1934 Loop Rd, Scranton, NC 27875

Discover a unique opportunity in rural Hyde County at 1934 Loop Road in Scranton, NC. Two parcels totaling approximately 13 acres, with one roughly 12 acre tract featuring a classic, early 1900 era farmhouse, plus a second nearly one acre plot. The property includes water access on Jones Creek, which feeds into Slade Creek and eventually the Pungo River. Water access on Jones Creek allows for launching a johnboat, canoe, or kayak and enjoying fishing, paddling, exploring the local waterways, and providing outstanding duck hunting opportunities in this prime waterfowl area! The farmhouse, with original wood floors throughout, is a labor of love project. The home offers about 1,600 square feet of livable space plus an additional 165-square-foot screened-in porch where you can enjoy the natural, country surroundings. The living area is not counted as heated square footage, as it was originally heated by wood stoves in the main rooms (since removed.) This provides a blank canvas for modern updates while preserving the historic character. There are 3 upstairs rooms that could be used as bedrooms, two large living rooms downstairs, along with a full, functioning bathroom. There is a kitchen and dining area that is connected to the house but accessed separately via the screened in porch. The rear of the property holds approximately 7–9 acres of harvestable pines, offering timber value along with excellent habitat for deer, bear, turkey, and other wildlife. The property’s water access, timber stands, and wildlife habitat support a range of recreational uses, while the farmhouse offers strong restoration potential with authentic Eastern North Carolina charm.

There were wood stoves attached to the chimneys in 4 of the larger rooms, but those have been removed. Connected to county water, but uses a cesspool for wastewater that is grandfathered as long as it continues to work. Septic permit applied for in 2003, but denied. A soil scientist should be consulted, and an Engineered Option Permit (EOP) would be a solution if conventional isn’t. Recent pest inspection indicates the presence of active wood destroying insects in the house.
