Description
If you’ve been looking for a manageable farm with a great homesite and room to grow, this 10.029 acre tract on Martin Road checks a lot of boxes. The property is made up mostly of open, tillable ground with gentle rolls in the terrain, giving you plenty of options for crops, pasture, or simply keeping it in clean, low‑maintenance fields.
A key feature of this farm is roughly 1.5 acres of mature pines and hardwoods positioned at the highest elevation on the property. This elevated, wooded knoll offers an ideal setting for a homesite. It provides a natural buffer from the road, a sense of privacy, and a nice view back across the open fields. With the right homesite design, you can take advantage of both the wooded setting and the surrounding farm scenery.
The open ground has been actively farmed and is well‑suited for continued agricultural use. The layout of the fields makes it easy to access with equipment, while the shape of the tract still gives you room to carve out a yard, garden, or small hobby farm setup without sacrificing productive acreage. The mix of open land and timber edge also creates some light wildlife activity, giving you the feel of a country retreat without the upkeep of a large, heavily wooded tract.
Access is excellent, with approximately 360 feet of frontage along Martin Road. This gives you multiple options for a driveway entrance and provides convenient in‑and‑out access for daily commuting, farm equipment, or construction traffic if you decide to build. At the same time, the depth of the tract and the elevated homesite area allow you to set a home back off the road for added privacy and a quieter setting.
A current survey will be on file, giving buyers clear boundary lines and confidence in the exact acreage. In addition, the property has a soil report showing multiple suitable areas for both well and septic. That due diligence up front helps streamline the building process and gives you flexibility in how you lay out your homesite, outbuildings, and any future improvements.
The surrounding area is a nice blend of working farms, scattered homes on acreage, and small rural subdivisions. You get the benefits of a peaceful countryside setting while still being within a reasonable drive of Zebulon, Wendell, and the greater Raleigh area for work, shopping, and dining. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence site, a small farm, or a long‑term land investment, this tract offers a strong combination of usability, access, and setting.
With its mix of open tillable ground, elevated timbered homesite, and convenient road frontage, this Martin Road farm is a versatile property that can fit a variety of plans. It’s the kind of place where you can build a home, keep a few animals, plant a garden, and still have room to enjoy the land.
Important Note: Acreage is based on tax records and should be verified by a survey. Buyers should conduct their own due diligence regarding soil conditions, building suitability, and any development restrictions.
