Situated on a spacious .92-acre lot, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath manufactured home (1986) offers opportunity, flexibility, and convenience just minutes from the city. The interior features an open living room and dining area, a functional kitchen, and an enclosed back porch that adds additional usable space. A brand-new HVAC unit (2024) provides central heating and air for year-round comfort. The home is serviced by a leased propane tank and includes a 2-car carport located directly beside the home. The property sits near the end of a state-maintained road, offering a quieter setting with no known HOA, no known restrictions, and no city taxes. Exterior deferred maintenance is present, and interior repairs are needed in the laundry room—the home is already priced with these repairs in mind. Low-ball offers will not be considered. The house is already priced below market value, even considering the condition. Not eligible for FHA, USDA, or VA financing. Cash offers are preferred. Some conventional loans may be considered with a strong down payment. A unique chance to own acreage close to Downtown Raleigh—bring your vision and make it your own.
