Family Homestead for Sale
The Pollard family purchased this farm in the early 60s, and raised their family, crops and livestock on the farm for many years. However, time passes, seasons change, and the Pollard family is ready to transfer ownership of this beautiful Davie County property to new owners. It is truly a gift to take a step back in time and visit the old American homeplace. This is more than a farm, it is history itself, with stories as old as the hand-hewn log timbers in the barns, and the stone foundations of the old farmhouse.
Davie County NC Land for Sale
The Pollard Family Farm consists of 120 +/- acres in Davie County NC, between Mocksville and Advance, NC. The farm is situated well back from the blacktop via a private gravel drive and is invisible from any public road. The soil is rich Yadkin River Valley soil, with approximately 24 acres in open grass fields, 64 acres in old growth mixed hardwoods, 14 acres in successional growth, and the remainder in supporting areas such as roads, buildings, creeks, and a powerline R/W. The house also overlooks a 1-acre pond below the main barn, and a year-round creek flows through the western portion of the property. The bulk of the hardwood timber between the road and the creek as well as behind the house was recently assessed at $227,000, so there is an opportunity to generate some income from your investment even in the short term.
Pollard Family Farm Buildings
The main house consists of four bedrooms and two bathrooms. It is a classic turn of the century farmhouse with white lap siding, a second story balcony, and tall front porch pillars. The original structure was built in 1883, and it has seen multiple renovations and additions over the years. A second smaller home with a two-car garage stands nearby, as well as two old hand-hewn log structures, both with lean-tos added onto the original structure. These serve as equipment and hay storage, a small shop, and livestock shelter.
Recreational and Hunting Opportunities
This is truly a beautiful farm, with just the right combination of rolling hills to be scenic and interesting, yet not too steep for farming or building. There is an access lane through most of the property, and with acres of mast producing hardwoods, successional growth bedding areas, water, and excellent food plot areas, the potential is here to create a first-class hunting property. There is plenty of excellent grass for horses as well as trails to ride them on. Make a dirt tract for your ATVs, or simply spend a Saturday on the seat of your tractor mowing hay or cleaning field edges. It’s what you’ve been looking for, so give us a call today!
