This 5.40 acre tract sits on a paved, state-maintained stretch of NC Highway 96 just north of Oxford, with 395 feet of direct road frontage and no HOA or restrictions to work around.

The land runs long and gently rolling, roughly 874 feet deep, mostly wooded (providing privacy). The highway frontage and the central and eastern portion of the tract read as upland, the natural place for a home, while the western back portion is a wooded freshwater wetland that adds privacy and a green buffer at the rear. County maps show wetland over about a quarter of the parcel, all toward the back, and there is no FEMA special flood hazard identified. There is no homeowners association, no recorded subdivision, and no covenants. This is unrestricted (zoned AR-40) land, keeping your options open for a site-built home, modular, manufactured or agricultural use. No public water or sewer; private well and private septic required. Electric available along the NC Hwy 96 corridor (confirm service with provider). Soils on this tract are Nason and Enon, common Piedmont soil types found throughout Granville County and across many local homesites.

Butner and Creedmoor are about 20 minutes south, Henderson and Kerr Lake about 25 to 30 minutes north, and Durham and the Research Triangle sit under an hour away.
