Why this home stands out
Scale and quality meet in a 2018 build that gives you modern systems and finishes inside a community with decades of mature landscaping, a country club, and gated security. At 4,676 square feet, this is a home with room to breathe — four full baths, four bedrooms, and enough square footage to carve out a dedicated home office, a guest suite, and still have space left over for everyday living.
FORDS COLONY and the Williamsburg real estate market
Ford's Colony is one of the most recognized addresses in Williamsburg — a private, gated master-planned community built around golf, green space, and a genuine sense of neighborhood. Streets here feel deliberate: wide, tree-lined, and calm in a way that's hard to manufacture. The community has its own country club, multiple golf courses, tennis, and a social calendar that makes it easy to put down roots quickly. Williamsburg itself wraps around all of this with the kind of livability that keeps people here long after they first arrive — Colonial Williamsburg, the College of William & Mary, and a restaurant scene that punches well above the city's size. If you're comparing Williamsburg homes for sale, the Ford's Colony zip code 23188 carries a reputation that holds its value across market cycles.

Ford's Colony Country Club is also 0.5 miles out, putting fitness, golf, and social amenities essentially at your doorstep.
