About this home
This 24.7± acre tract in southern Person County offers a blend of privacy, recreational use, and convenient access to nearby amenities. Located just minutes from Roxboro and approximately 24 miles from Durham, the property provides a rural setting with easy access to employment, shopping, dining, and services.
The land features gently rolling topography and is predominantly wooded, offering both natural beauty and long-term timber value. The tract was professionally planted in 1995 and has not been harvested, resulting in a stand of mature timber that may provide future income opportunities. The wooded acreage also contributes to the overall privacy and natural character of the land.
For those interested in outdoor recreation, the property offers habitat that may support wildlife commonly found in this region of North Carolina. The wooded landscape and surrounding rural area provide opportunities for hunting, wildlife observation, and general outdoor enjoyment. The size and layout of the tract allow flexibility for a range of uses, including recreational ownership, timber investment, or a potential homesite.
In addition to its recreational appeal, the property offers convenient access to nearby communities. Roxboro, the county seat of Person County, provides grocery stores, restaurants, retail services, and everyday amenities. The property is also within driving distance of Durham, a larger regional employment and cultural center offering expanded dining, medical services, entertainment, and transportation options. Travel access is further supported by the nearby Person County Airport, which provides general aviation services for the region.
A recent soil evaluation indicated that a conventional septic system would not be supported. However, a licensed septic engineer has completed a preliminary site review and indicated that an engineered (alternative) septic system is likely feasible. The seller has engaged the engineer to complete a formal evaluation and provide a system design, including recommended location and system type. This information will be made available to prospective buyers upon completion. The property is priced to reflect the requirement for an engineered septic system, offering an opportunity for buyers to secure acreage at a value adjusted for site conditions.
Seller financing is available for qualified buyers with 20% down, providing additional flexibility for those seeking to secure this property without traditional bank financing.
Properties of this size and location in southern Person County are increasingly limited, particularly those offering both privacy and proximity to Roxboro and the greater Durham area. This tract presents an opportunity for buyers seeking recreational land with future homesite potential supported by engineered septic design....
