Why this home stands out
Large contiguous acreage along a primary Virginia highway corridor is genuinely hard to find on the Middle Peninsula. At 13.6 acres, this parcel offers scale, road frontage on Route 17, and the kind of breathing room that smaller suburban lots simply cannot replicate. Whether you're envisioning a private homestead, agricultural use, or a long-term land hold, the size and location combination here is uncommon for Gloucester County.
ALL OTHERS AREA 121 and the Gloucester real estate market
This parcel sits in Gloucester County, Virginia — a place that has quietly held onto its rural, Chesapeake Bay-adjacent identity even as the surrounding Peninsula has grown. The county seat of Gloucester Courthouse is nearby, and the broader area along George Washington Memorial Highway (Route 17) serves as the main commercial and transit spine connecting Gloucester to Yorktown, Newport News, and the wider Hampton Roads region. Land parcels of this scale along Route 17 are increasingly scarce, making the address notable within the ALL OTHERS AREA 121 designation that covers much of Gloucester's unincorporated rural land. Life here moves at a different pace than across the Coleman Bridge — you get genuine open space, mature tree canopy in many areas, and a community that still gathers around local events, watermen's traditions, and county agricultural roots. Gloucester, Virginia land along this corridor sits at an interesting crossroads: rural in feel, but with real highway access that keeps the Peninsula within easy reach.
What's nearby
Day-to-day conveniences cluster right along Route 17 within a mile of the parcel. Little Caesars Pizza, Taco Bell, and KFC are all within 0.7 miles, giving you quick meal options without a long drive. A 7-Eleven is 0.8 miles out for coffee and essentials, with a second location just 0.9 miles away. McDonald's is about a mile down the road. Planet Fitness is 0.8 miles away if you want a gym membership close to home. It's a practical lineup for a rural parcel — the kind of everyday access that makes large-acreage living more comfortable than people expect.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Camp Peary is roughly 15 minutes away, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is about 21 minutes — both a reasonable commute from a large private parcel. For military families who want land, space, and the option to build on their own terms, this acreage offers a real alternative to subdivision living. A VA loan can be used for land purchases under certain conditions — worth exploring with a lender familiar with military buyers.
For buyers drawn to character
If your vision involves a custom home set well back from the road, a working farm, horses, a large garden, or simply land you can shape over time, 13.6 acres along a Virginia highway corridor gives you the canvas. Gloucester County's rural character and relatively low development density mean your neighbors aren't crowding you — this is the kind of parcel that rewards a long-term, intentional approach to land ownership.
Frequently asked questions
How far is 13+ ac George Washington Memorial Highway from Naval Weapons Station Yorktown?
Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is approximately 21 minutes from this parcel via Route 17 south across the Coleman Bridge. The drive is straightforward with no major interchange complexity.
What can you build on 13.6 acres in Gloucester County, Virginia?
Gloucester County zoning governs what's permitted on this parcel — residential, agricultural, and other uses may be available depending on the specific zoning designation. A consultation with Gloucester County's planning and zoning office will clarify setbacks, permitted uses, and any applicable conditions.
Is there road frontage on Route 17 for this parcel?
The parcel address is along George Washington Memorial Highway (Route 17), which is the primary north-south corridor through Gloucester County, suggesting direct highway frontage — but buyers should confirm exact frontage dimensions and access points through a survey and title review.
Are there utilities available at this Gloucester County land parcel?
Utility availability — including water, sewer, and electric — should be verified directly with Gloucester County and the relevant utility providers, as rural parcels along this corridor vary in what's already stubbed to the property versus what would require extension.

Flood zone designation for this parcel should be confirmed through FEMA's flood map service or a licensed surveyor, as Gloucester County contains a mix of flood zones given its proximity to tidal waterways and low-lying areas.
