212 Boswell Dr, Hampton, VA 23669

Why this home stands out

What sets 212 Boswell Drive apart is the combination of a sub-five-minute commute to Langley AFB and a walkable, amenity-rich block that most Hampton addresses can't match. Four bedrooms and three full baths inside 1,610 square feet means the layout works harder than the numbers suggest — and a 1953 build often means solid construction and lot dimensions that newer infill can't replicate.

FAIRVIEW FARMS and the Hampton real estate market

Boswell Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket of Hampton, Virginia — a city that wraps around the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay and carries more than four centuries of American history in its street grid. The surrounding blocks have the unhurried feel of a mid-century neighborhood: mature trees, modest setbacks, neighbors who wave. Yet you're never far from the action. Downtown Hampton, the Virginia Air and Space Science Center, and the Hampton Coliseum are all within a short drive, and the waterfront at Buckroe Beach is close enough to make a spontaneous afternoon trip feel easy. Hampton homes for sale in this corridor tend to attract buyers who want genuine proximity to Langley without sacrificing neighborhood character — and Boswell Drive delivers exactly that. The city's mix of military heritage, working waterfront, and growing arts scene gives Hampton an identity that's hard to replicate anywhere else in the Hampton Roads region.

Fitness options are unusually dense here: King Street Gym, Five Crow Martial Arts Fitness and Firearms, and Xtreme Muscle Gym are all within 0.5 miles. Ridgway Bark Park at 0.6 miles is a plus if you have a dog, and Waterwalk at Central Park is a mile away for weekend strolls.
