Property Description

Poplar Grove is a landmark residential and mixed-use development opportunity in Amherst County, Virginia. Approximately 1,000 acres combine extensive potential residential and mixed-use development with an established championship golf course designed by Sam Snead and developed with the involvement of Jack Snead and acclaimed golf course architect Ed Carton. The course sits in the Blue Ridge foothills amid Central Virginia wine country, offering natural scenery, outdoor recreation, trails and proximity to vineyards and tasting rooms. The principal investment drivers are existing Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning encompassing the entire property, documented water rights transferable with the sale, and the established golf course. Roughly seven hundred acres offer flexibility for residential communities, luxury estates and golf-oriented neighborhoods, and one hundred and thirteen buildable lots surround the course, eighty-six owned by the seller and the balance privately held. Poplar Grove's setting in Central Virginia wine country offers additional avenues to explore, including a luxury hotel of approximately eighty keys, an on-site retail village with specialty shops, dedicated event spaces for weddings and retreats, a spa /wellness center and a wine tasting room featuring regional vineyards, all illustrative concepts rather than required components. Recreationally, neighboring Sweet Briar College's equestrian facilities enhance lifestyle appeal. Lynchburg Regional Airport is about twenty minutes away for private and commercial aircraft, and Centra Lynchburg General Hospital is less than twenty minutes away, supporting the needs of a future residential community. Poplar Grove brings together scale, zoning, water, infrastructure and an established recreational centerpiece in one offering, with multiple paths an experienced investor can evaluate over time. It is offered outright rather than as a joint venture, without suggesting a single development concept.
