Opening the Fluvanna County GIS map
Go straight to the Fluvanna County webGIS parcel viewer. The county hosts it on a county webGIS parcel viewer, and there's no sign-in.

Bookmark the Platbookmapper page for Fluvanna County too; we update it when the official map moves.
Property lines in Fluvanna County, Virginia
A lot line on the Fluvanna County GIS map near Kents Store is a drawing based on deeds, not a measurement taken on site. Virginia is a metes-and-bounds state. Rural deeds in Fluvanna County describe boundaries with bearings, distances and landmarks rather than a square grid, so parcel lines are often irregular. If a neighbor's fence near Fork Union and the map disagree, neither one is proof. A survey is.
Behind the map: land records in Fluvanna County
Every line on the Fluvanna County map traces back to a recorded deed or plat, and the county's recording office keeps those documents. The office title varies by state (register of deeds, recorder, county clerk or clerk of court), so check the Fluvanna County government website for the right one. If you need a plat for a lot in Palmyra, look for the plat book and page or the subdivision name in the parcel record, then request that document from the recording office.
Who uses the Fluvanna County parcel map
- Someone house hunting in Kents Store can check whether a yard really is as big as the listing implies, and who owns the open lot behind it.
- A small builder looking for spec lots around Palmyra can scan the map for vacant parcels in already-platted subdivisions.
- Bowhunters and waterfowlers around Kents Store use the parcel layer to see which owners control a creek bottom, a woodlot or a field edge.
