The lot is fully wooded, offering natural screening and the ability to choose where and how to clear for a future structure. The terrain is mostly level with a gentle slope from east to west. City water is located at the roadway, and PWC confirmed that sewer extension will be needed (cost to be verified), with final design and installation to be coordinated with their engineering department. Electricity and natural gas are also available along the street. Zoning is Sf-6, which supports single-family residential construction on a permanent foundation. The eastern/south-central portions of the lot offers the best conditions for a homesite, situated outside the mapped floodway and wetland zones and closest to utility connections. The western portion contains wetlands and Cross Creek. This area is not suitable for construction; however, it provides a long-term privacy and environmental buffer that enhances the separation between the buildable portion and neighboring properties. What Do I Need To Know? This Shaw Mill Rd parcel delivers a sizable landholding within Fayetteville city limits, combining access to city services with the space and privacy typically found in more rural settings. With nearly 3.8 acres, the property provides substantial road frontage and a deep interior footprint that allows for multiple layout options when planning a homesite. The wooded landscape gives buyers freedom to clear selectively, retain natural buffers, or shape the entry area along the paved frontage. Topography gradually slopes westward toward Cross Creek, and the creek area forms a natural boundary. These features limit development on the west side but also ensure lasting separation from future neighbors. Water flow patterns through the center of the parcel are related to drainage conditions along Shaw Mill Rd and the utility right-of-way. City engineering and a licensed site professional can advise on rerouting or improving drainage if needed for construction planning. The east side is noticeably higher and drier, aligning with the city's guidance on an appropriate building envelope. Engineer review is required for final placement and permitting, but on-site observations support this upland zone as a workable location. Shaw Mill Rd is a city-maintained paved road with a posted 35 speed limit, providing consistent access and proximity to nearby amenities. Schools, shopping, and major transportation routes are all within minutes. This combination of access, acreage, and city utility availability is uncommon for a parcel of this size within the Fayetteville boundary. Living in Central North Carolina and the Fayetteville Region Fayetteville offers a central position in North Carolina with direct routes to the Raleigh-Durham metro, home to major employers, universities, and medical facilities. The city provides everyday conveniences including grocery stores, healthcare, schools, and parks. Residents in this area can reach Fort Liberty, Cape Fear Botanical Garden, and multiple recreation options in just a short drive. The property sits an hour and 15 minute drive from Raleigh's center and the Research Triangle, giving access to employment centers while maintaining a lower overall cost of living. Cumberland County also offers year-round outdoor recreation, cultural institutions, museums, and extensive trail systems along the Cape Fear River and area greenways. This blend of accessibility and surrounding natural areas appeals to buyers seeking land with practical proximity to both Fayetteville and the broader Triangle.
