Welcome to the Moonlight Twenty-Nine!  This 29.11-acre parcel is full of character with over 1,800 feet of frontage on Three Creek.  A duck hunters delight, you will find this water moving and wide along the full route of the creek.  The current timber stand is the result of a clear-cut harvest approximately 27 years ago that was allowed to regenerate naturally.  The stand composition holds a ratio of approximately 60/40, hardwood to pine.  The transition of upland to floodplain provides the appeal that all of us gamekeepers have come to appreciate.  The abundant signs of wildlife here give us the warm fuzzies too!

With over 300 feet of road frontage on Moonlight Road and over 100 feet on Quarter Moon Road, a large part of the fun will be setting up your access points to fully accentuate the beautiful landscape waiting in the timber.  Get your custom home plans ready too as soil maps are indicative of well drained soils!

Greensville County, established in 1781 from neighboring Brunswick County, carries a name with a bit of mystery. Many historians believe it honors Sir Richard Grenville, the bold leader of the 1585 Roanoke Island settlement—one of the earliest English colonial ventures in America. Others suggest it was named for Nathanael Greene, a distinguished major general in the Continental Army and one of George Washington’s most trusted and capable officers during the Revolutionary War.
