**16 ACRES. NO HOA. A BEAUTIFUL HOME. AND A WHOLE LOT OF POSSIBILITIES.** If you've been watching 249 Money Tree Lane, you may have noticed the price has changed. What you may not have noticed is just how much opportunity is sitting behind this beautiful home. Now offered at **$1,599,000**, this is a rare chance to own approximately 16 acres in Knightdale with **no HOA and no restrictions imposed by an HOA**—whether you're looking for a private estate, a place to enjoy for years to come, or exploring the property's potential for future development. And the house? It's pretty special, too. Huge windows fill nearly every room of this beautiful modern farmhouse with natural light, while soaring cathedral ceilings and an open floor plan create an airy, welcoming feel. The gorgeous kitchen features quartz countertops and opens beautifully to the main living spaces, where one of two fireplaces adds warmth and character. The main-level Primary Suite is exactly what you'd hope for, with a beautiful spa-like bathroom and an oversized walk-in closet. There's plenty of room for everyone else, too, with generously sized secondary bedrooms and flexible living spaces. Now, let's talk about the basement stairs—the feature that might come up in conversation. They're metal and they're less than ideal for carrying a basket of laundry down them as you simultaneously try to hang on for dear life. Yes, they're definitely memorable. And yes, I figured I'd address them rather than let you be surprised at the showing! The basement itself offers approximately 7-foot ceilings and can also be accessed directly from the exterior. If you'd prefer a more traditional staircase, that's something a future owner could explore and potentially redesign to better suit the space or maybe look into moving the laundry room to the main floor and use the basement for additional storage. Here's the big picture: **16 acres, no HOA, a beautiful home, abundant natural light, incredible privacy, and potential that extends well beyond the house itself.** Properties offering this combination of acreage, location and flexibility are increasingly hard to find. Come take a look at 249 Money Tree Lane. The house is gorgeous. The land is where the story gets really interesting.
