    About this House

    NEW IMPROVED PRICE! Nestled in the quiet countryside just outside Smithfield, this beautiful 12.4+ acre tract offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and highly usable land. Bordered on three sides by flowing creek water and protected by a 50-foot riparian buffer, the property enjoys a peaceful, retreat-like setting with a natural curtain of privacy year-round. Approximately 4.5 acres are cleared and currently in agricultural use, featuring light sandy soils with a proven history of producing peanuts, hay, and other field crops. The remaining acreage is rich with mixed hardwoods, muscadine vines, and abundant wildlife. Multiple outstanding homesites are available throughout the property, whether you envision a custom home overlooking the open fields or a secluded retreat tucked deep within the mature hardwood forest beneath towering old-growth sycamores. Despite its quiet, secluded feel, the property offers convenient access to Princeton, Pine Level, and Smithfield via a lightly traveled road that has been recently improved. With 673 feet of road frontage, no HOA, and no restrictive covenants beyond a prohibition on manufactured homes, this property offers exceptional freedom for your dream home, hobby farm, horses, gardens, or recreational escape. A rare opportunity to own scenic creekfront acreage with productive farmland, mature timber, and several exceptional building sites in peaceful Johnston County.

      "I live in this area, and I haven't had any problems as far as crime or vandalism go, but there is a lot of foot traffic coming in and out of the neighborhood, and many of the travelers are inebriated and talkative! Also, the probation administration is within 100 yards, so I do worry about the kind of people passing through. On the positive side, there is a lovely local grocery store, Edwards IGA, very close by, as well as a Pizza Hut and a Domino's within easy walking distance (less than 5 min). The rent in this area is below what is normal for this city, but beware of the utility bill...ours was over $350 a month in the winter, which was over half of what we pay in rent, and we are VERY careful about not wasting electricity or water!"
