An ISLAND? Yes, you read that right. This 29-acre private island is in the middle of the Dan River close to South Boston, Virginia. It has tall trees on it and lays well for hunting and fishing, maybe even a cabin to be built. But is it really a buildable homesite as such? Who knows?? You can’t even pull power to an island (or not that we know of), so probably not. But what if it also came with a 13-acre homesite up on the bluff with legal access to the state road that was approved for septic and ready to build on? Well, now you’ve got something, especially if it sits up high enough to be well out of the flood plain and that has magnificent river and forest views. And if comes with the ruins of an old stone mill on the site just for coolness. For an adventurous soul ready to brave the river who can have some vision and imagination, we’ll take you out there in a four-wheel-drive and a jon boat and let you decide for yourself. This is a real opportunity, I am one of the owners and we have been in the real estate business 30+ years and this is the first time we’ve had an island to sell. Adventures await!

Rodgers Island – Halifax County

Buying land from Countryside is always super simple! 

We offer easy owner financing with a low down payment, competitive interest rate, no credit check, no closing costs, and never any prepayment penalty. 

Interested? Call today for a showing. We’ll meet you at the property, walk it as much as you want to, answer all your questions, and talk about whether it’s the right one for you. If it is, we have contracts in hand to prepare your offer. 

Countryside has been selling land in Virginia for many years so the process is an easy one. You make a deposit payment of a couple thousand dollars or so depending on the property (cash, check, or credit card is fine! No bitcoin…) and your salesperson writes it up on the spot. Got a real estate agent? No problem, just have them call us early in the process so everything goes smoothly. The soil work is often done ahead of time for your septic system which is one less thing you have to worry about. We then set a closing date and you sign your offer. The salesperson will usually scan it to the office for a manager of the company to execute. If your offer is a good one, you’re all set! Just remember that we almost always get our price when we’re financing, so keep that in mind so you don’t miss out on the property of your choice. Of course you can always make a strong all-cash offer if you like. Our property availability is always first come, first serve and we do not hold properties while someone is thinking about it. Once your deal is signed the salesperson then provides you with your fully executed copy of the purchase contract and we’ll see you at the closing table. It really is that easy!
