Description

With rolling topography, timber, 910 feet of road frontage, access to municipal water & fiber optic cable, and excellent access to Sanford, Raleigh, Fayetteville/Fort Bragg, and surrounding communities, its a its a prime development opportunity in the Sandhills of NC. Situated less than 6 miles from Sanford and US 421 lies the 36-acre Copeland Road Tract. This land parcel is found in the rolling hills of Lee County just south of the Cape Fear River, but in close proximity to major travel routes that can quickly access Sanford, The Triangle, and Fayetteville/Fort Bragg. This tract is nestled right in the middle of Lee County where picturesque meadows and towering trees cover the entire region. This part of the county is growing fast and is attractive to a wide range of users from home builders and even horse enthusiasts. In fact, this tract is less than a mile from Encore Sporthorse, a high end horse breeding facility that attracts customers all over the lower 48. With the exception of a small creek bisecting the tract on the backside, the tract is mostly highland with a mixture of 25-year-old loblolly pine and the balance is yellow poplar, oak, and other hardwood species. The timber has not been thinned any since it naturally regenerated, but its well on its way to maturity due to the very high site index on this site. The rolling hills, vigorously growing timber, and the babbling brook could be a perfect setting for your horse ranch. Or this tract could be the perfect opportunity for a new development right in the heart of God's country and less than an hour from Raleigh, Southern Pines, Raleigh/Durham, and Fayetteville/Fort Bragg. The tract is configured to be easily split into small home lots or large estate-sized land packages. Tract has access to county water and fiber optic cable as well as electricity. In addition to being a prime development tract, the Copeland Road Tract is full of deer, turkey, and lots of small game.
