Looking for waterfront acreage?! AND a mountain view?! This is the lot for you. Beautiful view overlooking the South Fork of the Catawba River and Spencer Mountain. Conveniently located less than 10 minutes from I-85 and less than 30 minutes to Charlotte Douglas International Airport. So quiet that you would never believe you are that close to the city. Close to restaurants and nightlife in Belmont NC as well as large shopping areas like Franklin Square and Target/Starbucks off Cox Road Exit. A septic permit (valid until 12/2027) has been approved by Gaston Environmental Health for 3 bedrooms, but the property may qualify for more. Restrictions require a minimum of 1400 square feet to build. The waterfront area(about 1/2 acre) is 100-500 year flood fringe area. The proposed building area for the home is elevated well above that and has a view of the mountain also. Septic Permit, Survey and Restrictions are available in MLS

R-1
Single-Family Limited
The purpose of this district is to accommodate single-family site built and modular construction. The minimum lot size allowed in this district will be dependent on the provision of public or community water and sewer facilities. Although areas may be served with such utilities, most of these areas are located beyond existing or anticipated utility service coverage areas. The minimum lot size for residential uses in this district is therefore larger than in other residential zoning districts.
