About this property
Whether you're searching for a premier recreational retreat, a hunting property, investment land, a future homesite, or a property with the potential to become a unique glamping destination, this tract offers outstanding possibilities. Conveniently located less than 30 minutes from Pinehurst, an hour from the Greensboro Triad, under 75 miles from Charlotte, and approximately 45 miles from the growing Liberty and Asheboro area, it combines privacy, natural beauty, and accessibility. Adding to its appeal, the property is located just 10 minutes from Uwharrie National Forest, offering easy access to thousands of acres of public land for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, camping, off-road trails, hunting, and fishing. It is also only 10 minutes from StarWorks, a nationally recognized destination for art, craft, and culture featuring galleries, artist studios, live events, and one of the country's premier ceramic centers. To truly appreciate this property's remarkable topography and water features, you have to experience it in person. A rare, flat upper plateau provides expansive panoramic views overlooking the surrounding landscape, while the property also enjoys direct frontage on both the East Fork of Little River and White Oak Creek. The combination of elevated views, wooded terrain, and waterfront access creates an exceptional setting for a private retreat or a thoughtfully designed glamping experience, subject to applicable zoning, permitting, and site approvals. Originally cleared and stumped for cattle pasture, the land was never stocked with livestock. Outstanding wildlife habitat for deer, turkey, and other native species. With more than 3,500 feet of frontage along the East Fork of Little River and additional frontage on White Oak Creek, you'll enjoy scenic views and opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and exploring the waterways. Approximately 2,200 feet of road frontage along Mabe Road provides excellent access while offering multiple possibilities for homesites or future development. Power and county water are available along the Mabe Road frontage. No perc testing or soil evaluations have been completed. The property is zoned RES2 and RES3. A small cemetery is located on the property, as shown on the map included with the listing. Mineral rights were retained by Boise Cascade (Deed Book 247, Page 14).

Buyer checklist
Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.
- Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
- Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
- Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
- Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
- RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
- Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
- UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
- What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
