Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

Nearly 43 acres of open land in Gloucester, Virginia — a rare stretch of rural ground with room to build, farm, hunt, or simply hold. If you've been searching for elbow room on the Middle Peninsula, this is the kind of parcel that doesn't come along often.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Forty-three acres is a genuinely uncommon find in Gloucester County, where large contiguous parcels are increasingly hard to assemble. Whether your vision is a private homestead, working farm, recreational retreat, or long-term land investment, the sheer scale here gives you options that a standard residential lot simply cannot. No subdivision constraints shape what you build or how you use it — the land sets the terms.

About the Gloucester real estate market

Gloucester, Virginia sits on the Middle Peninsula between the York River and the Piankatank River, and it carries a character all its own — agricultural roots, deep water access nearby, and a small-town pace that residents tend to hold onto fiercely. Willis Road places you in the rural heart of the county, surrounded by the kind of working and wooded land that defines this corner of the Commonwealth. Gloucester Courthouse, the county seat, anchors civic life with local shops, the historic courthouse green, and everyday services within a short drive. The broader region connects you to the Hampton Roads metro via the Coleman Bridge into Yorktown, keeping you genuinely rural without cutting you off from the city. Land in Gloucester County — especially at this acreage — is the kind of holding that anchors a family's presence in a place for generations.

What's nearby

Gloucester Courthouse Village is the practical hub closest to Willis Road, offering grocery options, hardware, dining, and county services. The Coleman Bridge across the York River puts Yorktown and the wider Hampton Roads corridor within reach in under 30 minutes. Gloucester Point Beach Park sits along the York River and gives the area a natural anchor for outdoor recreation. Camp Peary lies roughly 20 minutes away, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is approximately 29 minutes — meaningful proximity for anyone with ties to either installation. The Middle Peninsula's network of boat ramps and waterways is also close at hand.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Camp Peary is about 20 minutes from Willis Road, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 29 minutes out — both well within a manageable commute. For military families who want land, privacy, and room to build exactly what they need, Gloucester County offers a pace and a price point that the urban core of Hampton Roads rarely matches. A VA loan can make large rural parcels more accessible than many buyers expect.

For buyers drawn to character

Some buyers aren't looking for a house — they're looking for a place. Nearly 43 acres on Willis Road is that kind of opportunity: room for a custom home sited exactly where you want it, outbuildings, gardens, trails, or simply open sky. Gloucester County's rural fabric and the Middle Peninsula's distinct identity appeal to buyers who want their property to mean something beyond square footage.
