Why this home stands out
New construction in an established, amenity-rich gated community is a rare combination. Ford's Colony has mature trees, manicured streetscapes, and a country club atmosphere that most new-build subdivisions spend decades trying to grow into. At 1220 Treviso Bay, you get the best of both: a home that has never been lived in and a neighborhood that already knows exactly what it is.
FORDS COLONY and the Williamsburg real estate market
Ford's Colony is one of Williamsburg's most recognized gated communities — a planned neighborhood where golf fairways, wooded buffers, and quiet residential streets share the same address. The community spans several thousand acres in James City County, and the internal road network keeps through-traffic out almost entirely. Residents here tend to stay for the long haul, which gives the neighborhood a settled, neighborly feel that's hard to manufacture. Williamsburg itself sits at the crossroads of history and everyday convenience. Colonial Williamsburg, William & Mary, and the wider Historic Triangle draw visitors from around the world, but for people who actually live here, the draw is simpler: good roads, reasonable commutes, and a city that takes quality of life seriously. For anyone comparing options across the peninsula, the kings mill williamsburg corridor and Ford's Colony consistently come up as the two addresses where long-term value and lifestyle align most naturally. James City County's lower tax rate relative to neighboring jurisdictions is a quiet but meaningful advantage that residents notice over time.
What's nearby
Step outside and Murdoch's at Ford's Colony is just 0.1 miles away — a full-service restaurant and bar that doubles as the social hub for the community. Ford's Colony Country Club is 0.2 miles out, putting fitness facilities, golf, tennis, and pool access practically at your doorstep. When you need a quick bite beyond the neighborhood, Krispy Krunchy Chicken and CHILL STOP are both about a mile away. Grocery runs, pharmacies, and the broader retail corridor along Richmond Road are a short drive, keeping daily errands well within reach without ever feeling like a chore.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Camp Peary is about 18 minutes from 1220 Treviso Bay, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 26 minutes out — both very workable for daily commutes. A VA loan can make a new-construction purchase like this more accessible, and BAH rates for the Williamsburg area have historically aligned well with the peninsula's housing market. Ford's Colony's gated layout and stable community character are a natural fit for families who value security and consistency during a tour of duty.
For buyers drawn to character

The mature canopy, the club amenities, the gated entry, and the community's long-standing identity give 1220 Treviso Bay a context that a standalone new build on an open lot simply can't replicate. You're buying into a neighborhood with a track record, not just a house.
