Norwood Street, Lenoir, NC 28645

Property Description

Prime opportunity within Lenoir city limits! This 7.45-acre parcel brings together privacy, space, and convenience in one highly versatile property. Tucked away on a scenic hilltop yet minutes from shopping, dining, parks, and a nearby golf course, this land offers an ideal setting for a custom home, investment, or multi-use vision. The property was recently surveyed, and a newly created private drive now provides dedicated access from Norwood Street. Zoned R-15, this acreage supports stick-built and modular homes (no manufactured homes permitted). This zoning also allows for an accessory dwelling in conjunction with your primary residence, making it an excellent option for a multi-generational estate, guest house, or rental unit. City water and sewer are available at the street (tap fees required), offering convenience rarely found with acreage of this size. The land features a blend of wooded and open areas, with the majority being wooded and gently to moderately sloped. Behind 861 Norwood St., there is a level field area as well as an accessible wooded section that provides additional building or recreational options. An old logging road still exists from Norwood Street and winds up toward the top of the hill, giving an easy pathway across much of the property for exploration, potential homesite planning, or future improvements. For those dreaming of a mini-farm or hobby homestead, both livestock and poultry are permitted in this zoning (reference City of Lenoir Ordinances Sec. 3-2: Livestock and fowl within city limits). Whether you envision gardening, raising animals, or creating a peaceful woodland retreat, this land offers room to bring those plans to life. A newly installed private drive leads directly into the acreage, offering a defined entry point for future owners to develop according to their needs. With its rare combination of city utilities, generous acreage, flexible zoning, and desirable location, this parcel is an outstanding opportunity for buyers seeking space and privacy without sacrificing convenience. Properties of this size within city limits are few and far between.
