This 129-acre property in Stantonsburg, North Carolina, offers a rare combination of open farmland, forested acreage, and a comfortable modern home. The 1,861-square-foot house, built in 2009, features two bedrooms and three bathrooms and is tucked at the end of a private gravel driveway that winds through mature trees. With multiple parcels and 0.4 miles of road frontage, the property provides both privacy and convenient access.
Approximately 40 acres of open fields offer opportunities for gardening, hobby farming, or livestock, while nearly 88 acres of forest attract abundant wildlife, including deer, turkeys, ducks, and geese. Native plants and gardens encourage songbirds and hummingbirds, adding life and color to the property throughout the year. Goss Swamp meanders through part of the land, providing additional natural beauty and options for outdoor activities such as birdwatching, small fishing areas, or quiet walks along the water.
The farm is thoughtfully set up for immediate enjoyment. A potting shed and vegetable garden are already in place, and a fenced entrance adds security and convenience for both people and animals. The mixed-age timber on the property is estimated to be valued between $75,000 and $90,000, offering additional potential for sustainable forestry or future income.
The property’s layout, with open fields, forest, and water features, makes it ideal for a variety of uses. It can serve as a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or hobby farm. The natural setting encourages outdoor recreation including hiking, hunting, birdwatching, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
Despite its rural location, the property is conveniently accessible. It’s only 13.5 miles from Wilson, North Carolina, for shopping, schools, restaurants, and healthcare, and about an hour from Raleigh, providing access to a major city while maintaining a serene country lifestyle.
