Large lots and lakeside homes in Spotsylvania County

East of the lake in Spotsylvania County, South Spotsylvania features large lots of land for single-family homes, giving it a peaceful pastoral feel. Having over an acre of land is easy to come by no matter what your budget is. “There’s a range of housing, some that are inexpensive and some in the millions. It’s a very eclectic area price-wise. You can definitely find what you’re looking for,” Corbin says. Farther from the lake but with plentiful yardage, buy ranch-style houses for around $358,200 or Cape Cods for about $281,500. Closer to the water and secluded by woodlands, you can find more ranch-style homes for around $333,800. For those seeking a lakeside retreat in the woods, a new construction house with its own private dock and views overlooking the water can go for $1.7 million.
