- Water, sewer, and natural gas run along 221; annexation by the Town of Jefferson is needed for water/sewer access
- Town of Jefferson tap fees noted: sewer tap $700–$800 and water tap for a 2‑inch line around $3K (buyer pays tap fees and line runs)
Overview
The property is located just outside the city limits of Jefferson, with access planned off US Highway 221/16. Water, sewer, and natural gas run along US Highway 221. To connect for water and sewer service, the property would need to be annexed by the Town of Jefferson. The buyer would be responsible for tap fees and the cost to run utilities to the interior of the site.
For planning purposes, the seller notes the sewer tap fee is in the $700 to $800 range, and a water tap for a 2-inch line that could serve multiple houses is estimated around $3,000 based on Town of Jefferson requirements. The site may also support up to 15 or more lots if annexed into the Town of Jefferson, subject to survey, design, and approvals.
