    Overview

    Lot #3 comprises approximately 13 acres in the foothills just outside Morganton in Burke County, North Carolina. The land features a hay field, a mid-aged loblolly pine plantation, mature hardwood forest, and mountain views, with more than 1,000 feet of Silver Creek frontage. A new driveway entrance is included, and the property has paved public road frontage. There is no HOA, and the parcel is subject to two deed restrictions: it may not be further subdivided and no mobile/manufactured homes are allowed.

    Public water is available, power is available, and soils are described as suitable for septic. Property access is provided via the new driveway entrance off Morrison Road. The location is noted as convenient to Interstate 40 and nearby recreation, including proximity to South Mountains State Park and Game Lands, which totals 20,949 acres of public recreation land. The property is described as about 15 minutes from Morganton, 13 minutes from Lake James, and roughly 45 minutes from Asheville.

    This tract fits buyers looking for larger-acreage privacy with year-round water frontage and natural cover, while maintaining practical development considerations through available public water, power, and septic-suitable soils. The deed restriction against further subdivision and the prohibition on manufactured homes should be reviewed by anyone planning a single-family build or other uses consistent with those terms.
