About this home

Gorgeous homesite with a SOIL ASSESSMENT on file, 10 ACRES, and a prime location just off NC-86, only 6 minutes to downtown Hillsborough. Drive down a quiet private gravel drive shared by just six properties and discover a beautiful parcel of wooded land ready for your vision. A key step in the building process is already complete, with a soil assessment showing suitable sites for a CONVENTIONAL SEPTIC system. That means valuable groundwork has already been done, helping future owners move more efficiently from land purchase to working with a builder. The landscape offers flexibility for homesite placement, giving you the opportunity to design a home that takes advantage of privacy, natural light, and the surrounding woods. Zoned AR with NO HOA, the property also allows for an ADU up to 1,500 square feet, creating options for guests, extended family, a private studio, or additional living space. They're not making more land, so take this opportunity to build something custom in a beautiful natural setting.
