Land for Sale in Parksley, Virginia

Rare and remarkable over 160 acre dual-water property featuring a large, scenic pond and a charming creek on the back end of the land. The expansive pond draws the eyes delight, is stocked with a variety of fish, while also being used in the past as a significant irrigation source. Banked areas along the pond make for amazing viewing and recreational areas. The property includes wooded portions and borders with persimmon, walnut, and other edible-yielding trees. Much of the usable land is at excellent elevations consisting of very high quality Bojac soils (per USDA maps) known for their well drained nature and being the best in the region for farming, building, and grazing. This farm has a decades-long track record of successful agricultural production further cementing the soils fecundity. Current farmers primarily cultivate grains, while tomatoes, fruits, and a variety of vegetables have also been grown here over years past. A summit toward the back of the property offers a “fairytale fortress” setting—an ideal homesite for building a dream home overlooking the pond, fields, and gardens nourished by the rich, fertile soils. Or work with the county on a subdivision plan, with the potential to create numerous beautiful homesteads featuring panoramic pond views, gently rolling terrain, and enchanting forests. Spring and summer have a vibrant play of pleasing smells from honeysuckle and other flowering plants while fall and winter bring a cascading symphony of colors and sounds. The pond was created over 60 years ago with the construction of a dam that now separates it from the creek, along with spillways that manage water flow. Wildlife is abundant: blue herons, otters, ducks, geese, and many other species are frequent visitors, making this property a haven for nature lovers and homesteaders. An absolute homerun for equestrians with plenty of open space and the ability to create shaded areas on level ground. While the overall value is compelling for investors, developers, or anyone seeking the icing on their real estate portfolio cake. This property hasn't previously been on the open market and despite many inquiries a sale wasn't being seriously entertained until now. Making this a very sought after and unusual opportunity for a property of this character and size. Owner/Agent
