Description

17 Acres in Western Rowan County, NC

If you have been looking for usable acreage in a rural setting with much of the groundwork already completed, this 17-acre tract in western Rowan County is worth a look. The property offers excellent topography, multiple open fields, mature hardwoods, a year-round stream, two established driveways, building pads, electrical infrastructure, and a perk site already in place.

The northern driveway leads into an approximately 7-acre field with a large building pad that would be ideal for a shop, barn, equipment building or other improvements. The southern driveway opens into a smaller field with a prepared homesite and perk site, creating a natural separation between the residential area and the larger field.

A 200-amp temporary electrical service is already in place, and the transformer pad has been installed, giving the next owner a significant head start on future construction.

Two additional small fields toward the rear of the property offer additional flexibility. These areas could be used for food plots, pasture, gardens, an orchard, recreation, or simply maintained as open space. A year-round stream runs through the center of the tract, with large mature hardwoods growing along the creek and throughout the wooded acreage behind the proposed homesite.

The mixture of fields, woods, water, and edge habitat also makes the property attractive for wildlife and recreational use. Whether your plans include hunting, gardening, livestock, a hobby farm, or simply enjoying your own private piece of the outdoors, this property offers plenty of options!

Why Western Rowan County?

Western Rowan County is an appealing area for buyers who want a rural lifestyle without being isolated from everyday conveniences. Rowan County sits between the Charlotte and Triad regions and offers convenient access to Salisbury, Statesville, Mooresville, Winston-Salem, and the greater Charlotte area.

The area is known for its rural communities, farms, larger acreage tracts, and outdoor recreation. High Rock Lake, area parks, hiking trails, fishing, boating, and other outdoor opportunities are all within the region, while Salisbury provides shopping, dining, healthcare, and additional services.

With 17 acres, this tract provides enough room for privacy, recreation, and multiple uses without the maintenance demands of a much larger farm.

Build a home, add a shop, establish pasture, plant an orchard or garden, create food plots, or simply enjoy the property as it is. With the driveways, building pads, perk site, electrical improvements, open acreage, woods, and stream already in place, much of the difficult preliminary work has already been completed.

This is a versatile tract with plenty of potential and an excellent head start for the next owner.
