Own a Part of Local History with this 39+/- Acre Farm known as "Mermaid's Point". *According to Local Legend, in the 1700's, Revolutionary War Soldiers would visit Ramsey's Tavern in Modern Day Moncure. After having a Few Beverages, the Soldiers would Walk the River and claim to see Mermaids Washing their Hair on the Sandbars. While this Story could easily be discounted as Folklore, the Origin of the Legend is nearly as Fascinating as the Mermaids Themselves. According to Oral Tradition, Soldiers Believed the Mermaids Traveled up the Cape Fear in Order to Wash Seawater from their Beautiful, Long Hair. Sadly, Mermaid's Point was eventually Flooded, leaving the Mermaids nowhere to sit above the Water and Sandbars. Ramsey's Tavern met a similar fate in the early 1900's, and the Mermaid Legend Vanished from History. Today you can enjoy the Open Fields and Pastures and Walk down a Trail to the Haw River. This Tract has Over 850 Feet Of River Frontage on The Haw River and Is Just Upstream Where The Haw meets with the Deep River. Where they Meet Forms the Cape Fear River. Enjoy the Wooded Privacy or just Relax while Fishing the Local Rivers for Catfish or Other Species. This Farm Offers Many Scenic Views and is just Minutes from Pittsboro, Sanford, Apex, Cary and the Triangle. Bring your Horses, ATV, Hunt or Canoe Along the River. Build your Country Home on this Gorgeous Open Land. Less than 10 minutes to US 1 and Easy Access to the Triangle. * Across the River From Several Plants and the Proposed Vinfast Facility. ** Do Not Enter This Property Without Calling The Listing Agent!
