PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

​

Small Farming Opportunity in Wilkes County, NC!

​

Not often do you find a property that has end of road privacy, seclusion, an abundance of road front access, and a bold stream, that has approximately 15% of its acreage in open meadows! In addition, this property offers a small farming opportunity in Wilkes County, NC! It could be ideal for horses, cattle or a mini-farm.

​

This property has over a thousand feet of state maintained road frontage and electricity running right through the middle of it. It slopes up from a centrally located stream running along an open meadow up to a ridge to the north east and also up to a ridge to the south west. Elevations range from 1981’ along the stream up to 2325’ on the ridge to the north.

 

Timber was harvested last in 2002 and the property has been under a forest management program for the last 19 years. A healthy forest of White Pine and hardwoods is developing well for a possible future source of income. As a result of the 2002 timber harvest, an internal trail system is in place that could be utilized for recreational activities such as hiking, horseback riding, ATV riding or hunting access.

​

With the property bordering ridges on both the northern and southern border it lends itself to the possibility of some fantastic views. With a little clearing I can easily see multiple house or cabin sites available with an existing road system for access.

​

A current hunting lease is in place on the property that will expire upon transfer of deed to the new owner. The wildlife has been managed for over 10 years for trophy whitetails with the current lessee only taking about one trophy buck per year so there is an abundance of wildlife present including deer, turkey and an occasional black bear and ruffed grouse.

​

The meadow has been managed for hay but was not cut last year so it is in need of mowing. A good stand of fescue is in place so it will take little effort to implement a profitable pasture system. With the rich bottomland soils present row crops or a vegetable garden would also be a great option for the open meadow area.

​

If you are looking for the ideal mountain get away then don’t hesitate - properties like this don’t come around every day. With the possibility of a division and future income potential the price of $141,000 makes this a sound investment for any land savvy investor or someone just looking for a special mountain get-away.
