Who says you have to build a house on it? Tract 6 is 31.11 wooded acres on paved Davis Road, and this one is for the buyer whose land search has less to do with bedrooms and more to do with what happens outside. Hunt it. Cut trails through it. Create food plots. Set up a recreational retreat. Practice your marksmanship. Or simply own 31 acres and leave most of it exactly the way you found it. And here's where it gets interesting: the property backs up to a timber tract containing more than 500 acres. For a recreational or hunting buyer, having that much adjoining timberland makes these 31 acres feel like they're sitting on the edge of something much bigger. There's no HOA and no deed restrictions, and the property is zoned Rural Agricultural. The RA district provides for a broad range of potential uses, including agricultural and outdoor recreational uses. Shooting range facilities are specifically listed as a Special Use, along with other uses that may be worth exploring depending on what you have in mind. Buyers should confirm their intended use and any required approvals with Onslow County Planning & Development. This tract is not being sold as a residential building site. The soil evaluation did not identify soils suitable for conventional or alternative wastewater disposal, and the recorded survey identifies Tract 6 as not intended for development. If you're shopping for a homesite, one of the neighboring tracts will make more sense. But if you're shopping for woods, wildlife, recreation and acreage at roughly $3,858 per acre, keep reading. You're approximately 10 miles from Richlands, 12 miles from downtown Jacksonville, 16 miles from a Camp Lejeune gate and 28 miles from North Topsail Beach. No septic. No HOA. No deed restrictions. No need to pretend every piece of land needs a house. Sometimes 31 acres of woods is exactly what you were looking for.

Want some land without moving to the middle of nowhere? Here you go. This 14.2-acre tract on Davis Road gives you room to spread out, plenty of paved state-road frontage, and something increasingly hard to find: no HOA and no deed restrictions. Build a stick-built, modular or manufactured home and make the property work for the way you actually live. Want a big shop? Chickens? Horses? A garden that gets slightly out of control? Room for the RV, boat, trailers and all the other things subdivisions tend to frown upon? There's space for that. The property is zoned RA, Rural Agricultural, allowing a variety of residential and rural uses. The county zoning allows single-family stick-built, modular and manufactured homes, as well as a duplex or one RV per parcel, and provides for ADUs and accessory structures subject to applicable county requirements. And you're not starting completely from scratch. Septic testing has already been completed, with an approved area identified, seller will provide the septic permit. You're approximately 10 miles from Richlands, 12 miles from downtown Jacksonville, 16 miles from a Camp Lejeune gate and 28 miles from North Topsail Beach. Rural enough to have some breathing room, close enough that a forgotten gallon of milk doesn't become a road trip. 14.2 acres. No HOA. No deed restrictions. Septic work already underway. Bring your house plans, your animals and your toys--and make it yours.

RARE MANOR HOMESITE IN SUMMERHOUSE ON EVERETT BAY! If you've been waiting for the right homesite to build your coastal dream home, 411 Wisteria Lane offers something truly special. This is not your typical Summerhouse lot--it is a coveted MANOR HOMESITE, created when the developer combined three original homesites into two, resulting in a significantly WIDER building site and a layout that is increasingly difficult to find within the community. Why does that matter? More width means more possibilities. Enjoy greater separation between neighboring homes, additional breathing room around your future home, and the flexibility to consider wider floor plans--including highly sought-after ranch-style and single-level designs that can be difficult to accommodate on narrower homesites. Whether you're envisioning a gracious coastal ranch, an elegant custom retreat, or your forever home designed with main-level living in mind, this homesite gives you room to create it. And the homesite is only the beginning. Located within the gated waterfront community of Summerhouse on Everett Bay, you'll enjoy a lifestyle that feels more like a coastal resort than a neighborhood. Spend summer afternoons at the spectacular resort-style pool, gather with friends at the impressive clubhouse, work out in the fitness center, or enjoy miles of walking and jogging trails winding through this beautifully planned community. Residents also enjoy tennis and pickleball courts, playgrounds, picnic and gathering areas, scenic lakes and bridges, and numerous opportunities to simply slow down and enjoy life outdoors. For those who love the water, Summerhouse truly shines. The community offers Intracoastal Waterway access, day docks, a Kings Creek boat launch, kayak access and onsite boat/RV storage, making it easy to trade an ordinary afternoon for a day spent boating, fishing, kayaking or exploring the waterways of coastal North Carolina. Best of all, you can enjoy this peaceful, gated setting without giving up the beach. The beautiful shores of Topsail Island and Surf City are just minutes away, while Wilmington, Jacksonville and Camp Lejeune are all within convenient reach. 411 Wisteria Lane isn't simply a place to build a house--it's an opportunity to build the coastal lifestyle you've been waiting for. And with the added width and flexibility of a Manor Homesite, opportunities like this don't come along often. Bring your plans. Bring your builder. And start imagining life at Summerhouse on Everett Bay.
