THE SHANNON LAND BRIEF

Land in the
Atlantic Southern Loam Plains setting.

Shannon CDP has 1.02 square miles of land in Robeson County. Its Census reference point is in Atlantic Southern Loam Plains, within Southeastern Plains.

Irregular plains of sand, silt and clay support a mix of pine and hardwood landscapes. The region has more relief than the lower coastal plain, with generally gentle stream gradients.

Shannon and Robeson County

Shannon is associated with Robeson County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.

Robeson County

Shannon by land and water

The Census records 0 square miles of water within Shannon, or 0% of its total area. It is 0.2 percentage points lower than the 0.2% recorded for Robeson County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Shannon CDP has 29.2% of the land area of nearby Red Springs town (3.5 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

FROM LOCAL CONTEXT TO YOUR PARCEL

Three questions for
Shannon land.

These starting questions follow this location’s jurisdiction, regional setting, and nearby geography. The answers come from the property itself.

01

Separate Shannon’s place name from its government

Shannon is a Census-designated place, a statistical community rather than an incorporated municipality. Confirm the actual planning jurisdiction before treating a Shannon address as city approval. Robeson County is the geographic starting point for the records.

02

Read the Atlantic Southern Loam Plains setting

Atlantic Southern Loam Plains belongs to Southeastern Plains. Is the acreage upland or streamside, and what existing maps show about drainage paths and road access?

03

Check the route, beyond Red Springs

Red Springs is 3.7 miles southwest of the Shannon reference point. That geographic proximity does not establish a drivable route or legal access. Which road reaches your land, and is the right to use it recorded?

QUESTIONS GROUNDED IN THIS PLACE

Your Shannon
land questions.

Have a tax bill, an inherited deed, or simply a map pin? Start with what you have.

What should I send for land in Shannon?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Robeson County. Shannon’s 1.02 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Shannon property in Atlantic Southern Loam Plains?+

No. Atlantic Southern Loam Plains is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Shannon boundary and individual properties can cross landscape transitions. Open the regional source and the topographic map, then locate the actual parcel before applying regional context.

Can I use Red Springs as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 3.7 miles southwest of Shannon’s. That distance is not a driving route, utility connection, or comparable-sale adjustment. Share the actual access road and parcel records so we can review your property on its own facts.

Can I request an offer without being near Shannon?+

Yes. Begin online with the property location and ownership details. Tell Larry G and the team what you know about the land, access, and any co-owners. We review the parcel before deciding whether to propose a purchase; if a sale moves forward, the closing company can explain remote signing arrangements.
