Due to Buyer Default, auction has been extended until October 16th @ 2PM This property is being sold through a virtual auction on listing brokerage website. List price does not reflect the final sale price. Property conveys as-is, where is. There is a 10% buyers premium. See auction website for all terms, auction info and property info. A rare, ready-to-build homesite in the Blue Ridge foothills, where two mountain-fed streams wind through 2.24± wooded acres framed by vineyards, orchards, and countryside of Greenwood and Afton in Albemarle County. This private, elevated building site has potential for mountain views, set among the vines and pastures of Virginia's Monticello wine trail. Best of all, the toughest question is already answered: yes, it perks. Soils tested, septic engineered, site mapped and ready to build. Soils were evaluated and approved by Afton Soil Consulting: deep, well-drained loam, no seasonal water table, a strong 45 min/inch perc rate. Septic is fully engineered for a 4-bedroom home, with four 100-ft trenches, 100% reserve drainfield area, conventional system approved at 24". Two building sites: an elevated, private rear homesite with the best views, plus a second frontage envelope on Newtown Road, with pumped or gravity-flow options per the engineer's report. A stream runs the rear boundary and a second cuts through the middle, giving a secluded, rare character. Covenant-protected, single-family-only Mountain Hollow offers architectural standards and generous setbacks (75/25/30 ft) protecting privacy and value. Zoned for Western Albemarle's school pyramid: Brownsville Elementary, Henley Middle, Western Albemarle High. Minutes to Crozet, Rockfish Gap, Skyline Drive, and I-64, easy commute to Charlottesville/UVA, within the Greenwood-Afton Historic District. Most buyers spend months and thousands finding out if a lot will perk; here, that's done. All that's left is your vision — bid with confidence on this build-ready parcel. Next door to 447 Newtown Rd, Greenwood, VA 22943.

Rural Areas District
This district hereafter referred to as RA is hereby created and may hereafter be established by amendment of the zoning map for the following purposes: Preservation of agricultural and forestal lands and activities; Water supply protection; Limited service delivery to the rural areas; and Conservation of natural, scenic, and historic resources. Residential development not related to bona fide agricultural/forestal use shall be encouraged to locate in the urban area, communities and villages as designated in the comprehensive plan where services and utilities are available and where such development will not conflict with the agricultural/forestal or other rural objective. Where development does occur, rural residents should expect to receive a lower level of service delivery than will be provided to residential developments in designated growth areas. In relation to residential development, agricultural/forestal activities shall be regulated only to the extent necessary to protect public health and safety.; In regard to agricultural preservation, this district is intended to preserve the county's active farms and best agricultural and forestal lands by providing lot areas designed to insure the continued availability of such lands for preferential land use tax assessment in order to enhance the economy, and maintain employment and lifestyle opportunities.
