VaHome team overview

Our read on this home

At a glance

8003 Sunset Drive #1E is a 1,322-square-foot, two-bedroom condo in Hayes, Virginia's Dockside community — a waterfront-flavored neighborhood in Gloucester County where the pace slows down and the Chesapeake Bay region wraps right around you.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Built in 1986 and tucked inside the Dockside community, Unit 1E offers a ground-floor entry point into one of the most relaxed corners of the Virginia Peninsula. With 1,322 square feet across two bedrooms and a full bath plus a half bath, the layout gives you real room to breathe — without the yard work demands of a single-family home. Gloucester County's lower cost of living and quick access to Naval Weapons Station Yorktown make this address quietly practical.

DOCKSIDE and the Hayes real estate market

Dockside sits in Hayes, a small waterfront community in Gloucester County on the western shore of the York River. This is the quieter side of the Virginia Peninsula — no gridlock, no urban sprawl, just marshland, marinas, and neighborhoods where people actually know their neighbors. Hayes isn't a town with a formal downtown, but that's part of the appeal: life here moves at a pace you choose. The Dockside community itself carries a coastal residential character that fits right into the broader Hayes lifestyle. Gloucester County governs the area, which means lower density and a different rhythm than you'll find across the Coleman Bridge in York County or further south toward Newport News. If you're searching for Hayes Virginia condos for sale, this community consistently draws buyers who want proximity to the water and the bases without sacrificing elbow room. The drive into Yorktown, Williamsburg, or even Hampton Roads is manageable, and the natural surroundings — creeks, inlets, and open sky — are part of everyday life here.

What's nearby

Daily errands and casual meals are easy to handle close to home. YROC Coastal Bar & Grill is just 0.6 miles away and fits the waterfront vibe of the area perfectly. Eggheads Diner and Scoot's BBQ are both within 0.7 miles when you want a relaxed breakfast or a plate of smoked meat without driving far. A 7-Eleven sits 0.8 miles out for a quick coffee run or late-night essentials. If staying active is a priority, Alterra Training LLC is 0.7 miles away and gives you a local gym option without a long commute. The Coleman Bridge connects Hayes to Yorktown's broader retail and dining scene in minutes.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 10 minutes from 8003 Sunset Drive #1E, and Camp Peary is about 15 minutes out — making this condo a genuinely practical home base for active-duty families assigned to either installation. A VA loan can make the path to ownership here straightforward, and Gloucester County's lower cost of living stretches your BAH further than many Peninsula zip codes.

For first-time buyers

If you're stepping into ownership for the first time, a two-bedroom condo in the Dockside community checks a lot of boxes: manageable square footage, a half bath for guests, and a neighborhood that feels established rather than transient. Hayes gives you a quieter entry point into the Virginia Peninsula market — real value in a county that hasn't been overrun by development.
