Discover the potential of this beautiful 23-acre property at 1460 Husbands Creek Rd in Lenoir, NC. Offering privacy, natural beauty, and multiple building opportunities, this tract features two existing homesites already in place. One homesite sits at a higher elevation with the potential for long-range mountain views and includes approximately one acre already cleared and ready for your vision. Whether you're looking to build a private mountain retreat, family estate, or investment property, this land offers the flexibility and space to make it happen. Enjoy the peaceful setting, abundant wildlife, and the convenience of being just a short drive from downtown Lenoir while still feeling tucked away in the countryside. A dirt road already exists to reach the upper portion of the property. I would suggest only attempting this ascend with a 4x4 vehicle at your own risk(I was able to make the climb in 2-Wheel drive with an older truck). There are survey stakes with pink ribbon marking the path up to the cleared acre on the mountain and the walkable-path up to the highest peak on the property. There is currently a home at the entrance to the property that will most likely need to be torn down or at least be professionally treated for mold. The second building up on the cleared portion of the property is also not safe for access but may be easier to recover than the house! Both Buildings have septic systems installed and wells providing water but the owners are unsure of the condition of the systems.
