Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

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

At a glance

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Twelve and three-quarter acres is a serious canvas. Whether you're envisioning a private homestead, a hobby farm, or a long-range investment in one of the most secluded corners of the Albemarle Sound region, Lot C Whitehurst Road delivers the room to do it right. No HOA means no committee standing between you and your vision — just land, sky, and possibility on a peninsula that genuinely earns the word 'peaceful.'

KNOTTS ISLAND NC and the Knotts Island real estate market

Knotts Island is a place that operates on its own rhythm. Tucked between Currituck Sound and the North Carolina–Virginia border, the island is accessible by road through Virginia Beach or by the free Knotts Island Ferry from Currituck — a scenic crossing that underscores just how removed this community feels from the suburban sprawl to the north. The Knotts Island community is small by design: family farms, wildlife refuges, vineyards, and wide-open marshland define the landscape far more than traffic lights or strip malls. Currituck County governs the area, keeping the rural character intact. For buyers who want acreage in a setting that hasn't been subdivided into oblivion, Knotts Island NC is one of the last genuinely unhurried places within striking distance of Hampton Roads. Daily life here is quiet, intentional, and grounded — exactly what a 12.79-acre lot deserves.

What's nearby

The Knotts Island Ferry landing connects the island to Currituck's mainland, making errands and day trips straightforward. Martin's Point Vineyards is a short drive away and gives the area an unexpected anchor for weekend afternoons. The Mackay Island National Wildlife Refuge borders the community, offering miles of trails and paddling routes through pristine coastal marshland. For broader shopping and services, Moyock and Currituck provide grocery and hardware options within a reasonable drive. Virginia Beach's retail corridor is accessible via the northern land route, keeping the island genuinely connected without feeling suburban.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Service members stationed at Dam Neck Annex — roughly 37 minutes north — sometimes look beyond Virginia's border for land and space that a typical subdivision simply can't offer. Lot C Whitehurst Road is that option: nearly 13 acres in a low-density, no-HOA setting, with a VA loan potentially financing the purchase of land paired with a construction plan. Room to build, room to breathe, and a commute that stays manageable.

For buyers drawn to character

If you've spent years scanning listings and thinking 'too small, too crowded, too controlled,' Lot C Whitehurst Road is a different conversation entirely. Nearly 13 acres on a peninsula that still looks and feels like coastal Carolina did a generation ago — no HOA, no density pressure, no neighbors stacked on top of each other. This is land for people who know exactly what they want and are willing to go find it.

More buyer questions

How far is LOT C Whitehurst Road from Dam Neck Annex?

Dam Neck Annex is approximately 37 minutes from Knotts Island via the northern land route through Virginia Beach. The drive is straightforward and largely free of major congestion outside peak hours.

What can you build on a 12.79-acre lot in Knotts Island, NC?

Currituck County zoning governs what's permitted on this parcel — typical rural-zoned land in the area allows for single-family residential construction, agricultural use, and accessory structures, but buyers should confirm specific permitted uses and setback requirements directly with Currituck County Planning.

Is LOT C Whitehurst Road in a flood zone?

Knotts Island's coastal and marsh-adjacent geography means flood zone status varies by parcel. Buyers should review the current FEMA flood map for this specific lot and consult with a licensed surveyor or lender for an accurate determination.

Can a VA loan be used to purchase raw land in North Carolina?

VA loans are generally structured for the purchase of a primary residence, but some lenders offer construction-to-permanent VA loan programs that include the land purchase when paired with a qualifying build plan — worth discussing with a VA-approved lender familiar with North Carolina requirements.

How do you get to Knotts Island, NC?

Knotts Island is accessible two ways: by road through Virginia Beach and down into Currituck County, or via the free Knotts Island Ferry that runs from Currituck on the mainland — a scenic option that takes roughly 45 minutes and runs on a published seasonal schedule.
