Cheap Land in Virginia near Danville
Lying just outside the city limits of historic Danville, you’ll get to enjoy the city’s conveniences but also the freedom of country living. The extensive cleared and flat areas and very light zoning will jump-start your development.
- Year-round Creek
- Extensive Road Frontage
- On-Site Power Pole
- Very Close to Lakes, Parks . . . and Speedways!
- Mostly Cleared w/Some Tree Groves
- Very Buildable: Flat Areas, No Floodplain, Easy Zoning
- Priced about 12% Below Market
- Fenced & Surveyed
PROPERTY: This 17.44 acres of generously cleared pasture land is harmoniously dotted with pockets of cedar and pine groves throughout . . . before descending into the Golden Branch creek valley towards the western end. The creek was flowing well despite fairly dry weather in late August so the combination of pasture land, shade trees, and water features makes this excellent for horses and livestock. This pastoral setting also attracts a healthy population of deer and other wildlife, so it’s a perfect hunting tract as well, with some great spots to set up deer blinds and feeders. It features about 960 feet of direct frontage on Inca Lane, a private dirt road. There are no structures on site, but power does cut across the SE corner with a power pole on-site, so it’s ready for your development. It’s ready for just about anything, in fact, because its A-1 Agricultural zoning has very few restrictions and allows for a wide variety of commercial and residential structures, including mobile homes. The property has been completely fenced (which is in great shape), surveyed, and the overall layout is gently rolling to generally flat, making it very buildable. The property shares its eastern border with a small horse farm and the overall neighborhood is lightly populated and very peaceful. One of Virginia’s top lake resorts, Smith Mountain, lies only 50 minutes to the north and the much smaller Hyco Lake is about a 20 minute drive to the southeast. If you love motorsports, you’ll love living just 14 minutes from the Virginia International Raceway and 50 minutes from Martinsville Speedway, the only original NASCAR course still on the NASCAR schedule. Danville is just a quick 13 minute jump down Hwy 58 and offers a wide selection of big box retailers like Walmart, Sam’s Club, and Home Depot, but don’t forget to enjoy a River Walk hike while you’re there. If you just need a some basic supplies, Dollar General is perfect and it couldn’t be closer — just a half-mile down Inca Lane at the turn-off.

FOR SALE BY OWNER: We are investors, and are selling this lot For-Sale-By-Owner. You do not need to submit your offer through a real estate agent, and in our experience we close transactions more quickly and easily by having our dedicated transaction coordinator work directly with the Title Company and Buyers. We will also both save money on commission/fees by cutting out agents as the middle men. However, if you feel strongly about working with a Realtor, then you’re welcome to have them contact us on your behalf.
OWNER FINANCING: We do not offer owner-financing but you could get a loan through a bank or another lender and we’d be happy to coordinate with them.
OUTSIDE FINANCING: Your best deal for financing will come from a local bank or credit union and we can help you find a great deal. In this case, we have a few recommendations in order:
- Farm Credit of Virginia in Chatham, 434-432-4641, and they typically ask for 20% down. Their turnaround time is usually pretty quick.
- Colonial Farm Credit in South Hill, 434-447-7148, and they typically ask for 20% down.
- American National Bank in Danville. Call Stetson Franklin at 434-773-2315. They typically ask for 35% down and prefer a minimum credit score of 675.
WHY ARE YOU SELLING IT SO CHEAP? We are often asked why we price our properties at below market value, and the answer is really simple: because we can, and that’s our core business model. We are investors who purchase properties at a large volume and deeply liquidated rates, and by passing this discount on to our buyers, we can sell land quickly . . . and more of it! In fact, our average property only lasts 2-3 weeks on the market (vs. industry average of about 6 months).
DISCLAIMER: We attempt to provide detailed, accurate and up-to-date information in our listings, in order to help our buyers to the best of our ability. However, it ultimately remains the buyer’s responsibility to perform their own due diligence and double check any details that are of significant importance to you including acreage, utilities, build-ability, and approved/allowable use-age for the property. We are happy to help however we can.
