Virginia land real estate

Virginia land overview

In addition to rich history, Virginia has a variety of diverse landscapes and geography. It features misty mountains, colonial towns, metropolitan cities, historic battlefields, horse farms, and sandy beaches. Although eastern Virginia is made up of lowlands covered with swamps and salt marshes, it's also home to great waterfront property on the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay. Central Virginia includes rolling plains, the Blue Ridge Mountains, and the Shenandoah Valley. When you get past the plains and move into the mountains, you'll find deep ravines, rugged peaks, caverns, and natural bridges. The western part of the state is covered in forests and winding rivers and streams. Since the first settlers came to Virginia and started farming, agriculture has been one of the main land uses. Although the number of farms has been on the decline, farmland still commonly hits the market in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
