Why this home stands out

Built in 2010, this 2,034-square-foot home offers a layout that balances open living spaces with three private bedrooms and two and a half baths — all on a quarter-acre lot in Seawells Trace.

SEAWELLS TRACE and the Hayes real estate market

Seawells Trace is a residential community tucked into Hayes, Virginia — a waterfront community in Gloucester County that hugs the western bank of the York River. Hayes has a distinctly unhurried character: tree-lined streets, water views around many corners, and neighbors who tend to know each other by name. The peninsula setting means you're genuinely away from the congestion of the urban core, yet Route 17 keeps everything within reach. Gloucester County governs this area, which means a different tax jurisdiction than the cities across the water — something worth factoring into your overall picture. The 6823 Watch Harbour Circle Hayes VA 23072 address places you in a section of the peninsula that feels residential and grounded, with Machicomoco State Park just a mile away adding a natural green buffer to everyday life. It's the kind of place where morning walks feel like a reward.
