Why this home stands out
One hundred sixty-five acres is a different category of land. Most rural parcels in this part of Virginia top out at 10 or 20 acres. This tract gives you room for timber, agriculture, hunting, or a private homestead — all on a single deed. Southampton County land at this scale seldom changes hands. When it does, it draws attention from buyers across the region who have been watching and waiting.
About the Drewryville real estate market
Drewryville is a small, unincorporated community in Southampton County, Virginia. The landscape here is defined by working farmland, timber tracts, and long stretches of quiet road. Neighbors are measured in acres, not feet. The pace is deliberate, and the sky opens up in every direction. Southampton County itself has deep agricultural roots and a low-density character that sets it apart from the coastal metros to the east. The county seat, Courtland, is a short drive away and handles most day-to-day county services. Franklin, Virginia lies nearby and offers a broader range of shopping, dining, and medical options. US Route 58 connects the area westward toward Emporia and eastward toward Suffolk and the Hampton Roads metro. The region draws buyers who want genuine rural land without sacrificing reasonable access to larger cities.
What's nearby
Franklin, Virginia is the closest full-service town and sits within easy reach of the property. Grocery stores, pharmacies, hardware stores, and medical clinics are all available there. Emporia is accessible to the west along Route 58 for additional services. The Blackwater River runs through this part of Southampton County and supports fishing, kayaking, and wildlife observation. Hunting culture is strong in the area, and the surrounding timberlands attract sportsmen from across the state. Suffolk and the broader Hampton Roads region are reachable via Route 58 for occasional trips to larger urban amenities.
For different buyers
Room to grow
Four walls and a quarter-acre lot tell one story. One hundred sixty-five acres tells a completely different one. This parcel has room for a main residence, outbuildings, gardens, and open land that stretches well beyond the backyard fence. A fenced yard is one thing. A private tract of this size in Southampton County is another category entirely — one with room to expand in any direction you choose.
For buyers drawn to character
Land like this carries a story. Southampton County has been farmed and timbered for generations, and 165 acres at 10445 Southampton Parkway puts you inside that history. Buyers who want a homestead, a hunting retreat, or a working agricultural operation will find the scale and the setting here genuinely hard to replicate. This is the kind of tract that anchors a long-term vision.
