Property Description

Discover your own slice of rural paradise with this rare opportunity to own approximately 11 acres of vacant land, perfectly suited for a variety of dreams and lifestyles. Whether you envision building a private country homesite, establishing a hunting camp, or simply investing in a beautiful stretch of North Carolina wilderness, this property offers exceptional potential and value. With about 230 feet of road frontage, access is easy and convenient. County water is available at the road, and a fire hydrant at the front of the property provides peace of mind and enhanced protection for any future home. Nearly the entire tract lies within the FEMA 100-year flood plain, so any residence will require construction above the base flood elevation—an important consideration for those planning a new build. No perk test has been performed; however, the on-site Stallings Loamy Fine Sand soils are permeable and percolate well, indicating they are likely suitable for a septic system (this can be confirmed by a perk test). The rear five acres of the property are designated wetlands, with standing water providing a haven for ducks, whitetail deer, and countless other species. Imagine mornings spent in a duck blind as wood ducks and mallards soar overhead, or evenings scouting for deer. The land's southern border touches approximately 1,200 contiguous acres of NC State Lands—part of the Sandy Run Swamp State Natural Area—which is closed to the public and strictly off-limits for hunting (the photos show several areas of standing water on these state lands). This ensures that abundant, untouched wildlife will have access to your property. Beyond your boundaries, you're only a short drive from major recreational destinations. Holly Shelter Game Land, the NC Wildlife boat launch on the Northeast Cape Fear River, the sandy shores of Surf City, and the vibrant city of Wilmington are all within reach. Don't miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind rural retreat and wildlife haven!
