About this home

For the first time in generations, this 48.20-acre tract is being offered for sale. Enrolled in the Voluntary Agricultural District program, this exceptional corner tract offers approximately 2,956 feet of combined road frontage along Highway 10 and Finger Bridge Road, presenting a rare opportunity to own a substantial piece of Catawba County countryside. The predominantly cleared landscape provides outstanding flexibility for agricultural, equestrian, residential, recreational, or investment use. Remnants of the property's farming heritage remain throughout the tract, offering a glimpse into its past while leaving endless possibilities for its future. Public water is available, adding convenience for future plans. Conveniently located just minutes from Newton, Maiden, and Hickory, and approximately one hour from Charlotte, opportunities to acquire nearly 50 acres with this combination of size, location, road frontage, and agricultural heritage are increasingly rare.
