VaHome team overview

Our read on this home

At a glance

A 1977-built, 2,825-square-foot single-family home on Magruder Road in Smithfield, Virginia — three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and the kind of established character that newer construction rarely delivers. Smithfield's small-town pace and Isle of Wight County's low-density feel are right outside the door.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Homes at this square footage in Smithfield's established corridors are genuinely hard to come by. At 2,825 square feet, 1502 Magruder Road gives you room to spread out — a half bath for guests, two full baths for the household, and a footprint that can flex around a home office, a playroom, or whatever your life actually needs. The 1977 build year means solid construction from an era that prioritized interior volume over lot coverage.

GRIMESLAND and the Smithfield real estate market

Smithfield, Virginia is one of Hampton Roads' best-kept secrets — a genuine small town with a walkable historic downtown, locally owned restaurants, and a pace that stands in deliberate contrast to the busier corridors across the James River. Isle of Wight County governs this address, which means lower density, more green space between neighbors, and a community that still feels like a place rather than a suburb. Magruder Road sits within an established residential area where mature trees line the streets and the lots have the breathing room that newer planned communities often sacrifice. The broader Smithfield area draws people who want proximity to Hampton Roads employment — including Joint Base Langley-Eustis and NSA Northwest Annex — without trading away a quieter quality of life. Whether you're drawn by the farmers markets, the Smithfield VA homes for sale market's relative affordability compared to Virginia Beach or Norfolk, or simply the idea of knowing your neighbors, this address plants you squarely in a community worth putting down roots in.

What's nearby

Daily errands are straightforward from Magruder Road. The Smithfield historic district — with its boutique shops, local diners, and the famous Smithfield ham purveyors — is just a short drive down Main Street. Grocery runs are easy with Food Lion and other staples close by. Smithfield Station and the Smithfield Brewing Company give you waterfront dining options on the Pagan River without a long commute. Ragged Island Wildlife Management Area is nearby for hiking and birding. The Isle of Wight County Museum and Carrollton Nike Park round out the recreational and cultural options within a comfortable radius of the address.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Joint Base Langley-Eustis is roughly 26 minutes from 1502 Magruder Road, and NSA Northwest Annex sits about 27 minutes out — manageable commutes that keep you well clear of the traffic-heavy corridors closer to base. Smithfield's stable, low-density environment is a natural fit for military households, and the VA loan program pairs well with Isle of Wight County's property values. Three bedrooms and 2,825 square feet give a family room to land and settle in.

For families upgrading

If your current home feels like it's shrinking around you, 2,825 square feet across three bedrooms and two and a half baths is a meaningful step up. The 1977 construction gives you a home with real bones — generous room proportions, a layout that wasn't squeezed to maximize unit count, and a Smithfield address that keeps the household out of the congestion of larger Hampton Roads cities. Isle of Wight County's community character tends to hold its appeal across the long haul.
