Welcome to 1536 Crickett Road, where flexibility, privacy, and opportunity come together on a rare 1.82-acre homesite just outside Raleigh. Designed to function as two homes in one, this unique property offers exceptional versatility for multigenerational living, extended family, guests, income-producing rental potential, or simply the ability to spread out and enjoy separate living spaces under one roof. Tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac and surrounded by wooded views, this move-in-ready home offers the freedom of country living with no HOA and no city taxes. The main level features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including the primary suite, along with a spacious living area, dining space, and an updated kitchen complete with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The fully finished lower level provides a second independent living space with its own bedroom, full bathroom, kitchen, living area, dining space, laundry, and two additional recreation rooms that can easily serve as offices, hobby spaces, fitness rooms, or additional guest accommodations. Step outside and discover what truly sets this property apart. The expansive 1.82-acre lot provides room to roam, play, garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings. A deck, patio, brick fire pit, and storage shed create inviting outdoor spaces that make it easy to enjoy the property's privacy and wooded setting year-round. Despite its secluded feel, the location remains incredibly convenient. Situated between Raleigh, Knightdale, Clayton, and Wendell, you'll enjoy easy access to everyday amenities while maintaining the privacy and space that are increasingly difficult to find. Downtown Raleigh is approximately 20 minutes away, while Knightdale is just 10 minutes away and both Clayton and Wendell are approximately 15 minutes from the property.

A limited number of nonresidential uses are also allowed. Some nonresidential uses are permitted by-right; others are allowed only within designated activity centers and then only if the Board of Adjustment first reviews and approves a site plan and Special Use Permit for such use.
