Why this home stands out
What sets Amanda Court apart is the combination of a true cul-de-sac setting and a layout that puts four bedrooms under one roof without sacrificing common-area space. At 1,802 square feet, the floor plan is efficient without feeling tight. The 1996 build era means solid construction with mature landscaping, and Gloucester's lower-density character means you get breathing room that closer-in Peninsula addresses simply can't match.
About the Gloucester real estate market
Gloucester, Virginia sits on the Middle Peninsula, separated from the historic York County shoreline by the Coleman Bridge and the York River. It's a county that trades urban density for open land, water views, and a pace of life that feels genuinely unhurried. The county seat along Main Street features independent shops, a farmers market, and a courthouse district that dates back centuries — giving Gloucester a sense of place you won't find in a newer suburb. Amanda Court itself is tucked into a residential pocket where cul-de-sac streets are the norm, traffic is light, and neighbors tend to know each other. The broader Gloucester Point area, just minutes south, connects you to the rest of the Hampton Roads region via the Coleman Bridge, putting Williamsburg, Yorktown, and the wider Peninsula within a reasonable drive. For buyers searching for Gloucester VA homes for sale who want space, quiet, and genuine community character without giving up regional access, this address checks the right boxes.

Gloucester's Main Street corridor — a short drive north — adds locally owned dining, hardware, and specialty retail to the mix.

For different buyers
For military families relocating
Camp Peary is roughly 22 minutes from Amanda Court, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown sits about 27 minutes away — both well within a practical daily commute. Gloucester's lower cost basis relative to York County and James City County makes it a smart place to stretch a VA loan, and the cul-de-sac setting is the kind of neighborhood detail that matters when you're raising a family far from extended support networks.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and two and a half baths give a growing family real room to spread out — dedicated space for a home office, a guest room, or a playroom without anyone doubling up. The 1996 build means the bones are solid, and the cul-de-sac location keeps through-traffic out of the picture. Gloucester's community feel and lower density make it a natural step up for families ready to trade a smaller or more congested address for something with more space and more quiet.
