FAQ

In North Carolina, there's a noteworthy aspect of restrictive covenants to consider; most covenants automatically expire after 30 years unless they are specifically for residential purposes only. This statutory limitation is a safeguard against outdated or unreasonable restrictions binding properties in perpetuity.

In North Carolina, blocking an easement is generally not an option once it is legally established. Easements are legally binding agreements or court orders that grant specific rights to others, and any attempt to physically obstruct these rights would likely constitute a breach of the easement agreement.

Set right of way or easements a minimum distance of 5′ to 10′ outside the construction limits. Generally, a typical width of 60′ to 100′ will be adequate.

They are commonly 30 feet wide. Pipes, manholes and meters are often located in the approximate center of an easement, however easements may be located elsewhere.

Property owners may not interfere with the purpose of an easement. For example, if a beneficiary electric company has wires strung across your yard, you can not take them down or block the workers' path. Violators may be held liable for damages to the easement holder.

Right-of-way is a specific form of easement. An easement is usually given across land for a singular purpose such as for a utility line. An easement for ingress and egress (the right to travel) may be permanent but is often temporary such as in a construction access easement.

ANSWER: The owner of real estate does not have any legal rights to access their property from a public right-of-way under North Carolina law simply because the property is landlocked.
