+/- 54.42-acre Multiuse Property for Sale in Durham County, NC!

Wooded Private Estate or Development Opportunity with Trails & Direct Game Land Access

This is a rare chance to own +/-54.42 acres of beautiful wooded land with new trails, a creek, strong timber, and direct access to public game lands and the Flat River — all just minutes from Durham.

This offering combines two contiguous tracts (Lot 2 +/-21.73 acres + Lot 3 +/-32.68 acres) into one exceptional 54.42-acre package. The property features approximately 800 feet of total road frontage on Cassam Road, multiple excellent homesite locations, roughly 24+ acres of planted loblolly pines, a small creek with attractive hardwood bottoms, and a perimeter internal trail network totaling over 1.2 miles. The land is diverse, private, and ready for immediate enjoyment or thoughtful development.

Unmatched Recreational Access

The western boundary of the combined property adjoins the Butner-Falls of Neuse Game Land, part of the massive 37,480-acre North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission complex spanning Durham, Granville, and Wake Counties. Owners can step directly onto public land and access the Flat River for fishing, paddling, hiking, wildlife viewing, camping, and seasonal hunting. This private-to-public land and river connection is extremely scarce in this part of Durham County and truly makes this a one-of-a-kind offering.

Ideal for Neighborhood Developers

The seller has an existing site plan for the property, making this an attractive opportunity for a developer or builder seeking a ready-to-move project in a high-demand area. With solid road frontage, varied topography, existing trails, timber value, and the unique selling point of direct game land and river access, the tract offers strong potential for a small upscale neighborhood, estate lots, or a conservation-style development. Preliminary work already completed by the seller can help shorten the timeline from acquisition to development.
