Why this home stands out
Half-acre lots this close to Yorktown's colonial waterfront don't come around often. Jacobs Springs gives you room to breathe — a generous 0.43-acre parcel, five true bedrooms, and over 3,400 square feet of living space — while keeping you within a short walk of riverside restaurants and parks that most suburban addresses can only dream about.
JACOBS SPRINGS and the Yorktown real estate market
Jacobs Springs sits in one of the most quietly coveted pockets of Yorktown, Virginia — a small, established residential community where mature trees line the streets and the York River is practically a neighbor. Yorktown itself carries a rare combination of living history and everyday convenience. The colonial battlefield, the waterfront boardwalk, and a genuinely walkable restaurant row are all part of the backdrop here. You're in York County, which means solid county services and a suburban feel that never tips into sprawl. Homes for sale in Yorktown tend to attract buyers who want character and access in equal measure, and 204 Jacobs Run delivers both. The broader Peninsula puts Newport News, Williamsburg, and Hampton within easy reach, while the Coleman Bridge keeps Gloucester County just across the river. It's a location that rewards people who value place — not just square footage.
What's nearby
Step outside and the waterfront is essentially at your door. Carrot Tree Kitchens, Riverwalk Restaurant, and Umi Sushi are all within 0.1 miles — a genuine walkable dining scene that's unusual for homes for sale in Yorktown. Morning coffee is easy too, with Mobjack Bay Coffee Roasters and Petite Cafe just 0.4 miles away and Aromas 1781 Cafe at 0.5 miles. For fresh air and recreation, Victory Landing Park is 0.4 miles out, Gloucester Point Beach Park is 0.6 miles, and Yorktown Park is equally close. Daily life here has a rhythm most addresses can't match.
