Located in the quiet and scenic Pekin community of Montgomery County, this ±10.65 acre tract offers a rare opportunity to own a private, rural retreat in one of the most peaceful areas of the county. Tucked away off the beaten path, the property is accessed by an existing road with a deeded 20-foot right-of-way, providing entry while maintaining the secluded nature that makes this tract so appealing. Montgomery County Planning has clarified that an existing lot of record does not require a 45 foot easement. Power company will most likely need a wider easement to reach the property, however, and this should be noted.
The property is primarily open pasture, gently rolling and well-suited for agricultural or recreational use, with scattered hardwoods adding character and shade throughout. A small pond is located on the tract, enhancing both the aesthetic appeal and usability for livestock or wildlife. At present, the pasture is being utilized to hold a small number of cattle, demonstrating its immediate functionality for similar uses.
Three small barns are situated on the property, offering storage and utility space. One of the barns includes living quarters that are currently powered via generator hookup, making it a practical setup for those seeking an off-grid or weekend getaway experience. There is no public power currently running to the property, which further adds to its remote, unplugged appeal.
The Pekin area is known for its rich history and strong ties to agriculture and forestry. This part of Montgomery County lies near the Uwharrie National Forest, one of North Carolina’s four national forests, offering thousands of acres of public land for hiking, hunting, horseback riding, and outdoor recreation. The surrounding region is characterized by rolling hills, working farms, and large tracts of timberland, making it highly desirable for those looking to escape more developed areas. Historically, Pekin was also home to early milling operations and small farming communities that helped shape the local economy.
This tract presents an excellent opportunity for a recreational retreat, small farm, or future homestead for a buyer who values privacy, natural beauty, and a quieter pace of life. Whether you're looking for a place to unwind, run a few head of cattle, or simply enjoy the outdoors, this property offers a versatile foundation in a truly special part of Montgomery County.
