Why this home stands out
At 3,172 square feet with five bedrooms and three full baths, 28 Bray Wood Road gives you room to spread out in a way that most Williamsburg homes at this size simply don't. Built in 1978, the home carries the solid construction hallmarks of that era — generous room proportions, a real footprint, and a lot with character — all within a short drive of two major military installations and the historic heart of the city.
KINGSMILL and the Williamsburg real estate market
Williamsburg sits at the intersection of colonial American history and modern Hampton Roads living, and 28 Bray Wood Road puts you right in the thick of it. The surrounding area along the Route 60 corridor feels established and leafy, with mature trees lining residential streets and a mix of long-time homeowners and families who've discovered what locals already know: this part of the city punches above its weight for everyday convenience. You're close to Busch Gardens, the Colonial Williamsburg historic district, and the College of William & Mary, yet the neighborhood itself stays quiet and residential. James City County jurisdiction means you're just outside the city limits proper, which carries its own advantages for services and taxes. The Kingsmill community anchors the eastern edge of this pocket, lending a sense of established prestige to the broader area. Whether you're commuting toward the Peninsula or heading into the historic triangle for dinner, 28 Bray Wood Road in Williamsburg, Virginia 23185 keeps you well-positioned for all of it.
What's nearby
Walk half a mile and you're choosing between Pitchers Taphouse for a casual evening out, La Terraza Mexican Grill for weeknight tacos, or the DoubleTree by Hilton Williamsburg's restaurant for something a little more polished. Coffee is just as easy — Made Market, Starbucks, and The Mill are all within seven-tenths of a mile, so your morning routine has options. Body Balance Yoga & Fitness Studio and Wareham's Pond Recreation Center cover your fitness needs nearby. For outdoor time, Private Resort Kingsmill Park and Kingsmill Recreational Soccer Park are both under a mile away, making weekend afternoons easy to fill.
