Mount Gilead, NC 27306 - Montgomery County

This 37.13-acre property, located in the scenic Pekin community of Montgomery County, NC, offers an exceptional opportunity for hunting, recreation, or future timber investment. Situated northwest of Lovin Hill Road, the land boasts a mix of timber, wildlife habitat, and natural beauty. This tract is landlocked and does not currently have deeded access on file. Its secluded location makes it an ideal retreat for outdoor enthusiasts looking for privacy and a getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Approximately 12 acres were harvested in 1999 and replanted with loblolly pine, now standing at around 25 years old, providing future timber potential. The remaining acreage consists of natural pine and mixed hardwoods, offering diverse wildlife habitat and aesthetic appeal. The property provides excellent hunting opportunities, with abundant populations of deer and turkey. The gently rolling to steep topography and a mixture of timber types create a diverse and attractive landscape.

The Pekin community, like much of Montgomery County, has a rich history rooted in agriculture, forestry, and rural traditions. Montgomery County itself was formed in 1779 and has long been known for its vast timberlands and role in North Carolina's early industrial history, including sawmilling and pottery production. The nearby Uwharrie National Forest provides additional opportunities for outdoor recreation, including hiking, camping, and fishing. This region is also home to a strong tradition of hunting and land stewardship, making this property an excellent fit for those looking to invest in a piece of North Carolina’s natural heritage.

This property presents a rare opportunity to own a substantial piece of land in a historically significant and naturally rich area. Whether you’re an avid hunter, a timberland investor, or someone simply seeking a private retreat, this 37.13-acre tract has immense potential.
