Property Description
Palo Alto Plantation is one of Onslow County's few antebellum plantation houses and is listed individually on the National Register of Historic Places for it's significant contribution to the local area. Currently used as a venue for events and a place for guest to stay, this amazing property could easily be a full time residence or a combination of both. It is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. Lovingly restored over the last 13 years, there are still available projects allowing for possible preservation tax credits from both state and Federal. Circa 1827 this plantation originally had 9,500 acres and it is thought that the second owner, David W. Sanders built the current house around 1838 on . Sanders was sheriff of Onslow County before becoming one of the wealthiest planters in the state. His Grandson Daniel Lindsey Russell Jr, who lived at Palo Alto went on to the be the 49th Governor of North Carolina.
