There are properties… and then there are places that change how you feel the moment you arrive.

Back to Earth Farm is one of those rare offerings.

Set across 111 pristine acres in the heart of North Carolina, this private, gated estate has been thoughtfully developed over more than a decade using regenerative, sustainable practices, creating a landscape that is as healthy as it is beautiful. Rolling pastures, mature forests, abundant water features, and internal roads come together as a fully realized, turnkey property—ready for its next steward.

At its core, this is a place designed for privacy, beauty, and possibility—whether as a luxury residence, working farm, retreat, or legacy family compound.

As central North Carolina continues to experience substantial growth and investment, properties of this scale, beauty, and privacy are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

LOCATION
Private and peaceful—yet remarkably convenient.

• 10 minutes to Asheboro Regional Airport | Easy access for private planes

LOCATION & GROWTH OPPORTUNITY
Beyond its natural beauty and privacy, Back to Earth Farm is positioned within one of North Carolina’s quietly emerging growth corridors. Asheboro and Randolph County are experiencing significant economic expansion driven by major regional investment, manufacturing growth, infrastructure improvements, and continued development throughout the Piedmont Triad region. Randolph County has attracted billions in announced investment and major job creation in recent years, including the nearby Toyota Battery Manufacturing development and other expanding employers throughout the region.

Asheboro’s population and the surrounding region continue to grow, while still maintaining the small-town character, natural beauty, and slower pace of life that make this area so desirable.

This unique combination of privacy, convenience, lifestyle appeal, and long-term regional growth makes Back to Earth Farm not only an extraordinary place to live—but also a compelling long-term investment in the heart of North Carolina.

A RARE OFFERING
Properties of this scale, quality, and intentional stewardship rarely come to market.

Back to Earth Farm is more than acreage—it is a complete experience. A place where the land has been cared for, the systems are in place, and the feeling is unmistakable.

Once you arrive… take a breath… and you’ll understand.

ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITY
For buyers seeking a truly turnkey operation, select farm equipment, infrastructure support items, and the farm’s cattle herd may also be available separately at an additional negotiated cost. This provides a rare opportunity to immediately continue stewardship and operation of the property with many essential systems already in place.
