Greensboro High Point Winston Salem, NC, October 21, 2026 —

Forsyth County, North Carolina, has sold 20 acres of land along the Yadkin River that the county had forgotten, according to the available information about the transaction.

The summary does not identify when the sale took place, who bought the property or how much the county received. It also does not specify the parcel’s exact location, how long it had been overlooked, or what led county officials to recognize it as county land.

No details were provided about the sale process, any conditions attached to the transaction, or the buyer’s intended use of the acreage. The information also does not say whether the property had been assessed, maintained or considered for another purpose before it was sold.

The reported area is 20 acres, and the land is described as being along the Yadkin River. Beyond those details and the characterization that the county had forgotten the property, the circumstances of the sale remain unclear.

Further information about the buyer, sale price, timing and county’s handling of the parcel was not included in the summary. As a result, the available account establishes that a sale occurred but does not provide enough detail to explain how the transaction was arranged or what will happen to the land next.
