20.65 ACRES | NO HOA | MANUFACTURED (MOBILE) HOMES OK | PAVED ROAD | CANE CREEK FRONTAGE | WRITTEN SOIL REPORT ON FILE | ROOM FOR A MINI FARM | NEAR CHAPEL HILL AND MEBANE Creekfront wooded land for sale in Orange County, NC (with a small piece in Alamance County): about 20.65 acres on a paved road between Mebane and Chapel Hill, near the Haw River village of Saxapahaw in the North Carolina Piedmont. WHAT YOU CAN DO HERE: Build a home in the country, set up a mini farm or horse property, enjoy a quiet wooded retreat with Cane Creek along one side, or hold a large piece of land in one of the most in-demand areas of the Triangle. WHAT YOU CAN PUT HERE: Most of the land is in Orange County and is zoned Agricultural Residential, with no HOA and no restrictive covenants. Orange County allows a site-built home, a modular home, or a manufactured (mobile) home in this zoning (county setup standards apply). Ask the county about adding a guest house; Orange County has accessory dwelling rules. Living in an RV is only allowed on a temporary basis with county approval. The small Alamance County piece has no zoning, just county setback, creek buffer and flood rules. ANIMALS WELCOME: Farming is allowed in every Orange County zoning district, and this land is zoned for agricultural and residential use. Chickens, goats or a couple of horses fit a homestead here (check county setbacks for barns and animal buildings). GREAT FOR: A country home or small estate, a mini farm, a horse property, a creekside getaway, or a long-term land hold close to Chapel Hill and Mebane. BUILDING: A licensed soil scientist (Agri-Waste Technology) evaluated the land in October 2026, and the written preliminary soil report is now available. It maps four areas, about 431,000 square feet in all, that meet the soil depth requirements for septic systems, and most of that area suits a conventional system. For scale, a 3- or 4-bedroom conventional system with its repair area typically needs 10,000 to 14,000 square feet. UTILITIES: There is no public water or sewer here. You would add a private well and a septic system, which is normal for country land in this part of Orange County. Neighboring homes along the road have electric service; check with the power company about bringing it to your home site. ACCESS: Frontage on paved, state-maintained Morrow Mill Road (roughly 450 to 600 feet; the new survey will confirm). Cane Creek forms the east line. About 27% of the land, along the creek, is in FEMA flood zone AE, and a small area (about 2%) is mapped as wetlands. Creek buffer rules apply along the water. NEARBY TOWNS: Saxapahaw 5.5 miles, Mebane 12 miles, Chapel Hill 14 miles, Graham 14 miles, Hillsborough 16 miles. AIRPORTS: Burlington-Alamance Regional (BUY) 19 miles, Raleigh-Durham International (RDU) 32 miles, Piedmont Triad International (GSO) 51 miles. THINGS TO DO: The Haw River and the Saxapahaw Rivermill shops and restaurants 5.5 miles, Tanger Outlets Mebane 12.5 miles, UNC Chapel Hill and Franklin Street 14 miles. GOOD TO KNOW: The new survey is pending and will be posted as soon as it is in. About 27% of the land is in FEMA flood zone AE along Cane Creek. The land is in the farm and forest present-use tax program in both counties; if the buyer does not keep it in the program, deferred taxes (rollback) come due, and who pays is set in the contract. The neighboring lot has recorded rights over part of this land: a 50-foot private access and utility easement along the west line, a path to reach Cane Creek, and an agreement that lets part of that lot's mobile home sit over the line (that right ends if the home is removed). How to Find the Property and Property Documents are ready to review. The survey will be added as soon as it is in.

You have found it - the perfect 12-acre property to build your dream home or create a private weekend escape. The possibilities here are exceptional, especially with the modern barn built in 2019 by the previous owner. While the barn does not currently include indoor plumbing, it is a fully conditioned space that can be thoughtfully adapted to suit a variety of uses - modern art studio or gallery, a carpenter's workshop, a writer's retreat, a private office, or a dedicated fitness or yoga/Pilates studio. The property also features an extraordinary well, with a water line extended to a charming pitcher pump just outside the barn. An open-air shower and a large vintage cast-iron sink at the well house add both character and functionality, making this an ideal setting for a substantial garden or small-scale farm. With that flexibility in mind, it is important to note that restrictive covenants are in place which prohibit use of the property as an event space. These covenants were established by the owners and their neighbors to preserve the beauty and integrity of the land, ensuring it remains an exceptional setting for a private home, retreat, or farm. Located in Orange County, North Carolina (Mebane), 5956 Whitlow Johnson Lane is one of only four properties within the 92-acre subdivision known as The View at McDaniel Ridge. Per the covenants, the property may not be subdivided without unanimous consent of the other three property owners - further protecting the privacy and long-term character of the community. The existing barn is a beautifully crafted structure that blends contemporary simplicity with timeless character. Inside, an open-plan studio and cozy loft flow seamlessly together, anchored by a striking cupola that frames protected, expansive views of the surrounding landscape. Recent updates by the current owners and a respected local builder enhance the space even further. New architectural windows have been added to the rear of the barn, the interior and exterior have been freshly painted, and the loft has been reimagined into a warm, inviting space complete with concealed ductwork and a custom closet with built-in doors. With key infrastructure already in place - including electrical service, well, and driveway - and soil recently engineered and approved for septic, the property is well-positioned for what comes next. Whether that means building a custom home or expanding the barn to include features such as a kitchen and bath, the groundwork has been thoughtfully completed, allowing the next owner to move forward with clarity and confidence in a setting defined by the natural beauty of North Carolina.
