320 Bay Tree Beach Rd, Seaford, VA 23696

Why this home stands out

What sets 320 Bay Tree Beach Road apart is the combination of genuine square footage — 2,541 feet across five bedrooms — and a location that splits the difference between two major installations. Built in 1972, the home carries the solid construction of that era while sitting on a street where the pace slows down the moment you turn off the main road. The half-bath adds everyday practicality that newer builds sometimes skip, and the lot gives you breathing room you won't find in tighter subdivisions.

ALL OTHERS AREA 112 and the Seaford real estate market

Seaford sits in the western corner of York County, tucked between the York River and the broader Hampton Roads metro without feeling swallowed by it. It's the kind of community where neighbors actually know each other, streets stay quiet on weekday mornings, and you're still close enough to Williamsburg, Newport News, and the Peninsula's employment corridors to make daily life genuinely convenient. The 23696 zip code covers a relatively small slice of the county, which keeps density low and gives the area a semi-rural feel that's increasingly hard to find this close to major bases. York County itself is known for well-maintained roads, responsive county services, and a strong sense of civic identity. Families comparing homes for sale in 23696 often remark on how different the atmosphere feels from the busier zip codes just a few miles east — there's a settledness here that takes a little longer to find elsewhere on the Peninsula.

What's nearby

Duck Blind Sandbar, less than a mile away, is the neighborhood's natural gathering point — a waterfront park where the York River does exactly what you'd hope a river would do on a warm afternoon. Beyond that, the Seaford corridor connects quickly to Route 17 and the George Washington Memorial Parkway, putting grocery runs, pharmacies, and the full retail stretch of Yorktown and Grafton within a short drive. The Colonial Williamsburg historic area is roughly 20 minutes northwest, and the Newport News shipyard district is a comparable drive to the south — meaning weekend options run from history walks to waterfront dining without much effort.
