A four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home on West Island Road in Williamsburg, Virginia offers 3,740 square feet of living space built in 1993. Quiet, private, and generously sized, it sits within easy reach of Colonial Williamsburg, the James City County waterfront corridor, and two military installations.
West Island Road is one of those addresses that earns a second look on a map — a low-traffic road that winds through a mature, wooded pocket of James City County where lots run large and neighbors are few. At 3,740 square feet across four bedrooms and four and a half baths, 2262 W Island Rd gives you the kind of breathing room that is genuinely rare this close to the heart of Williamsburg. The 1993 build year puts it in a sweet spot: solid construction with enough vintage character to feel lived-in rather than generic.
GOVERNORS LAND and the Williamsburg real estate market
Williamsburg sits at the crossroads of Virginia's Colonial Triangle — flanked by Jamestown to the southwest and Yorktown to the northeast — and West Island Road occupies one of the more serene corners of that geography. James City County wraps around this stretch, keeping density low and tree cover high. The broader Williamsburg area balances a genuine small-city energy with deep historical identity: the kind of place where a Saturday morning can take you from a farmers market to a 300-year-old colonial streetscape without leaving a five-mile radius. For families comparing Williamsburg homes for sale, the West Island Road corridor is worth understanding on its own terms — it reads more like a private retreat than a subdivision, yet downtown Williamsburg's restaurants, shops, and cultural institutions are a short drive away. James City County's parks and the James River shoreline add an outdoor dimension that keeps daily life interesting year-round.
What's nearby
Park East at Governor's Land is just 0.6 miles away — a well-kept community park that makes an easy walk or bike ride for morning routines or afternoon downtime. The broader Governor's Land area is one of the more established residential enclaves in this part of James City County, and its proximity adds a layer of neighborhood infrastructure — trails, open space, and a settled residential feel — without requiring you to be inside the community itself. Colonial Williamsburg's Historic Area, Merchants Square, and the William & Mary campus are all reachable in under fifteen minutes, putting coffee shops, independent restaurants, and weekend programming well within your orbit.
For different buyers
Base commute and VA loan notes
Camp Peary sits roughly 25 minutes from West Island Road, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is about 30 minutes out — manageable commutes from a home that gives a military household genuine space to spread out. Four bedrooms and four and a half baths handle rotating schedules, guests, and a dedicated home-office setup without anyone feeling squeezed. A VA loan can make a property at this square footage more accessible than many buyers expect.
Room to grow
If your current home has you counting square footage and sharing bathrooms, 2262 W Island Rd resets that math entirely.

Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Jamestown High School and homes for sale zoned for Matoaka Elementary School will find this address sits within that attendance zone.
