Why this home stands out

Raw land at this scale is rare in the immediate area. You're not buying someone else's layout or renovation list—you're starting fresh on nearly seven acres. The property's rural character means privacy and space, while proximity to the base keeps commute time short. Whether you're drawn to farming, equestrian use, or custom home building, the acreage and location open doors that smaller lots simply cannot.

ALL OTHERS AREA 120 and the Hayes real estate market

Hayes is a quiet, rural corner of York County with a strong agricultural heritage. The landscape here is open and spacious—you'll see farmland, tree lines, and room to breathe. Life moves at a slower pace than the suburbs, yet Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is just 15 minutes away, and Camp Peary is 19 minutes north. The York River runs through the county, adding water access and natural beauty to the region. When you're comparing homes for sale in Hayes, land parcels like this one stand out for their scale and potential. Route 17 connects you to Williamsburg and the broader Peninsula, while local roads keep the feel intimate and unhurried. This is the kind of setting where you can build the property and lifestyle you've imagined.

What's nearby

Yorktown's historic waterfront and Colonial National Historical Park sit about 10 minutes south. The York River offers boat launches and fishing access. Williamsburg—with its shops, dining, and attractions—is roughly 20 minutes away. Local farms and rural businesses dot the landscape around Hayes. You'll find basic services and a small-town feel within a short drive, with bigger retail and restaurants a bit farther out in the greater Peninsula region.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

About 15 minutes to Naval Weapons Station Yorktown makes this acreage appealing for those with base ties. VA loan financing is available for land purchases in many cases. The rural setting offers space and privacy while keeping your commute short. Build your custom home on your own timeline without the constraints of a developed neighborhood.

Room to grow

Nearly seven acres gives you room to design exactly what you need. Custom home building lets you choose the layout, size, and features that suit your household. Privacy and land buffer you from neighbors while keeping commute times reasonable. The scale also opens possibilities for gardens, workshops, or outdoor recreation space.
