279 Colonial Trl E, Surry, VA 23883

Why this home stands out

What sets 279 Colonial Trail East apart is the sheer amount of living space packed into a 1968-built home — over 3,200 square feet across three full baths and a half bath, all in a small-town Virginia setting that's genuinely hard to find at this scale. Surry moves at its own pace, and a home this size gives you room to spread out, host, and settle in without feeling like you're stacked on top of neighbors.

About the Surry real estate market

Surry, Virginia is one of those places that doesn't try to be anything other than what it is — a quiet, historic county seat on the south bank of the James River with deep roots and a slower rhythm than the metro areas across the water. The town itself is small, walkable in the truest sense, and surrounded by farmland and woodlands that give it a genuinely rural character without cutting you off from the wider Hampton Roads region. Colonial Trail East runs through the heart of this community, putting 279 Colonial Trail East right in the mix of local daily life. Surry County sits in the broader Hampton Roads, Virginia market, which means you're connected to Newport News, Williamsburg, and beyond via the Surry-Jamestown Ferry or the route down through Smithfield. It's the kind of address that appeals to people who want space, quiet, and a real sense of place — not a subdivision that could be anywhere.
