Why this home stands out
What sets 204 Jacobs Run apart is the combination of square footage, lot size, and location that's genuinely hard to find in this pocket of York County. You get five true bedrooms, more than 3,400 square feet of living space, and a 0.43-acre lot — room to breathe, room to grow, and room to entertain — all within six minutes of the gate at Naval Weapons Station Yorktown and a short walk from the waterfront dining and parks that make this corner of Virginia special.
JACOBS SPRINGS and the Yorktown real estate market
Jacobs Springs sits in one of the quieter residential pockets of Yorktown, Virginia — a small but historically rich city perched along the York River at the edge of the Virginia Peninsula. The neighborhood carries a settled, established feel: mature trees, generous lot sizes, and streets where neighbors actually know each other. Yorktown itself punches well above its size. The Colonial National Historical Park, the Yorktown Victory Monument, and the scenic Riverwalk draw visitors from across the country, but for residents, those same spaces are just part of everyday life. If you've been searching for homes for sale on riverside settings with genuine history baked into the backdrop, Yorktown delivers that in a way few Virginia communities can match. York County's jurisdiction means solid public services and a tax structure that tends to be favorable compared to neighboring cities. Whether you're drawn by the waterfront character, the proximity to military installations, or simply the scale and quiet of a well-established neighborhood, Jacobs Springs checks a lot of boxes.
What's nearby
Step outside 204 Jacobs Run and you're remarkably close to a walkable cluster of waterfront spots. Umi Sushi, Carrot Tree Kitchens, and the Riverwalk Restaurant are all within a tenth of a mile — a rare convenience for a neighborhood this size. Ben & Jerry's is just down the road, and if you prefer a proper morning cup, Mobjack Bay Coffee Roasters and Petite Cafe and Aromas 1781 Cafe are both within half a mile. Victory Landing Park is a three-minute walk, Yorktown Park is under a mile, and Gloucester Point Beach Park — with its waterfront access across the Coleman Bridge — is just 0.6 miles away.
