Municipal water is available at the NC-133 frontage. This tract could potentially support 300 or more single family residential lots with the appropriate infrastructure.

These conditions create incredible opportunity for new housing developments in the area. Pender County is historically favorable to residential development with fewer barriers to entry than other counties in the region.
