Colt Run Rd climbs into the mountains outside Grassy Creek. The trees close in as the road narrows near the top.
Grassy Creek is a small community in Ashe County. This road is how you reach the property from there.
This 1.43 acres sits along that stretch in Ashe County.
It's a manageable size to hold onto and use at your own pace. There's no need to develop it right away.
The ground itself is uneven, following the slope of the ridge it sits on. It's more gradual in some spots and more pronounced in others, so no single description covers the whole lot.
Pine and hardwood trees cover the land. Pine needles cover much of the forest floor, and sunlight reaches the ground in patches beneath the canopy.
If you want exact detail on any one section, you'd need to walk the land yourself.
A small spring on the adjoining Lot 44 crosses onto part of this land.
It has not been verified as a usable water source. Don't count on it for drinking water or household use unless it's tested and checked first.
As it stands, the spring is simply a feature of the land today. It isn't a guarantee of a working water supply.
Colt Run Rd is paved for most of the way up. It turns to unpaved gravel for the final stretch before it reaches the property.
Most of the drive stays easy going. The road surface changes right near the lot, which is worth expecting, especially in wet weather.
Power reaches the property through a transformer already in place at or near the lot. That's useful to know if building or utilities are ever part of your plans down the road.
You'd still need to contact the utility provider directly. That call would spell out exactly what's required to bring power onto the lot itself and to any structure you build there.
Fiber internet also runs through the property.
As with power, that's simply a fact already on file. Getting service activated would mean contacting the provider to find out what's needed.
The property does not have a well or septic system.
Either one would need to be installed separately, and whether that's possible for this specific lot isn't addressed in this listing. Neither is necessary just to enjoy the land as it stands today.
If you're interested in adding water or waste service later on, look into it with the county. That's worth checking before you count on it.
County records classify the property for residential and recreational use. Any building plans or permits should be confirmed directly with Ashe County.
That recreational classification is a big part of why this land works for someone who wants to use it as it is. Walking it or spending time on it doesn't call for any construction plan.
The residential half of that classification describes how the county currently records the property. It isn't a guarantee that a specific building project would be approved, or how long that process might take.
If construction ever comes into the picture, treat this as a starting point for a conversation with the county. It is not final approval.
Grassy Creek is about five minutes away, close to two miles, for basic supplies. New River State Park is about 10 miles away, Grayson Highlands State Park is about 15 miles, and Mount Jefferson State Natural Area is around 20 miles. With a small community nearby, everyday supplies aren't far off.
Having three separate state parks within a short drive puts real public land within reach. That matters more if you're drawn to this property for recreation than for building.
It's recorded as Lot 41 on the Chincoteague plat, in Plat Book 6, Page 421, in the Ashe County Registry. The parcel is listed as APN 05322092041, with a new APN of 053002090094.
These numbers identify this exact piece of land in county records, separate from any other lot nearby. You or your attorney would use them to look up the property.
This property is available either as a cash purchase or through owner financing. Both paths are laid out below.
THE NUMBERS
The cash price is $23,697, and cash purchases in North Carolina carry no doc fee.
Or
Finance it with $449 down and $454.50 a month for 72 months, plus a $25 monthly note service fee.
A $499 non-refundable doc fee applies to the financed path.
Annual property taxes run about $84 a year.
The financing is handled directly, with no bank or outside lender involved. If you go with owner financing, you simply work from the terms above, with no separate bank loan approval process to go through.
That keeps things simple whether you plan to use the land right away or wait on it.
If you've been wanting a piece of wooded mountain ground you can visit and hold onto, this might be worth a closer look. There's no need to rush into building anything.
Land like this deserves a real conversation before any decision gets made, on your own timeline.
