I am thinking of getting a new personal house and really like the styling of the modern homes. Around Raleigh though I have not seen many houses like this. So I am looking for some land to put it on. Of course this land would have to be unrestricted, non HOA, etc… and preferably a bit secluded, if possible, with all the glass. Just to give an idea on land here, there is a piece downtown, in the “ruff” section of town going for $10,000. It is only a .06 acres though. There is half an acre near north hills going for $285,000. Then you get outside the city and you can get 2-3 acres for around $65-70,000. Lots of people buy houses downtown and tear them down. So I am not sure what I am going to do.
Check out the following pictures to see where I am coming from with respect to modern homes. I would like something that is a reflection of me and also something that will work around me. The pics below were taken from here. Does anyone here have experience with this type of home?
