West Raleigh Custom-Built Beauty with No City Taxes

Located right in the middle of both Raleigh and Cary, this custom-built 4 bedroom house is just filled to the brim with features you’re going to love.

In addition to great accessibility to RTP, PNC Arena, NC State University, and Downtown Raleigh (all within mere minutes), you’ll also be getting a much smaller bill at tax time thanks to this county address that requires no city taxes. With this long list of amenities, 1400 Medfield isn’t going to sit on the market long after it debuts on September 1, 2016.

Inside you’ll find a gourmet kitchen with all the accouterments, as well as formal dining and living rooms that offer valuable flex space. The family room is both cozy and beautiful with its fireplace and coffered ceiling! This home’s master suite shines over others you might find on the market with two killer closets and a completely redone master bath with neutral tile. Guest bedrooms are generously sized and there’s even a bonus room!

Outside you’ll want to grill out, entertain, and enjoy the North Carolina weather – taking in the beautiful setting and large, level lot. There’s also a community pool that you can join separately, perfect for all the summer fun without the work of maintaining your own.
