This is definitely a one of a kind. A Castle in ruins. Perfect for a romantic handyman. Your kids will love you. It's even featured in a coffee table book coming out in a few months in Britain.

The location is on a cul-de-sac just across the street from the actual mountain top of Red Mountain. The view is divine. The acreage is mostly covered in hardwoods. This is actually the highest point on the continent as far as one would travel East or South toward the coast. The structure itself is a mess to say the least. However, a basic structure is there which could be finished. It has been open to weather so it is not for someone unacquainted with hammers and such.

Natural rocky outcroppings protrude from the mountainside. Far down at the bottom of the mountain is the Flat River and a Civil War-era dam. It is so quiet one can hear the river when the birds are quiet. It is well known that people live a few years longer out in the country.

The air is so fresh it is amazing. Red Mountain straddles the Durham/Person County line. These to lots amount to 9.92 acres. This property is about 200 feet from Durham County (Think Lower Taxes) and a mile or so from Orange County. You will not believe there is such an incredible mountainside so close to the Triangle.

The land is a dream and the romantic castle ruins are included for free! The mailing address is Rougemont, obviously meaning Red Mountain, and this is the place to be!

By the way, add 25% to the purchase price if you want to up the acreage to 15 acres+.
