Rare opportunity to own 106 acres on Shortcut Rd in Gold Hill, NC. This diverse rural property offers a strong mix of planted pines in various stages of growth, mature open hardwood forest that has not been cut in decades, and year-round water from a stream through the center of the tract plus another near the back. An established driveway leads to an older livable home with functional septic and well already in place. Several outbuildings and two carports provide added utility for equipment, storage, or hobby use. Access trails are cut throughout much of the property, making it easy to reach interior sections and enjoy recreational riding. With abundant deer population, varied timber, water, cover, and privacy, this property is an outdoorsman’s paradise with excellent potential for hunting, recreation, homesteading, timber management, or a private country retreat.

This district is comprised mostly of lands usually found on the eastern side of the County which, due to physical characteristics such as soil type, topography, etc., should remain agrarian. To a lesser degree, these are also those lands which are conducive to providing recreationally oriented open space. These land areas should remain the farmland and undeveloped/forested land of the County. Public utilities will not be planned for these areas. Consequently, residential uses that support those working and/or owning the land, home occupations allied with existing residences, and very limited business endeavors are envisioned as complementary to the area. In sum, the primary activity of these lands is agricultural - housing and business are typically related to, and supportive of, the practice of modern day agriculture. It is not, however, improbable that a small hamlet type settlement might evolve in this zoning district. As to those areas constituting open space, manmade uses must take care to enhance and not detract from the essential character of the area.
