Why Lumberton.
Why Now.

Lumberton is positioned for meaningful growth. The strategic location, infrastructure, and housing gap create the right conditions for a community of this scale.

01

Strategic I-95 & I-74 Access

Lumberton sits at the intersection of two major interstate corridors, connecting the Carolinas and providing direct access to Fayetteville, Wilmington, and the greater Southeast.

02

Robeson County Growth Opportunity

Robeson County is one of North Carolina's largest counties by land area with significant unmet demand for quality market-rate housing at all price points.

03

Housing Inventory Gap

Lumberton has a documented shortage of new-construction, for-sale, and professionally managed rental housing. Linkhaw Farms addresses this gap across multiple product types.

04

Commercial Demand from Future Residents

A community of Linkhaw Farms' scale generates its own retail, restaurant, and services demand — creating a self-reinforcing commercial corridor along the site's edge.

05

Long-Term Tax Base & Community Impact

New residential and commercial development at this scale generates sustained property tax revenue, utility demand, and assessed value growth for the city and county.

Master Plan

A Thoughtfully Planned Community
for Lumberton's Next Chapter

Linkhaw Farms is designed as a balanced master-planned community that separates traditional homeownership neighborhoods from professionally managed rental communities while preserving open space, trails, ponds, and community character.

  • Northern section: traditional for-sale single-family and duplex homeownership
  • Southern section: professionally managed rental townhome communities
  • Phase 1 planned as approximately 228–230 townhomes along Linkhaw Road
  • Commercial edge near the main road network for neighborhood services
  • Trails, ponds, wetlands, and fringe farm / open-space features throughout
  • Long-term 460-acre master-plan framework — phased development approach
  • Approximately 2,700 units at full buildout, subject to approvals, phasing, engineering, and market demand
A planned land-use split

The design gives Lumberton a clear long-term growth framework while keeping each neighborhood district distinct and purposefully designed.

Community Impact

A Long-Term Growth Engine
for Lumberton

Linkhaw Farms is planned to provide market-rate and workforce housing, commercial demand, open space, and long-term tax-base growth for Lumberton and Robeson County.

Housing Impact
3 Product Types

Linkhaw Farms addresses multiple unmet housing needs simultaneously — for-sale single-family, for-sale duplex, and professionally managed rental townhomes. Each segment serves a distinct buyer or renter profile and expands Lumberton's housing inventory.

Economic Impact
460 Acres

At full buildout, the long-term master plan is expected to support approximately 2,700 units, generating substantial property tax revenue, utility demand, and assessed value growth for the City of Lumberton and Robeson County.

Infrastructure-Conscious Growth
Phased Development

The plan is designed for phased approvals and incremental buildout — starting with Phase 1 rental townhomes — allowing the city to absorb growth in stages rather than all at once. Infrastructure investments are aligned with each phase.

Community Character
Open Space + Trails

Linkhaw Farms integrates open space, trails, ponds, community gardens, and preserved green corridors as permanent community assets — not afterthoughts. The design gives Lumberton a development that serves residents long after the first homes are built.
