Why this home stands out
Built in 2020, this home skips the renovation math entirely — mechanical systems, finishes, and structural components are all recent vintage. At 2,850 square feet across three bedrooms and two and a half baths, there's genuine breathing room here. The half-bath placement keeps daily traffic sensible, and the overall footprint gives you flexibility whether you're working from home, hosting, or simply spreading out after a long day.
ALL OTHERS AREA 112 and the Yorktown real estate market
Yorktown sits at the northeastern tip of the Virginia Peninsula, where the York River meets the Chesapeake Bay and colonial history is literally underfoot. The ALL OTHERS AREA 112 designation covers a stretch of York County that trades dense suburban grid patterns for a more open, semi-rural character — larger lots, quieter streets, and a genuine sense of space between neighbors. Daily errands pull you toward the Route 17 corridor, where groceries, pharmacies, and dining are all within a reasonable drive. The broader Yorktown area draws people who want proximity to Hampton Roads' military and employment hubs without the congestion of Norfolk or Hampton proper. Note: if you're also browsing houses for sale in king william va or comparing Peninsula options, Yorktown's York County location gives you access to similar low-density living with significantly shorter commutes to the region's major bases and employers. The riverfront character of the area — historic, unhurried, and genuinely scenic — is something you feel the moment you arrive.
What's nearby
Duck Blind Sandbar park sits just half a mile from 117 Anchor Lane, making it an easy walk or quick bike ride for waterfront access, fishing, or simply watching the river traffic move through. The York River itself defines much of the lifestyle here — kayaking, paddleboarding, and sunset walks are genuinely part of the routine for residents in this pocket of Yorktown. Colonial National Historical Park and the Yorktown Battlefield are a short drive away, giving the area a depth that newer suburban corridors simply don't have. Route 17 connects you north and south for everyday needs.
