This parcel is to be surveyed off a larger tract. The estimated acreage is 19.5 acres. The western side of the property will be the creek line. It is a very bold feeder creek into Mountain Creek. County records call it West Branch Creek. There is approximately 900 feet of road frontage on Parris Road marking the southern boundary. The land is mostly wooded, but does have approximately 2 acres near the creek that was once cleared out for farming. Land is only slightly sloped toward the creek, but is relatively level throughout the property. Would make a great residential property or mini farm if cleared. There is a paved driveway just past the bridge on Parris Road to access the property. There is somewhat of a path to the cleared area, but it is very grown up.

Bought with Brent Washburn• Washburn Real Estate, Inc.
Seller wishes to sell approximately 31 wooded acres off of a 69.25 acre total tract. The proposed parcel for sale has approximately 925 feet of road frontage on Cove Road and would extend approximately 1450 feet deep into the parcel. The seller lives on the back portion of the property but has access to her home via Parris Road entrance. Seller is unable to pay for a survey at this time, so a buyer would have to pay to have the proposed parcel surveyed off. Local surveyor has estimated $4,200 for the survey with a completion time of 6 to 8 weeks. Land to be sold is totally wooded but seller can''t remember when it was last cut. Buyer prospects can access property from Cove Road, although there are no trails cut in. The parcel on the south side was recently clear cut so it''s easy to see where the for sale tract begins.
