Why this home stands out
Six bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths across more than 6,200 square feet is a rare combination in the Williamsburg market. Built in 1992, the home carries the solid construction and generous room proportions of that era — wide hallways, substantial living areas, and the kind of square footage that lets multiple generations or a busy household coexist comfortably without anyone feeling crowded.
GOVERNORS LAND and the Williamsburg real estate market
3005 E Whittaker Close Road sits within Williamsburg, Virginia — a city that balances genuine historical depth with a very livable present-day pace. This corner of Williamsburg carries a quiet, established feel; the streets are mature, the lots are generous, and the proximity to Governor's Land gives the area a parklike backdrop that's hard to replicate. Williamsburg itself is one of the most recognizable addresses in the country, but residents know it less as a tourist destination and more as a well-maintained, well-connected community with strong infrastructure, a compact downtown corridor, and easy access to the broader Hampton Roads region. James City County governs this address, which means you're in a jurisdiction known for thoughtful planning and stable residential neighborhoods. Whether you're commuting east toward the Peninsula or heading west toward Richmond, the location threads the needle nicely.
What's nearby
Park East at Governor's Land is essentially at your doorstep — just 0.1 miles away — which means green space, walking paths, and open air are part of your daily routine without any effort. Beyond that immediate amenity, Williamsburg's broader retail and dining corridor along Richmond Road and Monticello Avenue is a short drive, putting grocery stores, pharmacies, coffee shops, and a wide range of restaurants well within reach. The Colonial Williamsburg historic area and William & Mary's campus add cultural texture to the surrounding community, and Interstate 64 access keeps the rest of Hampton Roads connected.
