Tucked into the rolling countryside of Granville County, Phipps Family Farm is a rare 554-acre offering that blends open farm fields, mature timber, and rich bottomland hardwoods -- anchored by a beautifully weathered 1890s farmhouse that has stood watch over these fields for well over a century. This is a true legacy property, where working land and Carolina history come together in one contiguous tract just 30 minutes from downtown Raleigh.
For the outdoorsman, this farm is the whole package. The mix of crop fields, hardwood bottoms, and timber cover creates ideal habitat for whitetail deer, wild turkey, waterfowl and small game, with natural travel corridors between bottomland and fields offering prime, low-pressure hunting rarely found this close to a major metro. Add in room for trail riding, fishing, and simply enjoying wide-open country, and the recreational value speaks for itself.
Location seals the deal: sitting squarely in the path of the Triangle's growth, the farm's size, road frontage, and usable topography make it a strong candidate for rural residential or estate-lot development, a conservation-style community, or a private family retreat with real long-term upside -- all while the historic farmhouse offers the option to restore and preserve a genuine piece of Carolina heritage. Properties combining this scale, diversity, and proximity to Raleigh rarely come to market. Contact us today to schedule a private tour of Phipps Family Farm
