THE LAND:

The lot is set back slightly from the road and covered in mature trees and underbrush, giving it a private, wooded feel despite being inside city limits. It sits just off a bend in Katherine Street, with a neighboring home bordering one side and more wooded ground behind.

ACCESS:

Katherine Street is a paved, publicly maintained city street with direct frontage onto this lot, and it connects within a few blocks to Memorial Blvd/Business Route 220, one of Martinsville's main corridors.

ZONING AND USE:

This lot carries the city's C-C Corridor Commercial zoning, which does not permit residential use, and at roughly 6,900 square feet it falls under Martinsville's 15,000 square-foot minimum lot size for C-C Corridor Commercial development. A buyer would need to pursue rezoning or a variance from the city, or combine this parcel with adjoining land, before building anything on it as it sits today.

UTILITIES:

Public water, sewer, and power are available in the area per city records, though we have not independently confirmed connections to this specific parcel.

LOCATION:

The property sits just off Business Route 220 (Memorial Blvd), minutes from downtown Martinsville, Virginia, with easy access to local shopping, services, and the rest of the Martinsville/Henry County area.

IDEAL FOR:

- An investor or buyer looking to hold an affordable in-town parcel long-term

- Someone wanting to combine this lot with an adjoining parcel for a larger buildable tract

- A buyer willing to pursue rezoning or a variance before building
