Lot 1 Middle Rd., Nichols, Marion

Room to breathe on this 2.35-acre corner home site at Middle Rd and Blackmon Rd, just 2 miles north of Nichols with road frontage on both sides. If you have been dreaming of a hobby farm, this is a great place to start. There is enough room to spread out, keep chickens or a couple of horses, plant a big garden, and still have space between you and the neighbors. Manufactured homes are welcome, along with site-built homes. The ground is mostly open and cleared, so it is easy to picture where the house, the garden and the barn will go. The land is nearly flat and sits outside the flood zone. Septic is already approved with a 4-bedroom permit in hand, so you can skip the soil testing and move straight to building plans. Utilities will be a private well and septic; public water availability is still being confirmed. Out here you trade the hustle and bustle of beach traffic for quiet country roads, open sky and evenings on the porch. You are still about 15 minutes from Mullins, 25 minutes from Marion and about an hour from Myrtle Beach when you want a day at the coast.
