Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 7398 Battery Drive apart is its almost absurd proximity to green space and water. Tyndall's Point Park is literally 0.1 miles away, and Gloucester Point Beach Park is just down the road at 0.3 miles. For a home this size, the outdoor lifestyle it unlocks is genuinely outsized — kayak launches, waterfront walks, and nature reserves are all part of the daily routine here.

ALL OTHERS AREA 120 and the Gloucester real estate market

Gloucester, Virginia is one of those places that rewards the people who find it. Sitting on the York River peninsula in Gloucester County, this community has a distinctly unhurried character — think small-town charm backed by serious natural beauty. The stretch around Battery Drive sits close to the water's edge, where the York River meets the Chesapeake Bay, giving the area a feel that draws comparisons to coastal retreats far to the south. People searching for houses on the beach in outer banks sometimes discover that Gloucester's waterfront neighborhoods offer a quieter, more rooted version of that same coastal lifestyle — without the tourist traffic. The Chesapeake Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve is practically in your backyard, and the broader Gloucester Point area has a tight-knit community feel that's hard to replicate. Gloucester County governs the area, keeping things low-key and locally focused.

What's nearby

Daily life at 7398 Battery Drive is genuinely convenient. Nick's Spaghetti & Steak House is just 0.2 miles away for a sit-down dinner, and Krispy Krunchy Chicken at 0.4 miles handles the quick-bite moments. Domino's Pizza is under a mile out when you want delivery. Dunkin' at 0.5 miles covers your morning coffee run, and Ben & Jerry's at 0.9 miles is a solid end-of-day reward. Amoco at 0.5 miles handles everyday grocery and convenience needs. For outdoor time, Tyndall's Point Park is a 2-minute walk, Gloucester Point Beach Park is 0.3 miles out, and the Chesapeake Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve is just 0.4 miles away.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 7 minutes from your front door, and Camp Peary is about 14 minutes out — making 7398 Battery Drive a genuinely practical home base for active-duty families.
