Why this home stands out

Raw acreage this size is rare in the region. You're looking at genuine rural space—enough room to build your vision without neighbors on top of you. The location sits between two military installations, offering both privacy and reasonable commute times. Whether you want to develop, farm, or simply own land with breathing room, this parcel delivers exactly that.

ALL OTHERS AREA 122 and the Shacklefords real estate market

Shacklefords is a quiet, unincorporated area in James City County, Virginia. The character here is rural and agricultural—long sight lines, mature trees, and genuine countryside feel. You won't find strip malls or heavy traffic; the pace is slower and the land speaks for itself. The broader region is anchored by Colonial Williamsburg to the east and the York River to the north. Getting around means driving—there's no public transit—but Route 60 and Route 132 connect you to regional commerce and services. The county seat, Williamsburg, is about 20 minutes away and offers full-service shopping, dining, and healthcare. Anyone comparing Virginia land for sale in this part of James City County will notice how quickly you can reach both military bases and historic attractions.

What's nearby

Colonial Williamsburg is roughly 15 miles east, a major cultural and tourism anchor. The York River lies about 5 miles north, offering water access and recreation. Williamsburg's downtown—shops, restaurants, and services—is a 20-minute drive. Camp Peary sits 28 minutes south. Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is 37 minutes away. Route 60 runs nearby, making regional travel straightforward. The area blends rural character with easy access to regional amenities.
