1139 Terrell St, Mebane, NC, 27302

This offering at 1139 Terrell St presents a standout combination in Mebane: 4.53 acres of residentially zoned land with a vacant brick house that conveys at no value. The parcel sits off S. Fifth Street — that stretch has been bypassed by recent road improvements, which reduces through-traffic while preserving direct vehicular access. Utilities on site include a private well and public sewer, and city water is available at the street. The city maintains the road to the nearby pump station, an uncommon convenience for a parcel of this size.

The existing brick home (built 1978) measures roughly 1,405 square feet and contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The structure is vacant and being sold with no value attributed to the improvements; for many buyers this is an advantage — it’s a usable temporary dwelling for someone starting improvements, or a candidate for removal to create a clean development site. With residential zoning in place, the lot is appealing to builders, investors, or a homeowner seeking a substantial private lot within Mebane’s planning area.

What distinguishes this property is its combination of scale and services: large acreage so close to town infrastructure, with sewer already on the parcel and city water at the road. That lowers the complexity and cost curve compared with raw land that requires new septic or long utility runs. The bypassed alignment of S. Fifth St gives a quieter frontage while still keeping the property connected to the town’s road network.

Land-use possibilities range from a single-family estate setting to a small subdivision or a custom build site for a buyer who values privacy without an extended drive to services. The mature parcel footprint invites design flexibility for paddocks, gardens, outbuildings, or walk-out lawn plans. Because the home conveys at no value, the economics favor redevelopment or a thoughtful renovation strategy.

Viewings require appointment; the property is vacant but the home and grounds are being sold as-is. Brokers and buyers seeking a significant Mebane acreage opportunity with essential utilities already in place will want to review surveys, zoning specifics, and utility connection options early in their due diligence. This parcel is priced at $450,000 and offers a rare chance to secure acreage and infrastructure close to town.

This parcel sits in Mebane's mixed residential area where larger lots and infill opportunities coexist with more compact neighborhoods. The bypassed segment of S. Fifth Street reduces through-traffic while leaving straightforward access to municipal services; city crews maintain the road to the local pump station. The area appeals to buyers who want acreage close to town infrastructure, and who value a quieter setting without forfeiting access to local shops, schools, and services.
