Welcome to an extraordinary legacy property, Willow Pond Farmstead, a thoughtfully restored and meticulously maintained 100± acre country estate offering unmatched versatility and breathtaking natural beauty. At the heart of the property stands a turn-of-the-century farmhouse, originally believed to be built in 1902, now renovated with timeless integrity and modern function. The main residence offers four bedrooms, including a main-level primary suite, and a warm, open floor plan that blends everyday comfort with historic charm. The gourmet kitchen has been beautifully updated with butcher block cabinet tops and a quartz island, stainless steel appliances, a six-burner propane gas stove, built-in oven, warming drawer, a large center island with a vegetable prep sink, and glass-front cabinetry that adds both charm and function. Adjacent to the kitchen, a light-filled, climate-controlled mudroom offers a graceful entry from the carport. With generous space for coats, baskets, and everyday items, it adds both charm and function to daily routines. The living room offers serene sight lines across the farm, filling the space with light and a true sense of connection to the land. The primary bedroom offers private porch access and a beautifully renovated en suite bathroom with a dual vanity, soaking tub, separate water closet, and spacious step-in shower. The upper level includes three additional bedrooms, one thoughtfully repurposed as a home office, offering flexible space for guests, creative pursuits, or remote work. Separate from the main home, a detached guest quarters offers exceptional flexibility. It currently functions as a spacious one-bedroom apartment with a full bath, kitchenette, and living area. Designed with versatility in mind, it has the capability to be divided into two fully self-contained apartments, each with a private entrance, kitchenette, and bathroom. This space is ideal for multigenerational living, caretaker accommodations, private retreats, or rental income. Spanning four separate parcels, the land includes more than 65 acres of certified tree farm stewardship, over 25 acres of open livestock pasture, and more than eight acres of planted Longleaf Pine under active timber management. All but the homesite itself benefit from Present Use Value (PUV) tax deferment, offering substantial annual savings while supporting long-term land conservation. Five scenic ponds are located throughout the property, including one that spans two surface acres and reaches a depth of 14 feet, perfect for fishing, kayaking, or quiet sunset views. Nine outbuildings, each with electricity, water, and Wi-Fi, provide support for a wide range of uses including equestrian, agricultural, creative, or potential commercial endeavors. Once home to endangered heritage livestock and poultry breeds, the land is well equipped with infrastructure for both functionality and beauty. The property also features fenced garden areas, a potting shed, working shops, and generous storage options. Private trails wind throughout the land, offering immersive access to woodlands, pastures, and pollinator-friendly meadows. Seasonal blooms add layers of visual interest, beginning with daffodils and Lenten roses in February and continuing through wisteria, azaleas, rambling roses, and fragrant gardenias in the summer months. Situated within a fast-growing area of North Carolina, the property also benefits from the vitality of Harnett County's expanding communities, which continue to attract new investment, development, and lifestyle amenities. Although it offers peaceful seclusion, Willow Pond Farmstead is just minutes from Campbell University and the Harnett County Jetport, providing convenient access while preserving privacy. This is more than a farm. It is a place of legacy, beauty, and boundless potential. What story will you begin here next?
