Why this home stands out
What sets 4406 Mallard Drive apart is its position in Gloucester County — a quieter, less-trafficked corner of the Hampton Roads region where you get genuine breathing room without surrendering access to the Peninsula's major employers and bases. A single-family layout with three bedrooms and two full baths on a manageable footprint means the space works hard without demanding constant upkeep.
ALL OTHERS AREA 120 and the Gloucester real estate market
Gloucester, Virginia carries a character you don't find everywhere in Hampton Roads. The county seat sits along the York River, and the surrounding landscape is a mix of mature trees, open farmland, and waterfront stretches that give the area a genuinely rural feel — even as Route 17 keeps you connected to Williamsburg, Yorktown, and the broader Peninsula. Mallard Drive fits comfortably into that rhythm. It's the kind of address where neighbors know each other, traffic is light, and the pace of daily life slows down in the best possible way. Gloucester Point, just south, adds a marina, waterfront dining, and easy bridge access across the York River. The county's independent character — its own school system, local government, and small-town commercial strip along Main Street — makes it a distinct choice among Gloucester homes for sale, especially for buyers who want space and community without the density of Virginia Beach or Chesapeake.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are straightforward from 4406 Mallard Drive. A Food Lion anchors grocery runs close to home, and the Gloucester Courthouse area offers local dining, a pharmacy, and small shops within a short drive. Beaverdam Park gives you nearly 700 acres of trails, kayak launches, and open water just up the road — ideal for weekends outdoors. Williamsburg is roughly 30 minutes southwest, adding a full retail corridor, restaurants, and Colonial Williamsburg's cultural draw. Newport News is accessible via the Coleman Bridge, expanding your options considerably.

Camp Peary is eight minutes away, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 14 — that kind of dual-base proximity is genuinely hard to find at this price point on the Peninsula.
