Homes for Sale
in Roper & Creswell, NC

Roper (population roughly 485, a former lumber town that took its name from the John L. Roper Lumber Company in 1890) and Creswell (population roughly 207, the gateway to Lake Phelps and Pettigrew State Park) are Washington County's smallest incorporated towns — thin enough on inventory individually that this page groups them together. Both sit in the working farm belt between Plymouth and the south county.

  • Farm-belt housing stock: Modest and thinly traded — when something does list here, expect it priced like the deep-rural market it is. See the Lake Phelps, Somerset & the South County chapter for the full picture.
  • Gateway to Lake Phelps: Creswell sits closest to Lake Phelps, Pettigrew State Park, and the Somerset Place State Historic Site — a major draw for buyers who want quiet and acreage over downtown amenities.
  • County: All listings are Washington County, NC only.
