Why this home stands out
What sets 12010 Southport Landing Drive apart is the combination of generous square footage — 3,528 finished feet — and a layout that gives every member of the household real breathing room. Four bedrooms, three full baths, and a half bath mean mornings run smoothly even in a full house. The 2002 build year puts the home in a sweet spot: solid construction with enough age to carry genuine character, yet modern enough that major systems aren't a constant concern.
GATLING POINTE and the Smithfield real estate market
Southport Landing sits in Smithfield, Virginia — a small city in Isle of Wight County that punches well above its size when it comes to livability. Smithfield is best known as the birthplace of the world-famous Smithfield ham, but day-to-day life here is defined by tree-lined streets, a genuinely walkable historic downtown, and a pace that feels deliberately unhurried. The Southport Landing DR address in Smithfield, Virginia 23430 places you in a residential pocket where neighbors tend to stay for years, and the streets feel safe enough that kids actually play outside. Isle of Wight County's lower density means you get more lot for your footprint, and the county's tax base has historically kept services solid without the congestion of larger Hampton Roads cities. Whether you're drawn here by the waterfront character of the broader Pagan River corridor or simply by the appeal of a community that still feels like a community, Smithfield delivers.
What's nearby
Central Park is just 0.6 miles away — an easy walk or a two-minute drive when you need green space, a morning run, or somewhere to take the dog. Smithfield's historic downtown, with its independent restaurants, boutique shops, and seasonal farmers market, is a short drive from Southport Landing Drive. The Isle of Wight County area also puts you within reasonable reach of grocery options, pharmacies, and everyday conveniences along Routes 10 and 258. For bigger retail runs, Newport News is roughly 25 minutes east via the James River Bridge.

For families upgrading
If your current home feels like it's shrinking, 3,528 square feet has a way of solving that problem.
