updated full bathroom. This level also connects directly to an oversized attached garage with a deep rear workshop, supplemented by a detached storage shed for extra gear, tools, and hobbies.
Community & Convenience: Enjoy the best of both worlds: a Raleigh address paired with top-tier Town of Garner services (water, trash, police/fire/EMS, and parks). Greenbrier Estates offers amenities like wide streets, a neighborhood fishing pond, and a town-maintained park with play structures and tennis courts. Target, Lidl, and Lowes Foods are just around the corner, with quick access to I-40 and Downtown Raleigh.

This sold listing offers an updated, airy layout with vaulted ceilings, but it sits on less than half the land size of 4717 Forestdale Road and does not include a garage. In contrast, 4717 Forestdale Road provides a large 2-car garage with a workshop, an in-ground saltwater pool, and a sprawling backyard deck. While both properties showcase clean, move-in-ready living spaces, the extra acreage and outdoor amenities at 4717 Forestdale Road give it a substantial functional edge. Taking into account the size adjustment, the pricing alignment between both homes is very reasonable.
Located in the same neighborhood on a nearly identical lot size, this sold listing offers a newer 2-story floor plan with a main-floor primary suite, bonus room, and screened porch. However, 4717 Forestdale Road provides an enviable outdoor oasis featuring an expansive multi-tier back deck and an in-ground saltwater pool. Both homes feature functional kitchens with solid cabinetry, granite surfaces, and attached two-car garages. With 4717 Forestdale Road priced $60,000 lower, it offers buyers an attractive alternative if having a pool and flexible multi-level space is a priority over extra finished interior square footage.
This sold listing shares the exact same split-level architectural style, 1963 build era, and subdivision setting as 4717 Forestdale Road. While this sold property has slightly more interior square footage, its lower level retains dated wood wall paneling and it completely lacks a garage. 4717 Forestdale Road, meanwhile, delivers an attached two-car garage with a workshop, fully updated bathrooms, consistent modern flooring throughout, and a private backyard pool. Getting these substantial updates and amenities for $26,000 less represents a compelling opportunity.
