Experience the quiet charm of Historic Mt. Ulla - Set among the rolling countryside, this approximately 71-acre property offers a rare blend of open farmland, wooded privacy, and natural beauty in one of western Rowan County’s most desirable rural settings. The land features a mix of open and wooded acreage, providing both usable space and a sense of seclusion. With generous dual road frontage of approximately 2,200 ft, with a split portion directly across the street the property offers flexibility for a variety of uses—whether you envision a private estate, small farm, equestrian facilities, or simply a quiet place to enjoy the outdoors and relax in the natural serene setting. Surrounded by established farms and large acreage tracts, this setting reflects the character and heritage of Mt. Ulla, where land is often held for generations and the pace of life remains rooted in the countryside. Conveniently located within 20 minutes of Mooresville, China Grove/Salisbury for modern conveniences and attractions; 30 to 40 minutes to Kannapolis and Charlotte; the property offers a balance of privacy and accessibility. Whether for personal enjoyment, agricultural use, or long-term investment, this property presents an opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Rowan County land in an area where acreage is rarely available for new ownership. More photos and video to follow soon! Please do not go to the property without a previously scheduled appointment with broker.

RA
Rural Agricultural
This district is developed to provide for a minimum level of land use regulations appropriate for outlying areas of the county. These outlying areas typically consist of rural single-family housing, larger tracts of land used for agricultural purposes, and instances of nonresidential uses intermingled. Multifamily uses are discouraged in this district. This district would provide for protection from the most intensive land uses while containing provisions for a variety of home-based business opportunities and other nonresidential uses deemed appropriate through a special use permit process. It is the intent of this district to rely upon development standards to protect residences from potential adverse impacts of allowed nonresidential uses. The most intensive land uses would not be allowed in this district.
