At a glance

3 Carmines Court is a four-bedroom, 3.5-bath home in Poquoson's Paradise Point Estat, offering 3,400 square feet of space on a quiet cul-de-sac just eight minutes from Langley AFB — where waterfront-community living meets genuine everyday convenience.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 3 Carmines Court apart is the combination of a true cul-de-sac position, generous square footage for a 1990 build, and a location inside Paradise Point Estat — one of Poquoson's most recognizable waterfront-adjacent communities. With 3,400 square feet spread across four bedrooms and three and a half baths, there's real room to grow here without sacrificing that small-city coastal character Poquoson is known for.

PARADISE POINT ESTAT and the Poquoson real estate market

Paradise Point Estat sits in the heart of Poquoson, a small independent city on the Virginia Peninsula that consistently earns a reputation for tight-knit community feel and low-density living. Surrounded on three sides by water — the Back River, Poquoson River, and Chesapeake Bay — the city has a distinct peninsula identity that draws people who want proximity to Hampton Roads without the density of larger cities. Streets in Paradise Point Estat are quiet and well-established, lined with mature trees and homes from the late-1980s and early-1990s that have aged gracefully. Cul-de-sac lots like Carmines Court are especially sought after here because they keep through traffic minimal and give households a genuine sense of place. Poquoson operates its own city services, maintains its own parks system, and has a strong civic culture — neighbors tend to know each other. For anyone searching for homes in Poquoson, this neighborhood checks the boxes that matter most: space, community character, and a location that keeps daily life manageable.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy from 3 Carmines Court. Surf Rider, a local waterfront restaurant, is just 0.3 miles away — close enough to walk on a nice evening. For a sit-down dinner with a different vibe, 185 is about a mile out. Families with kids will appreciate that Kids Island Park is only 0.6 miles away, and Poquoson Parks & Recreation is within 0.4 miles for organized activities and open green space. If you prefer a quieter outdoor escape, 4 Dove Point Trail offers a scenic natural path less than a mile from the front door. Everything you need for a relaxed, active daily routine is genuinely close.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Joint Base Langley-Eustis is eight minutes away — one of the shortest commutes you'll find in Hampton Roads for Langley-assigned personnel. A VA loan can make a home like this especially accessible, and the four-bedroom layout handles PCS moves with room to spare. Fort Eustis is about 24 minutes west, keeping dual-military households well-positioned on the Peninsula.

For families upgrading

If you've outgrown your current space, 3,400 square feet with four bedrooms and three and a half baths gives every family member room to breathe. The cul-de-sac setting means kids can play outside with minimal traffic concern, and having Poquoson Parks & Recreation and Kids Island Park within walking distance means weekends practically plan themselves.
