Why this home stands out
What sets 304 Hempstead Road apart is the combination of lot size and square footage that's genuinely hard to find in this part of Williamsburg. At 0.72 acres, the yard gives you room to breathe — space for gardens, gatherings, or just the kind of quiet that comes from not having neighbors on top of you. Add 3,283 square feet of interior and four true bedrooms, and you have a home built for real life, not just a floor plan.
WINDSOR FOREST and the Williamsburg real estate market
Windsor Forest is one of Williamsburg's most enduring residential communities — a mature, tree-lined neighborhood where the lots are generous, the streets feel unhurried, and the neighbors tend to stay for decades. Established in the 1970s, the subdivision carries that classic mid-century suburban character: brick colonials, deep setbacks, and canopy trees that have had fifty years to grow. If you've been browsing houses for sale williamsburg va and wondering where the established neighborhoods actually are, Windsor Forest belongs near the top of your list. The community sits in James City County, which means you're outside city limits but still minutes from the Colonial Williamsburg historic area, the College of William & Mary, and the restaurants and shops along Richmond Road and Monticello Avenue. It's a neighborhood that rewards buyers who want space, maturity, and a genuine sense of place.
