Description

Opportunities like this are getting harder to find. Tucked away on a private lot in Gates County, this 6.58-acre heavily wooded property offers the space, seclusion, and flexibility to create something truly special. Mature hardwoods and pines provide a beautiful natural setting, while a 50-foot-wide easement offers direct access to the road. Whether you have been dreaming of building a private country home surrounded by woods, creating a multigenerational family retreat, establishing a recreational getaway, holding land for its timber potential, or simply securing acreage for hunting and outdoor enjoyment, this property opens the door to an incredible range of possibilities. R-1 zoning adds even more appeal for buyers looking for room to spread out and enjoy a more rural lifestyle. Uses, improvements, subdivision, and building possibilities are subject to applicable county requirements and buyer verification. And while it feels wonderfully removed from the hustle, you are not disconnected. US-158 provides convenient access throughout northeastern North Carolina and toward southeastern Virginia. The Gatesville area sits roughly 30 miles from Suffolk, Elizabeth City, and historic Edenton, giving you access to shopping, dining, employment centers, and everyday conveniences while still coming home to peace and privacy.Outdoor recreation is practically part of the lifestyle here. Gates County is known for its natural beauty, with the Chowan River, Great Dismal Swamp, and Merchants Millpond State Park all part of the surrounding landscape. Merchants Millpond offers paddling, fishing, hiking, biking, birdwatching, and picnicking among spectacular old-growth cypress and wetlands. Keep it wooded. Clear the perfect homesite. Create trails. Build your retreat. Hold it for the future. With 6.58 acres, mature trees, road access, and a location that offers both privacy and connectivity, this is the kind of property you buy because you know land like this does not become more plentiful. Bring your vision and make it yours. ??????
