2889 Mount Pleasant Road, Sherrills Ford, NC

The topography of Sherrills Ford offers a distinct sense of seclusion that is increasingly difficult to secure within a reasonable commute of the city center. This custom residence, completed in 2019, occupies more than six private acres, providing a rare buffer of land just minutes from the Highway 16 corridor. Spanning 3,858 square feet, the four-bedroom, four-bathroom interior emphasizes a thoughtful main-level living program, anchored by a primary suite and a gourmet kitchen with elevated ceiling heights. For the discerning investor, the value of this parcel is underscored by a pre-installed five-bedroom septic system, a critical infrastructure advantage that facilitates the seamless addition of a secondary structure or aquatic facilities. As the regional market continues to tighten, large-acreage estates with existing expansion capacity remain the preferred hedge for long-term hold strategies. Private viewings and further inquiries regarding the site’s development potential may be coordinated through Peters & Associates.
