About this home

Rare opportunity to own 6.07 acres of prime West Forsyth property featuring a charming brick ranch, expansive open pasture, mature hardwoods, and endless potential for a private estate, multi-generational family compound, or future development. Offered as two parcels being sold together, this unique property presents an increasingly rare chance to secure a significant tract of usable land in one of Forsyth County’s most desirable locations. Situated on a peaceful and private setting, the property includes a 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick ranch on a full unfinished basement. The home offers a spacious and open living area, a true wood-burning fireplace, and endless possibilities to renovate, expand, or enjoy as-is while planning your future vision. The land itself is truly irreplaceable. A beautiful combination of wide-open, usable acreage and mature hardwoods creates a setting that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in Forsyth County. The expansive field provides ample space for recreation, gardening, horses, workshops, additional homes, or future improvements, while the wooded portions offer natural beauty, shade, and privacy. Located at the end of a private road, the property provides a sense of seclusion without sacrificing convenience to top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes. Utilities are already in place with natural gas on site, a recently upgraded well, public water available, and sewer available at the road. The home is currently serviced by septic. Whether you’re searching for the perfect place to build your dream estate, create a multi-generational family compound, preserve the existing home while constructing additional residences, develop custom homesites, or invest in one of the last remaining large acreage opportunities in West Forsyth, this property offers unmatched flexibility and potential. The configuration of the two parcels creates a unique opportunity for families seeking space to build and live together while maintaining privacy and independence. Properties like this rarely come available—6.07 acres of beautiful, usable land, an existing home, available utilities, and endless possibilities all in the heart of West Forsyth. The land itself is irreplaceable, and the opportunities are truly limitless.

Agricultural District

Land designated as agricultural constitutes a valuable natural resource whose protection is in the public interest. The agricultural district is established to maintain those areas with land characteristics such as soil moisture, temperature and content suitable for farming (fields, pastures, farmsteads, specialty farms), dairy, livestock, forestry operations and other agricultural activities; to protect land used or needed for food production and other agricultural uses from encroachment by untimely and unplanned residential, commercial or industrial development; and to permit the continuation of agricultural uses in areas where it remains viable.; The agricultural district is intended to provide for the continuation of agriculture as a viable land use and component of the local economy until market conditions and public services support conversion of agricultural land to rural or suburban residential land subdivisions and uses, or other uses. The agricultural district also helps to preserve the rural, open space character that exists in many portions of the county. Such areas are accessed only by rural roads, do not have existing public sanitary sewerage facilities, are predominantly rural in character, and consist substantially of larger unsubdivided and undeveloped tracts.
