If the locality's Zoning Board permits it. You have to talk to the zoning board (or zoning commission) where the property is located.
It depends on the setback requirements in the property's zoning. If it's zoned, the zoning regulations will state how close any part of the building can be to the property.
In Alexandria, Virginia, the distance you can build to your neighbor's house depends on the zoning regulations for your property. Typically, residential zoning requires a minimum side yard setback of 5 to 10 feet, but this can vary based on the specific zoning district and property type. It's important to consult the city's zoning ordinances or contact the Alexandria Department of Planning and Zoning for precise requirements related to your property.
R-3 zoning typically allows for medium-density residential development, such as townhouses or apartment buildings. It may also permit some commercial or mixed-use developments in certain areas. Specific regulations and requirements will vary depending on the local zoning codes.
You have to follow county zoning laws and each zoning may very. Call your town hall.

ZONING
It depends on the zoning of the area your business is in.
I'm going to give the economic tilt of this, then recategorize it into property law where they can probably give you some more practical answers. Basically in economics, if property has any limitations attached to it (zoning usually limits what the property can be used for), the property has a lower value. There are a LOT of exceptions to this (imagine a factory in the middle of a farm or subdivision), but that is the general rule. Zoning will limit what the owner can do with their property. For instance, a residential zoned property can only have housing built on it. That means that the owner could not build a place of business if they wanted to.
That would be determined by the zoning laws and building codes in the community in which the property is located.
This depends on the zoning laws in your jurisdiction. If your property is zoned residential, you probably can, but I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice.
That issue would be governed locally. You need to inquire at the local building and zoning departments.
