This +/- 78 acre riverfront property in Granite Falls, NC offers just under 3,000 feet of frontage on the Upper Little River. The land is mostly flat and level with good-quality farmland, making it well-suited for farming, recreation, or long-term investment. With extensive river frontage, this property offers excellent recreational opportunities including swimming, fishing, and kayaking, along with a wooded riverside area ideal for camping in a peaceful rural setting in Caldwell County. The property features areas of timber that were harvested and replanted in loblolly pine approximately 10 years ago, offers several good building sites with scenic farm views. The back tract adjoining the river is located in a flood zone and was conveyed to the current owner by a non-warranty deed with a limited legal description, and there is no survey available for that portion or the additional 55-acre tract. Property currently is subject to a farm lease through the end of the year. Property accessed by Sandbar Rd which is non-state maintained.
