Description
A rare and remarkable opportunity. An established, fully operational crawfish farm spanning over 80 acres in the heart of Eastern North Carolina. Cravin' Crawfish, just off Highway 43 in Vanceboro, is more than land — it's a thriving, turn-key aquaculture business with proven systems, infrastructure, and equipment ready for its next owner. Ten productive crawfish ponds stretch across the property, supported by a deep well pump tapped into the Castle Haynes aquifer. The ponds are strategically flooded and managed seasonally, creating an ideal duck habitat with a mix of sorghum, millet, and natural vegetation, perfect for morning hunts in one of NC's top flyways. Bring your decoys, blinds, and retriever, the layout supports multiple hunting zones with easy access and concealment not to mention another revenue stream in the winter months as it has been in previous years. The layout is designed for efficiency and expansion, with multiple shelters and a large drive-thru workshop featuring three-phase power and heated & cooled workspaces on each side. Additional outbuildings include a 96' x 24' tractor shelter, 40' x 32' shelter, 24' x 13' office with mini-split, and a 40' x 44' workshop—all built for utility and longevity. The two-story structure overlooking the ponds offers flexibility and comfort. Upstairs, you'll find a 2-bed, 1-bath apartment with a porch that captures peaceful views of the land. The ground floor includes unfinished storage space, a 12' x 16' garage bay, half bath, and outdoor shower perfect for the hands-on lifestyle that comes with running the farm. Located between New Bern and Greenville, and a stone's throw from Vanceboro's town center, this property offers both seclusion and convenience. Whether you're scaling crawfish production, leasing duck hunts, or running guided fishing trips, this property delivers multiple revenue stream potential in a sportsman's dream setting that's as functional as it is inspiring.
