Property Description
Wooded land for sale in Alexander County, NC: about 9 acres on a paved state road near Taylorsville, in the rolling foothills of the Brushy Mountains. Owner financing available. WHAT YOU CAN DO HERE: Build your home in the country, set a manufactured or modular home, add a guest house, start a mini farm, or simply own a quiet wooded piece of land that is easy to get to. WHAT YOU CAN PUT HERE: The land is zoned R-3 Residential with no HOA. Alexander County allows a site-built home, a modular home, or a single or doublewide manufactured home (with county standards like a masonry foundation and lap siding), plus one guest house or in-law unit. Living in an RV is not allowed in Alexander County, except while you build a home. ANIMALS WELCOME: Agriculture is allowed in R-3, so you can keep chickens, goats or a horse and grow a big garden. GREAT FOR: A first home on land, a manufactured home site, a family homestead, a mini farm or a quiet place near town. BUILDING: A licensed soil scientist found room for a septic system for at least a 3 bedroom home, possibly 4 with a drip system (preliminary; the county issues the final permit). The house would likely sit below the septic area and pump up to it. The land is wooded and sloped, rising from the road to a ridge top, so plan on some grading or a stepped foundation for your homesite. UTILITIES: You would add a well and a septic system, which is normal for country land in Alexander County. ACCESS: About 350 feet of frontage on paved Boone Gap Lane (state road SR 1309), with a new gravel driveway already cut in. No flood zone and no wetlands mapped.
