The history of this property is palpable on this 28 acre estate with early 1900's farmhouse, fields, and forest. It feels like you are stepping back in time on this property as you drive down the long driveway with 8ft tall corn on each side before arriving at the turn of the century farmhouse. Completely rural country feel yet only 20 minutes from downtown Hickory or Lincolnton. The acreage is partially fenced and has limitless possibilities for farming, cattle, horses, recreational, or hunting uses. The property is mostly cleared, gently sloping, and features a small creek on the back property line. The home itself would need renovations but the possibilities are endless. There are two parcels combined in the sale with the larger parcel being 24.86 acres and the smaller parcel being 3.31 acres so the property has great potential for a family potentially wanting more than one homesite. Smaller parcel is completely wooded with mature hardwoods for potentially a more private homesite.
