Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · LPT Realty

At a glance

117 Ainsdale in Williamsburg, Virginia is a 3-bedroom, 2.1-bath home spanning 3,224 square feet, built in 2001 in a well-established community with quick access to two military installations and the timeless character of the greater Williamsburg area.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

With over 3,200 square feet of living space on a single address in Williamsburg, 117 Ainsdale offers room to spread out in ways that smaller homes in the area simply can't match. Built in 2001, the home sits within reach of Ford's Colony's amenities, two military bases, and the kind of mature, tree-lined surroundings that take decades to develop. That combination of scale, setting, and access is genuinely hard to replicate.

FORDS COLONY and the Williamsburg real estate market

117 Ainsdale sits in one of Williamsburg's most quietly desirable pockets, close to the Ford's Colony corridor — a part of James City County known for its established landscaping, winding roads, and a neighborhood feel that has mellowed gracefully since the early 2000s. Williamsburg itself carries a reputation that goes far beyond its colonial history. It's a mid-sized city with a full-service infrastructure: regional medical centers, a strong dining scene, and easy interstate access via I-64. The pace here is deliberate without being sleepy. You're close enough to Newport News and Richmond to make day trips easy, yet daily life in Williamsburg rarely demands you leave. The city draws a mix of longtime residents, military families, and professionals who've discovered that colonial charm and modern convenience coexist here better than almost anywhere in Hampton Roads.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy from 117 Ainsdale. Murdoch's at Ford's Colony is less than a mile away — a solid neighborhood restaurant worth knowing on a weeknight. Ford's Colony Country Club sits at roughly the same distance and offers fitness facilities for members. When you want to get outside, Tutter's Mill Pond is just 0.7 miles away, a quiet spot for a walk or a moment to decompress. Windsor Forest Recreational Park, a members-only park, is only 0.6 miles out. It's a compact radius that covers a lot of the bases for everyday living.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Camp Peary is about 17 minutes away, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 24 minutes out — both manageable commutes that keep your options open across duty stations. Williamsburg's stability and strong community infrastructure make it a place many military families return to, and a VA loan can make the math work well for eligible buyers.

For families upgrading

If you've outgrown your current space, 3,224 square feet gives you room to actually live — separate spaces for work, guests, and everyday life without everyone on top of each other. The neighborhood's maturity means established trees, quieter streets, and neighbors who've been here long enough to know each other's names. That's the kind of environment that's hard to manufacture in a brand-new development.
