Anyone familiar with the Millers Creek, NC area?

[Linda Hastings]

I'm looking for someone in the North Western portion of North Carolina who is familiar with the Millers Creek / Glendale Springs area (Wilkes County). I've been in contact with the owner of a 33 acre parcel of vacant land in the Millers Creek, NC area. She is interested in selling, and I am considering buying to then re-sell later. However, I'm looking for the honest opinion of someone local who is familiar with that area. Although it's 33 acres, the road frontage is not very long, and from looking at Google Earth, it looks like the slope into the property from the road may be a bit steep. I'm concerned about whether or not it would be possible to build on the parcel or if it would be too expensive to do any necessary grading to get into the property.
