Why this home stands out
New construction on a full acre is a rare combination anywhere in Hampton Roads, and in Poquoson it's especially uncommon. At 50 Forrest Road you get 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully laid-out living space, five bedrooms, three full baths, and a lot large enough to add a garage, a garden, or simply breathe. The 2026 build year means everything — systems, finishes, structure — is fresh from day one.
ALL OTHERS AREA 111 and the Poquoson real estate market
Poquoson is one of those small independent cities that Hampton Roads residents quietly love. Bordered by the Back River and the Chesapeake Bay, it carries a genuine waterfront character without the congestion of larger coastal neighborhoods. The community is tight-knit, the streets are quiet, and the city manages its own services — which shows in the upkeep. Forrest Road sits within the broader area locals call ALL OTHERS AREA 111, a spread-out section of the city where acre-plus lots are the norm and neighbors aren't stacked on top of each other. If you've been browsing Poquoson homes for sale and wondering whether the lifestyle matches the reputation, this part of the city is a strong yes. The zip code 23662 covers the whole city, and homes here tend to attract buyers who want space, water access nearby, and a short commute to the peninsula's major employers.
