Why this home stands out
Nearly 8 acres inside Waverly's town limits is genuinely uncommon. Most parcels this size sit far out in the county, away from services and infrastructure. This one puts you within walking distance of everyday conveniences while still giving you the kind of elbow room that lets you think big — whether that means a homestead, a custom build, agricultural use, or a long-term land investment.
About the Waverly real estate market
Waverly is a small, tight-knit independent city — technically a town within Sussex County — sitting along US-460 in the southern Virginia Piedmont. Life here runs at a slower pace than the Hampton Roads metro, but that's exactly the draw. The community has a genuine small-town character: familiar faces, local businesses, and a sense that people actually know their neighbors. Sussex County surrounds Waverly on all sides, and the broader region is defined by farmland, timber, and a landscape that feels distinctly rural Virginia. If you've been searching for land in this part of the state and want a property that's close to town services without being swallowed by suburban sprawl, 28A863 S County Drive sits right at that intersection. For buyers doing their homework online, note that this address may appear across various listing platforms — but the permanent home for detailed local context is right here. Waverly's location along the US-460 corridor puts Richmond about 65 miles to the northwest and the Hampton Roads metro roughly 75 miles to the east.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are covered without a car trip. Dollar Tree and Dollar General are both within 0.1 miles, and Waverly Mini Mart is just 0.4 miles away for quick stops. Hardee's, a 7-Eleven, and Pino's Pizza #2 are all within a few blocks for fast meals. When you want to move your body, Waverly Fitness is 0.3 miles away. Allen W. Gibson Jr. Community Park and Sussex County Young Men's Athletic Club (SCYMAC) Park are both about a half-mile out, and a soccer field sits less than a mile away — solid outdoor options for families or anyone who likes staying active close to home.
For different buyers
For families upgrading
If your current place feels like it's closing in on you, 7.82 acres gives your family serious room to grow. Build the house you've always planned, add a workshop or barn, put in a garden, or just let the kids run. You're still close to everyday conveniences in Waverly, so you're not trading access for space — you're getting both.
For buyers drawn to character
For buyers who want something genuinely different — not a subdivision lot, not a condo, not a row of town houses for sale in a master-planned community — this parcel offers a rare chance to start from scratch on your own terms. Nearly 8 acres in a real Virginia town means you write the story of what this land becomes.
