Located in the Providence area of north-central Caswell County, NC, you'll find this historic +/- 10.03-acre property that is a rare opportunity for anyone who's looking to build a home in a country setting!

Identified as Lot-7 (of nine lots) of the Wilson's Ridge Subdivision, it contains approximately +/-10.03-acres of gently sloping, wooded land and gives you maximum flexibility as to where to place a home. This property has approximately 75ft of frontage along Wilson Road, which is state maintained, and allows for easy access onto the property and to available utilities. A small creek runs along the northern border, from west to east, and seems to flows during the cooler months. The lot comes with a new survey and a newly issued septic permit (see property documents tab).

What makes this property historic is: that its the old homestead for the Wilson family for whom the road and subdivision is named after. The Wilson's settled this farm in the early 1800's and the property was owned by their heirs until just a year or so ago. When the current owner was preparing the lots of Wilson Ridge for sale, he began demolishing the old house. It was soon discovered that that the original cabin was hidden under planks and tar paper, so the decision was made not to demolish the structure. The remaining structure could be repaired and added onto and make a great project for the right buyer. The logs are uniquely hewn and put together using only tongue and grove and pins! The chimney is intact as well. There is also a small family plot located in the very southeast corner of the lot along the powerline easement and you can see its location on the interactive map found on this listing.
