Great opportunity for a new home site with a unique piece of local history! This level lot features beautiful, mature trees and an older home with power and water already in place. An easement driveway provides access to Rocky Springs Road. The property also includes a 20x20 garage and well house. No known restrictions or zoning. The home has been part of the Wilburn family story for more than seven decades. In 1942, Zeek and Elvie Wilburn purchased the home and 14 acres for $800. At the time, the home was approximately 12 years old. The Wilburn family continued to own and care for a portion of the original 14 acres for generations. In 2020, after 78 years with the Wilburn family, the home was sold to a neighboring family. Bring your vision and make this property your own while becoming part of its long history. Whether you're looking for a new homesite or an opportunity to restore and preserve a piece of the property's past, this one is worth a look!
