Richmond 126 Tract

Richmond 126 Tract – 126± Acres of Timberland & Hunting Paradise in Southern Richmond County, NC

Located in southern Richmond County, just 7.5 miles northwest of Rockingham, the Richmond 126 Tract offers a great opportunity for those seeking a solid timberland investment with outstanding recreational potential. This 126-acre property is a true representation of the Sandhills region—rolling terrain, young pine plantations, hardwood creek bottoms, and abundant wildlife.

The majority of the tract, approximately 105 acres, was planted in loblolly pine about 5 years ago following a clearcut harvest. These stands are growing well and will offer excellent future timber income potential. The remaining acreage consists of mature mixed hardwoods that line Cartledge Creek, which forms the western boundary, and other smaller streams that traverse the property. These hardwood areas serve as riparian buffers and provide exceptional habitat diversity for deer, turkey, and small game—making this an excellent hunting and recreational property.

While the property currently does not have a deeded legal access, access has traditionally been obtained through an adjoining timber tract under a verbal agreement for over 30 years. The property has been used for both logging operations and hunting through this long-standing arrangement, which could potentially be formalized by the new owner.

The property is currently enrolled in Present Use Value (PUV) for forestry, which offers significant property tax savings. Any change in use that results in disqualification from the program and subsequent rollback penalties will be the responsibility of the buyer.

Richmond County, known as the “Gateway to the Sandhills,” is rich in forestry and outdoor heritage. The area has a strong tradition of timber production, farming, and wildlife management. Rockingham, the county seat, is famous for Rockingham Speedway, the historic NASCAR track, and its proximity to outdoor destinations such as Hinson Lake and the Pee Dee River. With its mix of recreational opportunities and natural beauty, Richmond County continues to attract those who appreciate rural living and land ownership.

This property offers a chance to invest in growing pine timber while enjoying the benefits of outdoor recreation and wildlife management. Contact AFM Real Estate in Troy, NC today to schedule a showing or learn more about this great opportunity.
