Recreational Land for Sale in Beaufort, North Carolina
320 Martin Creek Dr Beaufort, NC 28516
Down a winding dirt road sits a beautiful 10 acre waterfront property ready for a new owner! 200 feet of waterfront that opens up into some of the best fishing, shrimping, boating, and waterfowl hunting in the area, no HOA, the ability to have chickens, horses, bees, pygmy goats, etc. If privacy and rural living appeals to you, or if gardening, sailing, hunting, and wildlife viewing, all on your own property, appeals to you, keep reading!
Located approx. 30 minutes north of America's Coolest Small Town, Beaufort, NC, sits the community of South River. This lot sits at the mouth of Hardy Creek, which opens up into the South River, and offers a short boat ride to the Neuse, the ICW, Oriental, etc, and a little longer boat ride to the Pamlico Sound, or Beaufort Inlet, or Atlantic Ocean.
This is rural living at it's best; No HOA so restrictions on the land regarding home style or out buildings; stick build, modular, manufactured, barndominium, tiny home, camper, RV all allowed. If you are to build you would likely want to bring in fill or build up on pilings to get above the flood zone like most of the homes in the area. This lot is ready to build; 3 bedroom septic and power already in place.
Lot has been partially cleared to allow access to the waterfront out out to the pond. Beyond the pond is area designated as wetlands. Plenty of game trails and hunting/shooting opportunities. Decoys already in pond convey. This area had been farming land many years ago and would make a great gardening spot. There are approx 2 acres on the water side of the pond where most people would build their home, dock etc
You will see boating of all types here; power, sail, shrimping, fishing. South River boat ramp just across the creek.
Low county taxes, currently $417.64/yr, no city taxes.
If beautiful, rural, waterfront living is for you, this may be your new place!
