Approximately 70 acres of farmland at 5964 E Godwin Lake Road, held by the same family for generations and believed to date back to the late 1700s to early 1800s. The land and structures reflect long-standing agricultural use and rural stewardship. The primary two-story farmhouse offers approximately 2,522 square feet with three bedrooms and two and one half baths. Expanded gradually over time, the home reflects multiple eras of construction rather than a single period. Interior spaces include a den and a separate parlor, both with fireplaces, along with dining and gathering areas characteristic of an older farmhouse. A flexible main-level room provides additional space that could function as a fourth bedroom, home office, or hobby room. An enclosed porch overlooks the surrounding acreage. Heart pine hardwood flooring remains in portions of the home. A detached wash house remains on site and is believed to have once served as an original kitchen structure. A large cauldron still remains, offering a glimpse into early farmstead life. The acreage includes ponds, established blueberry bushes, mature pecan trees, and abundant wildlife, with frequent sightings of quail, ducks, deer, and turkey, and seasonal duck migration observed throughout the area. Camellias, azaleas, and extensive daylilies enhance landscaped and naturalized portions of the property. A separate one-story residence is also located on the property and includes its own well, septic system, and electricity. Both residences are being sold in as-is condition. No county records were found for septic permits for either residence. Additional improvements include a traditional potato barn with electricity connected, suitable for storage, workshop use, or equipment parking. This offering presents an opportunity to acquire substantial acreage with historical character, natural features, and long-held family ownership in rural North Carolina.
