    About this House

    This exceptional 281-acre timberland property offers a fantastic investment opportunity in a thriving timber market area in North Carolina. Located near the charming town of Ellerbe in Richmond County, this tract presents a unique blend of diverse timber resources and potential for future returns, making it an ideal choice for discerning investors and forestry professionals alike. The property encompasses 281 acres and features a range of distinct timber resources. In 2023, a clearcut was completed over 131.32 acres. In 2024 this area was site prepared and then replanted in 2025 with genetically improved loblolly. In addition to this, the property includes 82 acres of an 12-year-old natural pine and hardwood stand. This stand offers a balanced mix of pine and hardwood species, providing both ecological diversity and commercial value. Moreover, the property is further diversified, as evidenced by the 59 acres designated as streamside management zones. These zones, left intact around the property's streams, ensure the protection of water quality and contribute to the overall health of the local ecosystem. The presence of a large power line dissecting the southwestern portion of the tract adds a unique characteristic to the land, potentially offering additional utility and access benefits. Access to this remarkable property is secured through a recorded deeded easement from Cartledge Creek Road. This easement ensures reliable and straightforward entry to the tract, facilitating ease of management and utilization. The strategic location of this property within a thriving timber market area further enhances its investment potential. The combination of recently harvested areas and established stands offers a balance of immediate and future revenue potential from timber sales, catering to both short-term and long-term investment strategies. An important consideration for prospective buyers is the mineral reservation on the property. International Paper reserves the mineral rights, which are clearly outlined in the documents section of the listing. This transparency ensures that all aspects of the property's resources are well-documented and understood.

      "This is the country so there’s wild animals like fox and wild hogs. The streets aren’t well lit at night and there’s a lot of stray dogs in the neighborhoods. But besides that it’s very quiet and very relaxing. The schools are very small with not many students but the nice, smart, and educated teachers that work there make up for that. Your child well definitely learn a lot and they’ll make sure the kids are loved and treated like their family!"
