DeBerry's Mill Estate - A One-of-a-Kind Legacy Property in Northeastern North Carolina Introducing the historic DeBerry's Mill Estate, a truly exceptional offering that blends natural beauty, history, and unmatched versatility across a remarkable landscape. At the heart of the property is a breathtaking 62-acre lake, offering outstanding opportunities for bass fishing, waterfowl hunting, and year-round recreation. Stands of flooded cypress create a striking visual backdrop while providing ideal habitat and cover for wildlife. Surrounding the lake are approximately 94 acres of productive farmland and 185 acres of timberland, delivering a rare balance of income potential, recreation, and long-term investment value. The estate also features a 2-acre homesite complete with a main residence, guest house, and a historic working mill house--each contributing to the property's unique character and functionality. The mill house offers a nostalgic glimpse into the past, with remnants of its former use, including bait tanks from earlier days when fishing was a central draw. From open fields designed for efficient farming to wooded edges and natural corridors rich with wildlife, this property is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you're pursuing waterfowl over the flooded timber, stalking a spring gobbler, or waiting on a mature buck or bear, the diversity and layout of the land create an exceptional experience. The possibilities here are truly endless. This property is ideally suited for a private estate, sporting estate, retreat center, wedding venue, working farm, or recreational destination--limited only by your vision. The main home and guest house overlook the mill and water, offering a scenic and peaceful setting. The main residence is currently being cleared through an estate sale, with additional interior details and photos to be provided soon. Located in Conway, NC, the property enjoys a strategic location--nearly equidistant from Raleigh, Richmond, and Virginia Beach--making it both accessible and private. Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. DeBerry's Mill Estate is more than a property--it's a legacy waiting to be continued.
