McDowell County - 000 Old Fort Sugar Hill Road, Marion, NC
Back on the market... Buyer was not able to execute the contract. Property is fine. There is a kind of knowing that comes from the body before it reaches the mind. John Updike, in Hoeing, writes toward that truth—the slow, honest rhythm of work, the way land answers effort, the way attention itself becomes a form of prayer. The poem isn’t really about farming so much as it is about relationship: between hands and soil, time and patience, effort and reward. This land lives in that same conversation. Here, the ground is not asking to be conquered or corrected. It lies open and level, as if already prepared—inviting rather than demanding. The ease of the terrain is not an accident; it’s the result of years of care, of being worked and respected by a neighboring farm that understands the quiet intelligence of soil. You can feel it underfoot. This is ground that knows what it means to be useful, and also what it means to rest. The views stretch outward without effort. No climbing, no carving, no strain—just space unfolding naturally, the horizon meeting you where you stand. It’s the kind of openness that gives you room to breathe, room to think, room to imagine what life could look like if it weren’t rushed or crowded. And then there’s the creek. Not ornamental. Not seasonal. Not an afterthought. It moves with its own steady purpose, offering sound and motion and life to the land. Water like this doesn’t just decorate a property—it defines it. It draws wildlife, cools summer afternoons, and anchors the land in something timeless. Sit nearby long enough and you’ll notice how it recalibrates your sense of time, how conversations slow, how plans feel less urgent and more intentional. This property offers flexibility without chaos—rare ground that allows you to choose how you want to engage with it. Build a conventional home and settle in with permanence, confidence, and clarity. Or keep it recreational: pull in your camper, park with ease, and enjoy the land as it is, when you want it, without pressure or deadlines. The land doesn’t rush you. It never has. There’s also the very real potential for a hobby farm—one that doesn’t require heroic effort just to get started. The level ground, the history of cultivation nearby, the water, the openness—it’s all already here. This is land that remembers how to be worked and welcomes it again, if that’s what you choose. Like the act of hoeing in Updike’s poem, this place isn’t about spectacle. It’s about rhythm. About showing up. About letting effort be honest and reward be quiet. It’s about mornings that begin with mist over the creek and evenings that end with long shadows across open ground. It’s about land that doesn’t need to prove itself because it already knows what it is. Some properties shout. This one listens. And for the right person—the one who understands that stewardship can be both practical and poetic—it answers back.

Attention: GOLF COURSE POTENTIAL
LOCATED BETWEEN INTERSTAT 40 AND LAKE JAMES. ON ROUTE TO BOONE, BLOWING ROCK , LINVILLE, GRAND FATER MOUNTAIN, MOUNT MITCHELL, PISGAH NATIONAL FOREST, LITTLE SWITZWERLAND AND LINVILLE GORGE.
INVESTORS and DEVELOPERS---MAKE MONEY WITH THIS TRACT OF LAND. IT WOULD MAKE A GREAT GOLF COURSE.
This 372-acre tract of land is HIGHLY DEVELOPABLE and lends itself to division into small acreage tracts and mini-farms. You can AVOID THE HIGH COSTS OF DIVISION AND ROAD BUILDING by keeping your smallest tract at a size slightly greater than ten (10) acres. This both circumvents the requirements of the McDowell County Subdivision Ordinance and eliminates the necessity of building a paved road to NCDOT standards and “giving” it to the State of North Carolina. This also lowers the costs and puts the purchase of smaller tracts into a LARGER MARKET.
This is approximately 372 Acres of HARDWOOD TIMBERLAND, located on a PAVED STATE ROAD (Randolph Road) in McDowell County, NC.; IDEAL FOR DIVISION INTO 10-20-30 ACRE AND LARGER TRACTS WITH GRAVEL ROAD ACCESS AVOIDING REQUIREMENTS OF THE COUNTY SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE.
There is approximately 1070 feet road front access on this Hardwood Timberland, located on paved State Road (Randolph Road) in McDowell County, NC. There is a Woods Road system and at least TWO sizable creeks on the level with sloping land mostly in the southwest having high points with views.
You can fill a market niche for 10-, 20-, 30-acre and various random-sized tracts in this rural area located in Nebo Township of McDowell County between Marion and Morganton, North Carolina! Your main costs will be surveying and building a serviceable gravel road which can be put under an appurtenant Road Maintenance Agreement which will meet the requirements of the NC Subdivision Streets Disclosure Act of 1975. The smaller tracts may also lend themselves to Contract Sales!
DO NOT LET THE ASKING PRICE SCARE YOU AWAY. It is just that…an “ASKING PRICE!” That asking price is $2,686,000.00 NEGOTIABLE!!! WE INVITE OFFERS AND WILL GIVE DUE CONSIDERATION TO ANY BONAFIDE OFFER. This 0.58 square mile of land has marked and painted boundary lines which are posted with boundary signs. The majority of the boundary was surveyed and marked many years ago. A Detailed Boundary Reconnaissance Map by mapping-grade GPS receiver is available on 370 acres. The road frontage has a recorded plat. There is ABUNDANT WILDLIFE including deer, bear, turkey and bobcat. Asking Price is NEGOTIABLE!!! DON'T BE AFRAID TO MAKE AN OFFER.
