Details
This offering presents a compelling opportunity to acquire a strategically located 13.9± acre tract with significant future commercial potential along one of Powhatan County’s primary transportation corridors.
The property is improved with a single-family brick residence constructed in 1956 containing approximately 1,680 square feet, configured with 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and 1 half bath, along with a brick garage, enclosed porch, patio, and metal storage shed. While currently utilized for residential purposes, the true value of this property lies in its land, frontage, and long-term redevelopment potential.
Zoning & Land Use
The property is presently zoned A-10 (Agricultural/Residential); however, its size, frontage, visibility, and proximity to surrounding commercial and institutional uses suggest that the highest and best use may be future commercial or mixed-use redevelopment, subject to county approvals.
Large acreage tracts with direct access to established roadways are increasingly scarce in Powhatan County, particularly parcels capable of accommodating:
Professional or medical office uses
Service-oriented commercial development
Contractor yards or flex-space concepts
Low-impact retail or neighborhood commercial
Estate subdivision or transitional mixed-use concepts
Location & Corridor Strength
Situated along Maidens Road / Route 522, the property benefits from excellent road frontage, strong traffic exposure, and connectivity to regional growth corridors. The surrounding area continues to experience measured but consistent development, positioning this parcel as a long-term hold or phased redevelopment opportunity.
The tract’s rolling/sloping topography, acreage size, and access to public road infrastructure provide flexibility for a variety of site plans and layouts, subject to engineering and zoning considerations.
Utilities & Infrastructure
Well water
Private septic
Electric service
Oil-fired hot water heat
Utilities are already in place, reducing early-stage holding and entitlement costs.
Investment Thesis
