This is the kind of tract that doesn't come up, not "rare" in the way every listing claims to be, but actually rare: a single contiguous parcel this size, this close to Raleigh and Wake Forest, with road frontage and RAG zoning that leaves your options open. Hunting land. Tree farm. Future subdivision. Or just 23 acres nobody else can build next to you on. The house holds its own too! 3 bed, 2 bath ranch, primary suite on the main floor, front porch, back deck, wood-burning fireplace, and a pool that turns "23 acres" into "23 acres and I never have to leave. " Outside: a 2025-built 50x30 shelter, a 30x24 garage with workshop space, a pond with its own trail, deer already on camera. Well and septic. Fiber internet reaches out here, so "remote" doesn't mean "cut off. " Land like this gets bought once a generation, then held for the next one. This is that listing.
Country living at it's best! 23 acres of total privacy w/ fantastic home and detached 2 car garage. Open floorplan with huge rooms; split bedroom plan; huge mudroom w/ side entry; huge master w/ his & hers bathrooms; large 2ndary BRs; crown molding t/o; ceiling fans in all BRs and LR; Island kitchen w/ breakfast area. W/ D & FRIDGE STAY! See notes on pictures for full details!
