The train trestle view over New Hope Creek sets the scene for this amazing property! The existing home on this 6.6 acre lot has been beautifully renovated and has water on 2 sides. The expansive deck off of the primary bedroom was made from red oak harvested from the land. Conveniently located between I40 and I85 you can get to UNC or Duke very quickly! The adjacent lot has a 5 bedroom septic permit should you choose to build your dream home on this rare piece of land. From the deer to the cute fox family, you're never short of friends here. The low maintenance wooded trail that meanders by the creek is loaded with mature hardwoods. It's all conceptual until you see it for yourself. Come and see this amazing opportunity!
