Schedule your qualified tour today! Land This 950 +/- acre parcel, known as Hog Island, dates back to the late 1700s when it was a land grant from the King of England! It has a rich history of many uses, including being a part of the first ferry system in North Carolina. It was a haven for moonshiners and has a documented history of being a working farm as well as claims of being home to giant alligators and water moccasins. Today, this property is an amazing display of what nature has intended in this part of the state. It is home to multiple species of game that travel unwary of any human pressure. Bears, deer, and turkeys have been seen on this property, as well as its rich history of duck hunting in the hidden waters between Hog Island and Blaire's Island on the south side. Because this parcel is so unique, the current owners enrolled it into a conservation easement program with Ducks Unlimited to maintain its magnificent beauty and to be great stewards of the land. The easement allows for some flexibility in the new construction of additional dwellings and the placement on the island. According to the owners interpretation, there are approximately 31 acres on the Island that are not in the easement and allow for over 6000 additional square feet of buildings and up to 6 docks can be constructed per the agreement. Copies of the easement for review can be provided to qualified buyers. The island is a fantastic display of coastal Carolina flora and fauna. Its minimal elevation change may peak 30 +/- feet above sea level. The high ground on the island is littered with large pine trees and scattered hardwoods. The intermittent marshland in between the high spots is dominated by huge cypress and gum trees, with marshland grasses dominating the outer fringes of the barriers.

Region & Climate Hog Island is located in the great town of New Bern, NC, at the confluence of the Neuse and the Trent rivers near the headwaters of Pamlico Sound on the coast of NC. New Bern was settled in 1710 by the Swiss. It is the second oldest city in the state after Bath, NC. It served as the capital of NC from 1770 to 1792 and became known as the Athens of The South with the development of its rich cultural life after the American Revolution. New Bern thrived from its trade routes to the Caribbean and New England in the late 1800s. In addition, New Bern became one of the largest lumber centers in all the South. Since those times, New Bern has experienced dramatic population growth but remains a small, energetic, and quaint town. The last census from 2020 shows a population of over 30,000. The area lies in the Atlantic coastal plain and experiences a typically humid subtropical climate. Summers are hot and humid, with frequent afternoon thunderstorms bringing a yearly precipitation average of 53 inches. On average, the winters are milder and drier than the remainder of the year, with infrequent snowfall. History Hog Island has a profound history in the region. The island has been a part of many regional firsts and an integral part of the region's history. It was part of the first ferry system in eastern NC. One can still see the pylons under the water on old maps and aerial photos. The owners described what was known as a ferry boat depot building that once stood on the Neuse river side of the island. There are also old newspaper articles that describe the large alligator population on the island. The articles describe loud bellows at night that were a nuisance to the city dwellers and plans to reduce the numbers of alligators with an open hunting season. I have another article that speaks of a water moccasin that was taken from the shores of the island with a catfish 14 inches long and four and half inches wide in the snake's stomach. One of the best depictions of the island is the article by Lela Barrow Trip To Hog Island and visiting the Brewer family. It mentions the Big 2 story farmhouse with nice barns, stock houses: horses, mules, cattle, hogs, chickens. It describes big gardens and multiple groves on the farm. This description best suits this offering and how an owner would feel being so secluded, but close to town. Location Hog Island is located only 18 minutes via boat from the Union Point Boat Ramp in New Bern, NC. This Island can also be accessed by a small boat, weather permitting, SeaPlane or Helicopter with ease. The Island is situated between the banks of the Neuse river right about the point where the river widens. New Bern, NC is the birthplace of Pepsi and has a thriving downtown with numerous dining opportunities within a 10 minute walk from the Union Point Boat Ramp. The closest airport is Coastal Carolina Regional Airport; it is only 3 miles from the central business district of New Bern. Raleigh Durham ( RDU) is an international airport and is a 2hr drive to the NW.

Craven County has plenty of animals, and as the saying goes, "if you feed them, they will come." Here's a fun fact for you... "If you know bears, then you know North Carolina is home to the largest black bears in America. The state's record-holding bear was so enormous, in fact, that he's likely one of the largest to ever live. The state black bear record, and perhaps the world record, was broken in November, 1998, when Coy Parton killed an 880-pound bear near Vanceboro in Craven County. The bear exceeded the old state record by 160 pounds, cites Wildlife in North Carolina, Vol. 63 Issue 2, Feb 1999, p34. To this day, this remains one of the largest black bears ever harvested, and one of the largest if not the largest in North Carolina history. And although no measurements outside weight exist for this bear, examining other record-breakers gives us a solid idea of the sheer height of this animal."
