About this home

Located less than five miles northeast of Louisburg and within about an hour of Raleigh, this versatile Franklin County tract offers a blend of agricultural ground, recreational features, and long-term land investment potential. The property combines open fields, timber, water, and road access to create a landscape suited for a variety of land uses. One of the most striking features of the property is the approximately 3+/- acre pond that sits within the tract. The pond provides an attractive focal point and may offer opportunities for fishing, wildlife viewing, and general outdoor enjoyment. Surrounding areas include mature pine timber, hardwood stands, and several natural rock outcroppings that add visual character and variation to the terrain. ATV trails wind through portions of the property, allowing convenient access to different areas of the land and making it easy to explore the timber, pond, and open fields. These trails also enhance the property's recreational use for activities such as riding, hiking, or wildlife observation. Agricultural capability is another major component of this tract. Just under 50+/- acres of gently rolling ground is currently in hay production, providing immediate agricultural use and the potential for continued farm income. The open land could also support livestock grazing or other agricultural operations, depending on a buyer's goals. Road frontage is a significant advantage for this property. With over 1,800+/- feet of frontage along a public road, the tract offers excellent accessibility and flexibility for land planning. The combination of road access, rolling terrain, and soil types shown on mapping resources from the United States Geological Survey may indicate areas that could support homesites or additional land uses. Buyers should conduct their own due diligence to verify soils, permits, and development possibilities. For buyers interested in establishing a farm, this property offers room for livestock, pasture management, and agricultural expansion. The land could also accommodate equestrian use, small-scale farming, or a private estate with a balance of open fields and wooded acreage. The property's mix of timber, water, and open ground also creates strong recreational appeal. Wildlife activity is common in this part of Franklin County, and the combination of habitat types provides conditions that may support deer, turkey, and other game species typical of the region. Convenient access to Louisburg allows for proximity to restaurants, stores, and other town services while still enjoying the privacy and space of rural land ownership. Raleigh is also within commuting distance, making the property accessible to those seeking land outside the city while remaining connected to the Triangle region. This property presents an opportunity to own a tract that combines agricultural production, recreational use, and long-term land ownership potential. Showings are by appointment only. Do not access the property without a licensed North Carolina real estate agent present.
