Located on Highland Farm Road and less than 10 minutes from downtown Hillsborough which is considered one of the most sought after towns, this remarkable tract offers the scale, privacy, and natural beauty that equestrian and country-lifestyle buyers are often searching for but rarely find so close to the Triangle. The land features rolling topography, open meadow and field areas, natural privacy, young forest growth, and scenic creek adjacency, creating an inspiring setting for a future horse farm, pasture-based layout, riding areas, barns, trails, or a custom country estate.

A preliminary soil evaluation by a licensed soil scientist indicates positive septic feasibility, adding meaningful value for future planning.
