Dansey Roy Tract (NT2602) — Key Land & Tax Summary
The Dansey Roy Tract spans approximately 395 acres within the Dragon Run watershed of Virginia’s Middle Peninsula, representing a substantial, contiguous block of conserved forestland shaped by long-term stewardship and productive use. Protected under a conservation easement held by The Nature Conservancy, the property is permanently maintained as a working forest—preserving its ecological integrity while supporting sustainable timber management. The tract is further defined by its direct relationship to the Dragon Run system, with the Dragon Swamp forming a natural boundary along the southern edge of the property and extending northward along much of its eastern boundary, reinforcing both its ecological significance and landscape continuity.
The tract is defined by its scale and continuity, contributing to one of the largest unfragmented forest systems in the lower Chesapeake Bay region. Its timber base supports ongoing forest management practices, while its position within the Dragon Run and Mattaponi River corridor reinforces both habitat value and long-term environmental significance. As part of this broader conservation landscape, the property benefits from structural protections that prioritize land continuity and ecological function.
Per paragraph 2.1 Subdivision and paragraph 2.2 Building Envelopes, these properties can be managed for limited residential use, designed to minimize impact on the surrounding forest. The tract’s size and internal access also support a range of recreational uses, including hunting and passive land enjoyment, without compromising its primary function as managed timberland.
The Dansey Roy Tract is best understood as a scaled, institutionally aligned landholding—where conservation objectives and biological productivity converge within a protected and increasingly scarce forest system.
