Property Description
This 20.76-acre parcel in Essex County offers an excellent opportunity for residential, recreational, or investment use in a peaceful rural setting. The property is located 15 miles northwest of Tappahannock and 20 miles southeast of Bowling Green. Bowling Green is the county seat for Caroline County and offers restaurants, shops, a grocery store, and the courthouse. Access is provided by a shared, gravel 50' deeded easement from Bull Neck Road (Rt. 630). There is no road maintenance agreement in place. The front agricultural field is flat and transitions into rolling hardwoods as the land slopes toward Croxton Creek. The southern property line lies within the creek and swamp, creating excellent habitat for waterfowl and wildlife. Approximately 50 wood ducks and mallards were observed on 11/16/25. The front portion of the tract includes about 9 acres of tillable land, suitable for a homesite, pasture, or potential income from farming activities. The remaining acreage consists of mixed hardwoods, including white oak and poplar, providing mast for wildlife and several potential stand locations. The property's diverse landscape offers opportunities for hunting, recreation, and small-scale farming. With open land near the entrance and woods and water features in the back, this parcel provides multiple options for building, outdoor use, or long-term investment. Additional recreation is available nearby at the Mattaponi WMA, Robert W. Duncan WMA, and the Rappahannock River. The location is convenient to Bowling Green (25 minutes), Richmond (50 minutes), and Fredericksburg (55 minutes), making it an ideal rural retreat or future homesite with reasonable access to larger towns and employment centers. Survey is included in the attachments. No soil work has been completed, but the adjoining agricultural lot had a conventional septic approval in May 2025. Property is not in Land Use.
