Old Mill/Flat Rock Road Lots

Description

Properties of this caliber are incredibly rare in Stokes County. Enjoy peaceful country living on this beautiful 8-lot, 90-acre assemblage located in the Pinnacle community of Stokes County, North Carolina.

The property features a scenic blend of open crop fields, mid- and mature-aged hardwood and pine forests, gentle rolling topography, long-range Sauratown Mountain views, and water features including creek frontage and ponds on certain lots—ideal for livestock, horses, hobby farming, and recreation.

Located on a low-traffic road with privacy and open space. Each lot has either paved public road frontage (lots 1-3) or paved private road frontage (lots 4-8). Power and fiber internet available along Old Mill and Flat Rock Roads. Recent soils evaluation confirms septic suitability for 4+ bedroom homes on each lot (see soils report).

No homeowner’s association and low 0.715% property taxes. Protected by seller-imposed covenants to preserve natural beauty, aesthetics, and rural character. Property borders the 25-mile public Sauratown Mountain Trail (part of Mountain to Sea Trail) for hiking and horseback riding.

Conveniently located 5 miles to Pinnacle and Pilot Mountain, 8 miles to King, and 21 minutes to Winston-Salem, NC—perfect balance of rural serenity and modern conveniences for your country homestead or mini-farm.
