What Can You Expect Living in Old Oaks Estates?
Just under a two hour drive northwest of Charlotte in the rolling hills of Morganton, this 7.09-acre parcel combines privacy, accessibility, and long-term value. Set within the quiet, maintained Old Oaks Estates community (CC&Rs), this lot sits on a paved cul-de-sac with clear road access and topography that slopes gently down as you go west—maximizing both privacy and the panoramic views of North Carolina’s Blue Ridge foothills.
Electricity is available nearby through REMC, and the lot will need well and septic installation (permits already available, a benefit of the POA). The land is highlighted with a cleared homesite at the front, making the initial build process straightforward. At just over 7 acres, there’s plenty of space to build a full-time residence or short-term rental (Airbnb permitted with HOA compliance), while still leaving room for outdoor enjoyment, gardens, or future additions.
The community enforces sensible design standards, including minimum build size and setbacks, ensuring surrounding properties maintain long-term value. While mobile homes and tiny houses are not allowed, RVs and tents are permitted for short-term stays—perfect for occasional getaways before you build.
