Property Description

Nearly 5 acres of Sound Front property on a majestic point where the Albemarle Sound meets the mouth of the Scuppernong River! Only 5 miles from the heart of Columbia, and LESS THAN 45 MILES FROM THE OBX! This property comprises of two large sound-front parcels (lot 25, 1.73 acres & lot 26, 3.2 acres) which are side-by-side. If one were to purchase both tracts, they would combine to total almost 5 acres w/ a generous amount of high ground for both a build site(-s), a nice yard, & septic system/drainfield; wooded privacy on all sides w/ a scenic natural habitat between the back yard and the water's edge, laden with majestic pine trees and aromatic cypress knees, which add a measure of privacy & a protective buffer from potential erosion... a raised boardwalk, transitioning to a pier & dock as it extends beyond the shoreline, would complete a veritable natural nirvana, bordered by over 250 feet of waterfront shoreline on the Albemarle Sound! Lot 25 was approved for a 3BR septic system (expired 2021); the inspector was receptive to the possibility of increasing the permit to 4BRs (though it remains a case-by-case situation until it is requested & can be formally reassessed), however the additional 3-plus acres on Lot 26 should further accommodate re-permitting and/or increasing the permit to accommodate additional bedrooms. Each of the two sound-front lots has over 125 feet of sound frontage for a combined total of +/- 250 feet of water frontage; there are some low points and some mature trees between the ideal building area(-s) and the shoreline, so a boardwalk, or an approved walkway from some point on the interior of the lot to the waters edge (maybe 40 feet or so?) would be ideal - which is why the owner priced this waterfront acreage well below the recent sales prices & active asking prices of other smaller nearby waterfront properties - to help absorb some of the potential cost for permitting & building a boardwalk/walkway to the water's edge. These two properties are also listed individually @ $75k each, however the Owner would prefer selling them together, hence the discounted price for the package deal. There are 10 more lots - 8 in Phase 2 and 2 in Phase 1 - for sale, which can be combined in any way for a multi-lot deal. Paved Cul-De-Sac road, sound front common area with pier - all in a quiet community with no more than 18 total homes, once development is complete.
