Why this home stands out
What sets 440 Evergreen Way apart is the combination of generous square footage — nearly 2,500 square feet across four bedrooms — and a location that punches well above its zip code. You're within a half-mile of a full grocery run, three gyms, and a handful of quick-service restaurants, yet you're still living in Smithfield, a town that trades suburban sprawl for genuine small-town character. That balance is harder to find than it looks.
ASPEN WOODS and the Smithfield real estate market
Smithfield, Virginia sits in Isle of Wight County along the western bank of the Pagan River, just south of the James River. It's one of Hampton Roads' quieter corners — a town that still has a real downtown, a working waterfront, and a pace that doesn't feel manufactured. The Evergreen Way address puts you on the western side of town, in a residential pocket where single-family homes line quiet streets and neighbors tend to actually know each other. Isle of Wight County governs the area, which means a different tax jurisdiction than the city of Chesapeake or Virginia Beach — something worth factoring into your long-term picture. Smithfield homes for sale in this corridor tend to draw buyers who want proximity to Hampton Roads without the density of Norfolk or Suffolk. You're close enough to reach Newport News or the Peninsula in under 30 minutes, but far enough away to come home to something quieter at the end of the day. It's a genuinely livable town, and Evergreen Way sits comfortably at its heart.

Coffee before work is easy too, with a Starbucks at 0.5 miles and a McDonald's even closer.

For different buyers
For military families relocating
NSA Northwest Annex is about 25 minutes from 440 Evergreen Way, and Joint Base Langley-Eustis (Fort Eustis) is just a minute farther at 26. That kind of dual-base access is genuinely useful when assignments shift or a spouse works on a different installation. A VA loan can make this four-bedroom footprint even more accessible — and Smithfield's lower-density lifestyle is a real draw for families who've done their time in busier duty-station cities.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and nearly 2,500 square feet give a growing family real room to spread out — dedicated space for kids, a home office, or a guest room without anyone feeling squeezed. The neighborhood is quiet, Wellington Park is less than a mile away, and everyday errands are handled within half a mile of the front door. If you've outgrown your current place and want more space without leaving the Hampton Roads area, Evergreen Way is worth a serious look.
