Why this home stands out
Nearly a full acre of land inside a quiet Isle of Wight County neighborhood is genuinely hard to find this close to Hampton Roads' major bases. The 2010 build means you get modern construction standards — think tighter energy envelopes, open floor-plan sensibilities, and updated mechanicals — without the compromise of a postage-stamp yard. Four bedrooms and three and a half baths give every household member room to breathe.
DAYS POINT and the Smithfield real estate market
Days Point is one of Smithfield's more tucked-away residential pockets, sitting along the James River corridor in Isle of Wight County. Streets here are quiet and lots run generous — the kind of place where neighbors actually know each other's names. Smithfield itself carries a distinct small-town personality that larger Hampton Roads cities can't quite replicate: a walkable historic district, local restaurants along Main Street, and a pace of life that feels genuinely unhurried. Buyers who spend weekends scrolling obx houses for sale in search of that same elbow-room-and-water-access energy often discover that Smithfield scratches the same itch at a fraction of the drive. The town sits in Isle of Wight County, which handles its own zoning and services independently from Virginia Beach or Norfolk — something many residents cite as a point of pride. Getting around is straightforward: Route 10 connects you westward toward Suffolk and eastward toward the James River Bridge and Newport News in under 30 minutes.
What's nearby
Step outside and Fort Boykin Historic Park is practically at your doorstep — just 0.8 miles away, this bluff-top park overlooks the James River and offers walking trails, picnic areas, and some of the best sunset views in Isle of Wight County. It's the kind of neighborhood amenity you'll use on a random Tuesday, not just on special occasions. Smithfield's Main Street corridor is a short drive for groceries, dining, and everyday errands. Newport News and Suffolk are both reachable in roughly 25 to 30 minutes, expanding your options for big-box retail, medical facilities, and entertainment considerably.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Joint Base Langley-Eustis (Fort Eustis) is an 18-minute drive from 42 Gurwen Drive, and Joint Base Langley-Eustis (Langley AFB) is about 29 minutes out — both well within a practical daily commute. VA loan eligibility can make a nearly-one-acre property like this especially compelling, and BAH rates for the Hampton Roads area generally align well with Isle of Wight County price points. A four-bedroom layout handles PCS moves with a growing family comfortably.
For families upgrading
If your current home is starting to feel like the walls are closing in, 42 Gurwen Drive offers a real reset. Four bedrooms, three and a half baths, and nearly an acre of outdoor space means kids have room to actually run around — and you have room for a garden, a fire pit, or just open air. The 2010 build keeps maintenance demands reasonable while the Days Point location keeps life quiet without feeling isolated.
