## Description

### Agent Description
Bring your own builder to this homesite in Caraleigh Commons. located in the heart of the rapidly growing Downtown South District, just minutes from Downtown Raleigh, the NC Farmers Market, and Dix Park. The community features rooftop decks with skyline views, adjacency to protected woodlands, and direct access to the greenway trail system. This site is suitable for homes up to 3000 sqft. Buyers may bring their own custom design or select from a portfolio of over 50 custom designed home plans. The example plans and photos shown are of the Alder plan, a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offering approximately 2,269 square feet and a rooftop deck. For a complete list of available plans and builder referrals please contact the listing broker. This lot comes with key infrastructure already in place, including water and sewer taps, underground electric and cable, curb and gutter, driveway apron, and completed grading. It has been elevated with engineered structural fill. FEMA review is underway to confirm the lot is above the mapped floodplain, with confirmation anticipated in February. Buyer may make offers contingent upon FEMA approval if desired. This represents one of the last remaining opportunities to build a single-family home in Downtown South, an area rapidly emerging as the exclusive core of Raleigh's next generation of downtown living.
