THE LAND. Ten beautiful, level-to-rolling acres in Orange County, NC. Zoned AR (Agricultural Residential). Pasture, mature hardwoods, and peace and quiet - but only twelve to fifteen minutes from downtown Hillsborough's restaurants, the Saturday farmers market, and easy access to I-40 and I-85. Twenty-five minutes to Chapel Hill. Thirty-five to RTP and Durham. Adjacent 40 acres also available separately -combine for a 50-acre legacy property. THE INFRASTRUCTURE (this is the part that matters). County-approved 4-bedroom septic permit from Orange County Environmental - already in hand. (time + money saved). Redone well and filtration system - clean water, ready to drink. Brand new floor system on an Intellijack foundation - the most expensive and complicated part of a farmhouse restoration, already done. High-speed fiber internet at the property (yes, really out here). 330-gallon underground propane tank - already installed. Existing electricity and full utility runs. Full architectural and engineering renovation plans available - a complete blueprint for restoring the home with confidence. THE STRUCTURES. 1912 farmhouse taken down to the studs, ready for a full custom restoration with original wood beams and heritage details intact. Three original fireplaces. 30' x 22' two-stall barn with tack and feed room, fenced paddocks. Equestrians, this is move-in ready. Newly built chicken coop with capacity for up to 100 chickens. 35' x 24' detached workshop / garage with electricity and running water. Hobby space, equipment storage, art studio, or income-producing workshop. Existing perimeter wood fencing. Circular driveway, 8 total parking spaces, room for trucks and trailers. THE MATH. Ten acres in Orange County for $395,000. With over $100,000 in infrastructure work already completed (septic, well, foundation, fiber, fencing, outbuildings) and detailed renovation plans included. Property qualifies for farm-use tax classification, meaning property taxes ran just $620 in 2025. Annual tax burden is roughly one-fifth of a comparable Orange County subdivision home.
