Why this home stands out
What sets 101 Old Course Loop apart is its address on the Eastern Shore of Virginia — Cape Charles is one of the most unhurried, character-rich small towns in the entire Hampton Roads region. A 2005 build means you get modern bones without the guesswork of an older home, and at 1,794 square feet across three bedrooms and two baths, the layout gives you real everyday livability without excess upkeep.
