SCOTT W. DO;RSETT - REALTOR • REAL ESTATE APPRAISER I CONSULTANT <br /> 133 E. King Street • P.O. Box 987, Hillsborough, NC 27278 (919) 732-3311 37 <br /> November 20, 1995 0 <br /> yl <br /> Orange County Planning Dept. <br /> Q <br /> c/o Mr. Jim Hinkley <br /> Revere Road <br /> Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br /> Dear Planning Staff: <br /> On November 17, 1995 1 personally inspected the Laura Baldwin <br /> property located at 112 Baldwin Road, known as Reba and Roses, <br /> and further identified as Tax Map 14 Lot 21A Eno Township, <br /> containing 16 acres. During my inspection, I also drove around the <br /> surrounding area, including Baldwin, St. Mary's, and New Sharon <br /> Church Roads. <br /> My inspection found the Reba and Roses structure to be a 200' x 31' <br /> frame building, with a detached greenhouse behind the main <br /> building. The rustic nature of the building allows it to blend in very <br /> well with the surrounding viewscape. The structure is sitting over 250 <br /> feet off of Baldwin Road and there is a natural buffer of mixed pines <br /> and hardwoods that are located along the front of the property. The <br /> gravel parking lot is located in front of the structure and has the <br /> capacity for 12-14 cars. The parking lot is long and narrow and like <br /> the structure, is buffered from the roadway viewscape by the existing <br /> trees and vegetation. <br /> The subject neighborhood consists of mostly vacant farmland and <br /> woodland, with scattered residential homesites, several churches, <br /> and an occasional business or farming operation. Traffic appears to <br /> be typical of other parts of Orange County, and Reba and Roses <br />
