553 N End Est, North, VA 23128

Why this home stands out

What sets 553 N End Est apart is the combination of genuine Mathews County quiet and practical access to the broader Hampton Roads corridor. At 1,894 square feet across three bedrooms and two and a half baths, the floor plan gives everyone room to breathe without the overhead of a sprawling estate. The 1988 build era means solid construction with enough age to carry real character — and enough room to make it your own.

ALL OTHERS AREA 126 and the North real estate market

North, Virginia sits in Mathews County, a small coastal county tucked between the York River and the Chesapeake Bay on the Middle Peninsula. Life here moves at a different speed than the urban core of Hampton Roads — you're trading traffic and density for open land, water views, and neighbors who actually know your name. The county seat of Mathews is a short drive away, offering local shops, a library, and the kind of small-town courthouse square that feels increasingly rare. Mathews County draws people who want space without total isolation, and 553 N End Est fits that profile well. The zip code 23128 covers a genuinely rural swath of Virginia where the landscape does a lot of the heavy lifting — tidal creeks, pine stands, and farm fields are the backdrop to everyday life here.

What's nearby

Day-to-day errands pull you toward Gloucester Court House and the Route 17 corridor, roughly 20 to 30 minutes north, where you'll find grocery stores, pharmacies, hardware, and a solid lineup of local restaurants. Mathews itself has a handful of beloved local spots for coffee and casual dining. Gwynn's Island, just a short drive from North, is a local landmark worth knowing — a causeway-connected island with a boat ramp, a museum, and waterfront scenery that makes for an easy afternoon out. Yorktown and the Colonial Parkway are also within reasonable reach for weekend exploring.
