Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 11688 River Crest Drive apart is the combination of substantial square footage — nearly 2,900 square feet across three full baths and a powder room — and a Gloucester County address that trades suburban density for breathing room. Homes of this size and vintage in this part of the Middle Peninsula tend to sit on generous lots with mature landscaping, giving you privacy that's genuinely hard to find closer to the water's urban edges.

ALL OTHERS AREA 121 and the Gloucester real estate market

Gloucester, Virginia sits on the Middle Peninsula, bordered by the York River to the south and the Piankatank River to the north, with the Chesapeake Bay just beyond. It's a county that moves at its own pace — one where you're as likely to pass a farm stand as a coffee shop on your morning drive. River Crest Drive carries that same character: a residential street where neighbors tend to know each other and the tree canopy does most of the decorating. Gloucester County is an independent jurisdiction with its own services and a small-town courthouse district that doubles as a genuine community gathering point. The county seat of Gloucester Court House offers local dining, a farmers market, and a stretch of historic architecture that gives the area real identity. For anyone searching for Gloucester VA real estate, this address delivers the space and serenity the county is known for, while remaining practical for commuters heading toward Williamsburg, Newport News, or the York River corridor.

What's nearby

Daily errands are straightforward from River Crest Drive. The Gloucester Court House area — roughly the commercial and civic heart of the county — is a short drive away and covers groceries, pharmacy stops, hardware, and sit-down dining. Wal-Mart Supercenter on George Washington Memorial Highway handles big shopping runs. For a proper coffee stop, Cafe Mocha and several local spots near the courthouse square give you options. Beaverdam Park offers trails, a lake, and kayak access for weekends. The York River State Park, accessible via the Coleman Bridge, adds another layer of outdoor recreation just across the water.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 42 minutes from River Crest Drive, and Camp Peary sits about 36 minutes out — both reachable via Route 17 and the Coleman Bridge without touching interstate traffic. If you're using a VA loan, Gloucester County's price points relative to square footage tend to stretch that benefit further than comparable homes closer to base. Three full baths means no morning bottlenecks when the whole household is getting ready.

For families upgrading

At 2,845 square feet with three bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, 11688 River Crest Drive gives a growing household genuine room to spread out. Each member of the family can have their own bath access, and there's still a dedicated powder room for guests. Gloucester County's lower-density setting means more yard, less noise, and the kind of neighborhood where kids actually play outside — a meaningful upgrade from tighter suburban footprints.
