Overview

This sale features 3.20 acres of level residential land on a quiet dead-end street in Altavista, offering an attractive home-site for buyers planning to build. The property includes completed soil work for a 3-bedroom pump system, which helps streamline early planning. An older existing home is located on the lot and can be removed at the buyer’s request, allowing for a clean slate for new construction while keeping the flexibility of existing improvements in place until you’re ready.

Convenience matters here: the parcel is about one mile from shopping and near Route 29, balancing everyday access with a more private, low-traffic setting. The site’s level grade supports straightforward site planning for a future residence and outdoor space.

The property is well suited for owner-occupants and builders looking for a practical rural-style build site within reach of amenities. With the soil work already completed for a 3-bedroom system, it can fit buyers who want to move efficiently from land selection into the next phase of design and permitting.
