The Market is Hopping!

The market is hopping and this house is still available! I know, I can't believe it either. This house is still on the market waiting to find the perfect buyer who will truly appreciate all that this home has to offer. Are you that special someone this home is looking for???

To 'borrow' a bit from a favorite comedian of mine, Jeff Foxworthy:

You might be the perfect buyer for this home if...

You have a horse or two that you are tired of paying to board somewhere else...
You would like to ride your horse on your property...
You like the feel of the country but are forced to work in the city...
You married someone who loves the country and you are trying to find the perfect compromise...
You don't like paying city taxes...
You would rather look at trees than into your neighbor's windows...
You like the smell of fresh air and not car exhaust...
You love an open floor plan that is easy to entertain in...
You appreciate a ranch style home with few stairs to navigate...
You are a car enthusiast who cannot find a garage big enough...
You love to see wildlife out your window...
You like the smell and feel of brand new carpet...
You are thrilled when your agent says - newer roof...
You don't agree with today's builders who call a 4 foot garden tub a soaking tub...
You like the idea of a cedar lined closet but feel you could put your handyman skills to work and convert it back to a working sauna...
You prefer a gas cooktop...
You like the master bedroom away from the secondary bedrooms...

And finally...

You might be the perfect buyer for this home if you don't like cookie cutter neighborhoods where every house is the same size, shape and color!

With so much to offer, why have you not scheduled your showing?!?!

Can I Get Land Close to Town? And Bring My Horse?

As a real estate professional, this is a question I get asked quite frequently...can I find a house with land that is close by or do I have to go to the outskirts of the county? Allow me to introduce my new listing...

Nestled among the beautiful North Carolina State University farm land is this wonderful ranch home sitting on 3.64 of the most peaceful land in all of Wake County. You must see this listing to understand and appreciate all that it has to offer.

With just one turn off the Tryon Road thoroughfare, you enter a completely different world that is Mid Pines Drive. A wonderful country road that winds past NC State's lush farmland, wonderful open spaces and neighbors that appreciate their slice of country that sits so convenient to the city.

Tired of boarding your horse in someone else's barn? On their property? Bring your horse with you to your new home and enjoy having them so close by. With the amazing windows off the back of this house, you can relax and watch your horse explore the beauty of their new surroundings. Don't worry about transporting them for a ride, you can saddle up at the house and ride around the area. There is even a wired out building/workshop already on the property that could be converted to a barn and/or stable.

When asked about the potential of this area being redeveloped in the name of progress, the seller shared the following "the immediate surroundings should stay very country for a long time. Before I moved into Mid Pines we looked at 30-40 other properties that had a country look. Almost all of them now are overgrown. Mid Pines hasn't changed at all in the last 20 years."

With the low turnover on the street, it looks like Mid Pines Drive in Raleigh might just be one of Raleigh's best kept secrets!
