Why this home stands out
At 4,632 square feet, 100 Western Gailes delivers room that most Williamsburg homes in this era simply don't offer. Five bedrooms and three full baths mean everyone gets their own space, while two half baths handle the everyday traffic without a second thought. Built in 2002, the home sits in a sweet spot — solid construction with enough years behind it to feel established, yet modern enough to avoid the headaches of a much older property.
FORDS COLONY and the Williamsburg real estate market
Williamsburg carries a character you won't find just anywhere. It's a city shaped by centuries of history, a world-class university presence, and a surprisingly laid-back day-to-day rhythm that draws people from all over the country. The area around 100 Western Gailes sits within the broader Williamsburg corridor — a stretch of Virginia where mature tree canopy, well-kept streets, and a genuine sense of community come standard. Neighbors here tend to put down roots, and it shows in how the area is maintained. James City County surrounds much of this zip code, which means solid county services and a suburban feel without the congestion of a dense urban core. Whether you're drawn by the history, the proximity to military installations, or simply the quality of life that Williamsburg consistently delivers, this address puts you squarely in one of Hampton Roads' most desirable inland communities.
