Custom Built home modeled after the 'tiny home' craze but with more space! This 1 bed 1 bath with a vaulted ceiling and huge loft (that could potentially be a guest room or living room) is so amazing and rare to find this close to Downtown Raleigh. A large . 68 acre lot with trees and a nice patio make it the perfect getaway from the bustle of DT Raleigh yet only 10-15min away. Very efficient, very affordable and very cool.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
