39.25± Acres | Premier Estate Development Opportunity | Orange County, NC. An exceptional opportunity to acquire approximately 39.25 contiguous acres in one of Orange County's most desirable growth corridors. Combining development flexibility, natural beauty, and long-term investment potential, this remarkable property is ideally suited for a custom home builder, boutique developer, private family compound, equestrian estate, or luxury estate community. Approximately 28 acres of mature timber offer the potential for income through a selective timber harvest, helping offset future development costs while preserving the property's natural character. The remaining 11.75± acres of open meadow provide an outstanding setting for premium homesites, community green space, equestrian facilities, or a dramatic entrance. Approximately 1.75 miles of total road frontage, including Mountain Creek Road (approximately 0.75 mile), NC Highway 86 (approximately 0.50 mile), and Darcey Lane (approximately 0.50 mile), provide exceptional access and flexibility for future planning and development.

Conveniently located just minutes from Hillsborough and within easy reach of Chapel Hill, Durham, and the greater Triangle region, this exceptional property offers the ideal combination of accessibility, privacy, and future potential.
