Why this home stands out
Three acres of land in Surry County is a rare find at any price point. Built in 1986, this single-family home gives you a working rural lifestyle — room for a garden, outbuildings, or simply uninterrupted quiet — while keeping Joint Base Langley-Eustis and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown within a reasonable daily commute. That combination of acreage, privacy, and base access is genuinely hard to replicate in this region.
ALL OTHERS AREA 70 and the Surry real estate market
Surry, Virginia sits on the south bank of the James River, directly across from Williamsburg, and it carries a character that's entirely its own. This is Surry County — agricultural, unhurried, and proud of it. The ALL OTHERS AREA 70 designation simply reflects that 121 Meadowlark Ln sits outside any formal platted subdivision, which is exactly the point: you're buying land and space, not a neighborhood association's rulebook. Surry County is home to Surry Nuclear Power Station, Chippokes Plantation State Park, and the Jamestown-Scotland Ferry, which connects you to the Historic Triangle in about fifteen minutes on the water. The broader community leans rural and self-sufficient — neighbors tend to know each other, lots are measured in acres rather than square feet, and the pace of daily life reflects that. For buyers who want Hampton Roads employment access without Hampton Roads density, Surry County delivers a lifestyle that's increasingly difficult to find this close to the coast.
What's nearby
The Jamestown-Scotland Ferry landing is roughly ten minutes away, giving you a scenic, low-stress route across the James River into Williamsburg and the Historic Triangle. Chippokes Plantation State Park offers hiking, picnicking, and river access just a short drive south. For everyday needs, Surry's small commercial district handles basics, while a broader grocery and retail run typically means heading toward Smithfield or Williamsburg — both reachable in under thirty minutes. The area's rural character means you plan your errands, but the payoff is the quiet you come home to every evening.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Service members at Joint Base Langley-Eustis are looking at roughly an 18-minute drive from 121 Meadowlark Ln — and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is about 23 minutes in the other direction. If you're using a VA loan to maximize your buying power, three acres of land in Surry County represents the kind of space that's simply not available closer to base. Dual-military households especially appreciate having options in both directions without sacrificing acreage.
For families upgrading
If your current home feels like the walls are closing in, three acres has a way of solving that. There's room here for kids to roam, for a proper garden, for a workshop or storage building, and still have open land left over. The 1,934-square-foot interior gives you three bedrooms and two baths to work with, and the lot gives you the freedom to grow into the property over time rather than immediately outgrowing it.
