Welcome to Frog Creek Farm, a truly special piece of North Carolina history where timeless character, breathtaking scenery, and endless possibilities come together on approximately 111± acres in the heart of Union Mills.

Inside, you’ll find a beautifully remodeled interior filled with warmth and character, featuring custom woodwork, original hand-hewn beams, stunning hardwood floors, and craftsmanship that tells the story of generations past. Start your mornings on the expansive covered front porch or unwind in the screened-in porch while overlooking the rolling pastures and peaceful countryside. As you step onto the front porch, it’s as if you’ve stepped back in time. You can almost imagine generations gathered here, sharing stories after a long day’s work, watching the sun set over the farm, and enjoying the simple pace of country life. It’s the kind of place that reminds you what home was always meant to be. The land is nothing short of spectacular. Beautiful open grass fields, a picturesque pond, and the crystal-clear waters of Big Camp Creek flowing along one side of the property create an unforgettable setting. Whether your dream is raising cattle, building an equestrian operation, managing a working farm, or simply owning a private country retreat, Frog Creek Farm offers the foundation to make that dream a reality. The property also includes a classic barn, workshop, equipment sheds, and additional farm buildings that provide excellent functionality while preserving the property’s authentic farmstead appeal.
