170 Alwoodley, Williamsburg, VA 23188

Why this home stands out

What sets 170 Alwoodley apart is the combination of size and location that's genuinely hard to replicate in this price band. Nearly 3,000 square feet of living space, four true bedrooms, and three and a half baths give a household room to breathe — while the address keeps Camp Peary nineteen minutes away and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown under thirty. That's a rare pairing in Williamsburg.

FORDS COLONY and the Williamsburg real estate market

Williamsburg carries a weight that most Virginia cities simply don't. It's a place where colonial-era history lines the same roads as modern breweries, farm-to-table restaurants, and a thriving arts scene — and the 23188 zip code puts you on the western edge of the city, where neighborhoods feel a little quieter without feeling remote. Homes for sale in Williamsburg tend to draw buyers who want substance: real square footage, mature landscaping, and a community identity that goes beyond the subdivision name. The area around Alwoodley reflects that — residential streets with established trees, proximity to country club amenities, and easy access to Route 60 and I-64 for commuters heading toward Richmond or the Peninsula. James City County handles local government here, which means solid infrastructure and a tax structure that consistently attracts long-term homeowners. Whether you're relocating for work, the bases, or simply a better quality of daily life, Williamsburg delivers on the promise.

What's nearby

Daily errands and downtime are both covered close to home. Murdoch's at Ford's Colony is just 0.4 miles away — a proper sit-down restaurant that works equally well for a weeknight dinner or a slow weekend lunch. Ford's Colony Country Club sits at the same distance, offering golf, fitness, and social amenities without a long drive. When you want something quick, Krispy Krunchy Chicken and CHILL STOP are both within 0.7 miles. Families comparing homes for sale in 23188 will appreciate how much is reachable before you even hit a main road — it's the kind of convenience that makes a neighborhood feel genuinely livable.
