Why this home stands out

Homes built in 1937 carry details that newer construction simply cannot replicate. At 505 Richmond Road, that means proportions, craftsmanship, and a streetscape that feels genuinely rooted in place. The lot sits close to the core of one of America's most visited historic cities — yet it functions as a real, livable home. Three bedrooms, two full baths, a half bath, and 2,196 square feet give you room to spread out without sacrificing that walkable, in-town position.

ALL OTHERS AREA 114 and the Williamsburg real estate market

Richmond Road is one of Williamsburg's main corridors, running from the edge of Colonial Williamsburg straight out toward the broader city. The blocks near 505 are a mix of pre-war and mid-century homes on established lots with mature tree canopies. Streets here feel lived-in and unhurried. Neighbors walk to the historic district, City Square Park, and local restaurants without getting in a car. Anyone browsing homes for sale in 23185 will notice that addresses this close to the colonial core are relatively rare. Williamsburg itself is a small city — about 15,000 residents — anchored by the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, William & Mary, and a growing restaurant and arts scene. Getting around is straightforward: Richmond Road connects directly to Bypass Road and Route 60, putting you on I-64 in under ten minutes. The city has invested in sidewalks and bike lanes along the main corridors, so car-free errands are genuinely practical from this address.

What's nearby

Bistro 515 is three-tenths of a mile away — an easy walk for a weeknight dinner. Golden Corral Buffet & Grill is four-tenths of a mile in the other direction. For coffee, Starbucks Coffee Company and The Bake Shop are both within half a mile. Groceries are equally close: Food Lion sits at 0.5 miles, and a BP is at the same distance for quick stops. City Square Park is four-tenths of a mile away and makes for a natural morning walk. Burgesses Quarters Pavilion and the Colonial Williamsburg one hour parking area are each about six-tenths of a mile out. Orangetheory Fitness is one mile away for a structured workout.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Camp Peary is about 11 minutes from 505 Richmond Road. Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 18 minutes away. VA loan financing is well-established in this zip code, and a home built in 1937 with 2,196 square feet has the bones and space to support a smooth transition. Both bases are accessible via Route 60 without touching the interstate.

For buyers drawn to character

A 1937 build in walkable, historic Williamsburg is a specific thing — and hard to find. The scale is right: 2,196 square feet across three bedrooms and 2.1 baths, close enough to Colonial Williamsburg to walk but set on a real residential street. If you are comparing Williamsburg homes for sale and want a home with genuine age and context, 505 Richmond Road belongs on your list.
