Why this home stands out
What sets 139 Great Glen apart is the combination of scale, setting, and community infrastructure that's genuinely hard to replicate in this price tier. A 0.36-acre lot gives you real breathing room in a neighborhood where lots tend to be tighter. The 2006 construction means you're working with modern framing, systems, and layouts — no guesswork about what's behind the walls — while the Fords Colony address brings gated access, manicured common areas, and a sense of permanence that newer subdivisions are still earning.
FORDS COLONY and the Williamsburg real estate market
Fords Colony is one of those neighborhoods that earns its reputation year after year. Tucked into the western edge of James City County, this gated, master-planned community spans hundreds of acres and wraps around a championship golf course, giving the whole place a parklike feel that's rare in Hampton Roads. Tree-lined streets, deed restrictions that keep the aesthetics consistent, and an active homeowners association mean the neighborhood looks as good a decade in as it did the day it opened. If you've been searching through houses for sale williamsburg va and wondering where the long-term value lives, Fords Colony consistently shows up on that short list. Williamsburg itself adds another layer — a small city with a surprisingly complete set of amenities, a strong tourism economy that keeps local businesses thriving, and Colonial Williamsburg's historic district just a short drive away. James City County schools, county-maintained roads, and proximity to I-64 round out the practical side of the address.
What's nearby
Daily errands barely require leaving the neighborhood corridor. Zia's Sunrise is just 0.4 miles out for grocery runs, and if dinner plans fall through, Tuscany Ristorante and Golden China Chinese and Japanese Restaurant are both within the same half-mile radius. Krispy Krunchy Chicken handles the quick-bite moments. A 7-Eleven at 0.5 miles covers coffee and convenience. For fitness, Smart Bodies Pilates LLC and the James City County Recreation Center are both under a mile away — the Rec Center in particular is a full-service facility worth knowing. Tutter's Mill Pond at 0.6 miles offers a quiet spot for a walk or some time outside, and Windsor Forest Recreational Park is just 0.8 miles for members.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Camp Peary is roughly 15 minutes from 139 Great Glen, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown sits about 23 minutes out — manageable commutes that keep you well inside the Hampton Roads metro without the congestion of living closer to the water. Fords Colony's gated environment and stable community character tend to resonate with military families who want predictability in their off-base life. VA loan eligibility makes a home at this square footage and lot size even more accessible.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and 2,800 square feet on a 0.36-acre lot inside a gated community — this is the kind of address families move into and stop moving. The lot gives kids actual outdoor space, the neighborhood's deed restrictions mean your neighbors are invested in the same standards you are, and Fords Colony's community amenities add value that doesn't show up in the square footage count. If Williamsburg va real estate has been on your radar for an upgrade move, this address checks the structural boxes.
