About this home

Rare 70.77-acre offering in the Hillsborough area of northern Orange County, presenting an exceptional opportunity for a private estate, equestrian property, working farm, multi-family generational estate, or thoughtfully envisioned agritourism retreat. With rolling topography, open meadows, natural privacy, and scenic creek adjacency, this property offers the kind of scale, beauty, and flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find within reach of the Triangle. The land provides an inspiring canvas for country living at many levels, whether imagined as a legacy estate with trails and gardens, a horse property with pasture and barn potential, a productive farm or homestead, or a destination property with long-term vision. Preliminary soil testing indicates the property supports septic throughout the tract, adding meaningful utility and optionality for future planning. Located on Highland Farm Road, the property combines a peaceful rural setting with convenient access to Hillsborough, Chapel Hill, Durham, and the greater Triangle region. Nearby natural areas, protected land, and the surrounding countryside add to the sense of space and permanence that make this property so special. Currently in PUV tax status. Large tracts with this combination of acreage, setting, and potential rarely come to market in Orange County. Shown by appointment only. Please do not enter property without authorization.
