A ready to build lot with a short walk to the water. This private lot is ready to put your new home in a quiet community with no HOA fees. The Site Evaluation, Septic Approval, Septic Estimate, Site Plan and Boundary Survey are all complete. Make sure you see this property before it's gone.
PRICE REDUCED!! Unimproved wooded lot, priced to sell. Great place to build a home close to the water but in Zone X, outside the 100- and 500-year floodplains. Site evaluation in 1998 approved property for full-depth gravity septic but those records are no longer available. Public record lists address as E. Side Black Top Rd. Directions: Iron Branch Rd to Possum Point Rd, turn right at first gravel road between mailboxes for 27828 & 27832 Possum Point Rd. This gravel road has no street sign or name. Wooded lot is on the right before telephone pole labeled with #25873.
