49.26 acres in Caroline County, ideally suited for residential, agricultural, or investment use, located just 10 minutes from the Ruther Glen exit on I-95. Approximately 5 acres are currently in agricultural rotation, with the balance consisting of mixed timber (white oak, red oak, poplar, pine) that is at least 41 years old based on historical aerial imagery. A culvert has already been installed to access the property from Jericho Road and with 425 feet of road frontage, multiple options for driveway access or potential subdivision are possible (buyer to verify with Caroline County & depending on soil tests). The land is relatively flat along Jericho road and elevates as you approach the wood line. The open field would be an ideal homesite, set far enough off the road to avoid jeopardizing a large backyard. The open acreage can be utilized for pasture, food plots, a garden, or to generate agricultural income. The large wooded portion in the back has established walking trails, two creeks (one appears to be seasonal) that provide wildlife habitat or income from a timber harvest. A tributary of Hawkins Creek runs through the northwest corner before meandering off the property. Build in the front and keep the woods for riding horses/UTVs, hunting, or to enjoy nature. Conveniently located 30 miles from Fredericksburg and 37 miles from Richmond, the property provides rural living with easy access to amenities, employment centers, and I-95. Have a boat? Lake Anna is just 20 miles to the west, offering plenty of opportunities for water sports on the 13,000-acre reservoir - one of the largest freshwater reservoirs in Virginia. Lake Anna State Park has 15-miles of hiking trails, picnic areas, playgrounds, & a swimming area for you to enjoy. Whether you’re looking to build a custom home, invest in land, or create a family compound, this property has options! The survey is uploaded to the MLS & no soil work has been done by the seller. Please park in the designated parking area & call the listing agent before showing!

Opportunity knocks at 21 Lake Caroline Drive, a 2.27-acre parcel brimming with possibility in the heart of Ruther Glen. Boasting an impressive 595 feet of road frontage along US Route 1, this rare offering pairs exceptional visibility with a picturesque view of Lake Caroline—a combination that's hard to come by.

Soil testing conducted in 2006 supports a three-bedroom perk at the site of the current building, and there may be an existing drainfield in place. Note that the water company holds a small right-of-way containing an abandoned well that formerly served the shop. Location amplifies the appeal. Beaver Park sits just moments away, offering nearby green space and recreation, while everyday conveniences—including a grocery stop along Ladysmith Road—are within easy reach.
