Well-Upgraded 3BR Ranch on 1.04 Acres in Shannon
Set back at the end of a private maintained drive, 96 Conley Drive offers single-level living on a full acre — an appealing combination for buyers seeking privacy without sacrificing convenience. This 1,482-square-foot ranch, built in 2000, sits on a level 1.04-acre parcel and presents a tidy, well-maintained interior with practical updates completed for everyday comfort.
Step inside to find a thoughtful 2021 kitchen update that anchors the home—modern surfaces, efficient layout, and durable flooring blend with adjacent living spaces to support everyday life and weekend gatherings. The primary suite includes an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in closet, while two additional bedrooms and a second full bath keep the floorplan comfortably flexible for visiting family or a home office. Flooring throughout is a practical mix of hardwood, tile, and vinyl, with new carpet installed in 2026 for fresh comfort in the sleeping areas.
Systems and site details that matter: central air and an electric heat pump, shingle roof, private well and septic, and a single-car attached garage plus driveway parking for multiple vehicles. The lot’s scale and level topography make it easy to plan raised beds, a play area, or a workshop. With Wagon Wheel Road less than a quarter-mile away and Red Springs (≈4.5 miles) and Lumber Bridge (≈5 miles) nearby, essential errands and community services are a short drive; Fayetteville sits roughly 20 miles to the north for expanded shopping and employment options.
This property reads as a ready-to-occupy country home with recent cosmetic and functional upgrades that lower near-term maintenance needs. Buyers who value privacy, single-level convenience, and a manageable acreage will appreciate the balance this ranch strikes between rural character and regional access.

96 Conley Dr, Shannon, NC 28386
Shannon sits in a quiet, rural pocket of Robeson County where residential properties sit alongside agricultural parcels. Life here favors privacy, outdoor space, and a slower pace: you’ll find short drives to community services in Red Springs and Lumber Bridge, while Fayetteville is about 20 miles away for broader retail, dining, and employment options. Local roads are low-traffic and the area supports small-scale gardening and hobby farming. Public schools in the district have mixed reviews, and many residents choose the neighborhood for land, affordability, and a countryside lifestyle.
Good access to open-country recreation on the property and adjacent rural roads for walking and riding; Fayetteville (≈20 miles) provides regional parks, trails and larger outdoor amenities.
A factual market snapshot around 96 Conley Dr.
Local market indicators point to a modest, data-driven opportunity for buyers. Robeson County’s corridor around Shannon is characterized by a slower-moving, rural market where inventory sits around 3.5 months and average days on market run near 60 — conditions the local report classifies as a buyer’s market. Recent comparable sales within five miles are clustered between $168,000 and $179,000 with price-per-square-foot readings near $110–$116; those comps support a conservative valuation midpoint of approximately $180,000 (about $121/SF) for a well-updated 3BR/2BA ranch like 96 Conley Dr.
Single-family homes on acre-plus lots tend to trade more slowly than urban product but attract a specific buyer set: household buyers seeking privacy, small-scale agriculture, or a downsized single-level plan. Appreciation in the local corridor has been modest — roughly 4% over the past year and about 15% over five years — suggesting steady, not speculative, upside. For an active buyer, present market conditions offer negotiating room on rural listings and a chance to secure a turnkey property with recent updates (kitchen 2021, new carpet 2026). Investors should note rental estimates near $1,200/month and moderate rental demand for country rentals.
