Why this home stands out
Built in 2017, this home skips the renovation math entirely. You get contemporary finishes, an efficient floor plan, and four full bedrooms across 2,150 square feet — all in a part of York County where the commute to two major installations is genuinely short. The half-bath on the main level, the attached garage, and the proximity to a walkable cluster of shops and restaurants make daily life here unusually low-friction.
NELSONS GRANT and the Yorktown real estate market
Yorktown sits in York County on the western shore of the York River, and it carries a distinct sense of place that newer Hampton Roads suburbs often lack. The broader area around Ellery Street is a practical, well-connected pocket of the 23692 zip code — close enough to Route 17 to reach Williamsburg, Newport News, or Hampton without a second thought, yet quiet enough that the neighborhood itself feels removed from the noise. York County is known for its strong civic character, lower population density compared to Virginia Beach or Norfolk, and a genuine mix of established families and military households who chose the area deliberately. Grafton Ponds Natural Area Preserve is less than a mile away, giving the neighborhood a green edge that suburban streets don't always have. Families comparing homes for sale in 23692 will find that this corridor offers a compelling balance: modern housing stock, manageable traffic, and two military installations within a twelve-minute drive.
What's nearby
Step outside and the errands practically handle themselves. Starbucks, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, and McDonald's are all within a tenth of a mile — morning coffee or a quick lunch is never a production. Food Lion is 0.3 miles away for grocery runs, and Transform Fitness Gym is right alongside it at 0.3 miles if you prefer to work out close to home. York County Little League fields are 0.7 miles out, and Grafton Ponds Natural Area Preserve — a genuine natural-area preserve with trails and wetland habitat — sits just under a mile away. For families, that combination of walkable food options, a neighborhood gym, youth sports, and accessible green space is hard to replicate.
For different buyers
Base commute and VA loan notes
Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is ten minutes away, and Joint Base Langley-Eustis is twelve — making 113 Ellery Street one of the more strategically located addresses in the region for dual-installation households. The 2017 construction means fewer maintenance surprises during a tour of duty, and VA loan eligibility makes the financing side straightforward. York County's lower traffic density is a genuine daily-life benefit for service members managing long shift schedules.
Room to grow
Four bedrooms and 2.5 baths across 2,150 square feet gives a growing family real room to spread out — and the 2017 build year means the systems, finishes, and layout reflect how people actually live today. Families weighing homes for sale zoned for York High School will find that Ellery Street places them squarely in that attendance zone. Add York County Little League less than a mile away and Grafton Ponds Natural Area Preserve just beyond that, and the after-school calendar practically writes itself.
