Why this home stands out
At 3,345 square feet, this 2011-built home gives you genuine room to spread out — four bedrooms, three full baths, and the kind of square footage that makes hosting, working from home, and growing into a space feel natural rather than forced. The construction era means you're getting modern mechanicals and open-concept sensibilities without the quirks of an older build, all within easy reach of two military installations.
THE SETTLEMENT AT POWHATAN CREEK and the Williamsburg real estate market
Williamsburg carries a reputation that precedes it — colonial history, world-class tourism, and one of Virginia's most livable quality-of-life profiles — but daily life here is quieter and more grounded than the postcard version suggests. The S Square address puts you in the western reaches of James City County, where newer residential development blends into wooded corridors and the pace genuinely slows down. Neighbors tend to be a mix of military families, Colonial Williamsburg professionals, and long-timers who discovered that Williamsburg offers something most Hampton Roads cities can't quite replicate: a small-city feel with big-city access. Interstate 64 is close enough to make Richmond or the Peninsula a reasonable commute, and the Historic Triangle — Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown — keeps weekend options interesting year-round. It's the kind of address that feels like a retreat even on a Tuesday.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands and downtime are well covered from this address. Powhatan Bar & Grill is just half a mile away for a casual dinner out, and both Five Forks Cafe and China Wok are under a mile when you want variety. Five Forks Cafe doubles as your morning coffee stop, with a Starbucks Coffee Company also within a mile if you need something more familiar. MaxFit 24 Gym at 0.9 miles makes it easy to keep a fitness routine without a long drive. For a slower pace, Greensprings Interpretive Trail is 0.8 miles away — a genuine natural escape that most addresses this convenient to town can't claim.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Camp Peary is 18 minutes away and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is 24 minutes out, making 3630 S Square a practical choice for service members assigned to either installation.

A VA loan is a natural fit here, and the James City County location keeps your options open across multiple duty stations.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and three full baths across 3,345 square feet means everyone gets breathing room — dedicated home office, guest suite, kids' rooms, all of it. Built in 2011, the home skips the renovation surprises that come with older stock and delivers the open layouts that actually match how families use space today. Add Greensprings Interpretive Trail less than a mile away and a half-dozen dining options within walking distance, and the lifestyle math works out well.
