This 9.77-acre country parcel offers the ideal balance of privacy and accessibility. Tucked away in a quiet setting, the property sits less than a mile from Route 58, ensuring an easy commute to all of Hampton Roads. The parcel was appraised last summer and is listed at that appraised value. For those seeking more land, an additional 16-acre parcel directly behind this property is also available from the same seller (MLS # 10635985), offering an excellent opportunity to expand your acreage or create a family compound.
Holy Neck, located between the Nansemond River and Sleepy Hole Road, is a waterfront and rural Suffolk neighborhood with broad marsh views and winding two-lane roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the bend where Sleepy Hole Road meets Holy Neck Road, where boat trailers, mailboxes, and tree-lined shoulders set a working-waterfront tone. Architecture leans toward detached homes on larger lots, with docks and screened porches oriented to the river breeze. Kayaks and small skiffs share the shoreline with tidal creeks and pine stands. Daily rhythms track the water, with sunrise light over the marsh and quiet evenings broken by passing boats.
