1320 Northside Rd, Elizabeth City, NC 27909

Why this home stands out

Most parcels in this corner of northeastern North Carolina top out well under ten acres. At 22.2 acres, 1320 Northside Road gives you the kind of elbow room that opens real options: a private homesite set back from the road, agricultural use, a multi-structure compound, or long-term land investment. The flat, expansive footprint means fewer grading headaches and more usable ground from edge to edge.

ALL OTHERS AREA 216 and the Elizabeth City real estate market

Elizabeth City sits in Pasquotank County on the Pasquotank River, roughly 50 miles south of Norfolk and about 30 miles inland from the Outer Banks. It carries the relaxed rhythm of a small Southern city — farmers markets, local diners, a walkable downtown waterfront, and a community that still knows its neighbors by name. Northside Road runs through the quieter, more rural fringe of the area, where large lots and working land are the norm rather than the exception. If you've been searching for va foliage and wide-open sky, this stretch of Pasquotank County delivers both in autumn when the hardwoods along the rural corridors turn. Elizabeth City itself punches above its size with a regional medical center, a state university, and a surprisingly active arts and music scene anchored by the historic downtown. The pace here is deliberate — people come to build something lasting, not to rush.

What's nearby

Daily essentials are well within reach. The Walmart Supercenter on Hughes Boulevard covers groceries and general goods in under 15 minutes. Downtown Elizabeth City — with its waterfront restaurants, coffee shops, and local retail — is roughly a 10-minute drive. Sentara Albemarle Medical Center provides full hospital services nearby. Pasquotank County parks and the Dismal Swamp Canal Trail offer outdoor recreation close by. For broader shopping or a regional airport, the Hampton Roads metro is about an hour north via US-17.
