Eaton Ferry Road Tract

Located in the highly desirable Lake Gaston region of Warren County, this exceptional ±111.23 acre timberland and recreational tract offers a rare opportunity to own a large contiguous acreage property in one of northeastern North Carolina’s most sought-after rural markets. Conveniently situated off Eaton Ferry Road near the town of Littleton, the property combines investment potential, outdoor recreation, and future homesite possibilities within close proximity to the lake and surrounding amenities.

The property is predominantly comprised of professionally established loblolly pine plantation that was planted in 2025, creating an outstanding long-term timber investment opportunity with future management and income potential. A well-maintained internal road system provides excellent access throughout the tract and allows easy navigation to many areas of the property as highlighted on the property maps. Several small streams traverse portions of the tract, adding to the natural beauty and creating excellent wildlife habitat for deer, turkey, and other native game species. The combination of young planted pine, stream buffers, and internal roads creates an ideal setting for hunting, trail riding, hiking, and year-round outdoor recreation.

An additional unique feature of the property is a small historic cemetery located on the tract with grave sites believed to date back to the late 1800s and early 1900s. This quiet area offers a glimpse into the rich history and rural heritage of Warren County and reflects the deep agricultural and timberland roots that have shaped this region for generations.

The property also offers excellent infrastructure and accessibility with county water, power, and telephone utilities available along Eaton Ferry Road. With proper soil evaluation and permitting, the tract may offer potential for a private homesite or cabin retreat pending perc testing. The location provides both privacy and convenience, situated only approximately 3.5 miles from Lake Gaston, approximately 30 minutes from Roanoke Rapids, approximately one hour from Rocky Mount, and roughly 1.5 hours from the Raleigh-Durham metropolitan area.

Lake Gaston has become one of the premier recreational destinations in the Southeast, encompassing approximately 20,000 acres of water and over 350 miles of shoreline across North Carolina and Virginia. Known for excellent boating, fishing, and waterfront recreation, the lake continues to drive strong demand for surrounding land and recreational properties. Warren County itself is rich in history, natural beauty, and outdoor recreation, offering a peaceful rural setting while remaining accessible to larger employment and commercial centers throughout eastern and central North Carolina.
