Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What genuinely sets 8038 Boxwood Lane apart is the scale — 4,646 square feet of interior space paired with 5.43 acres of land is an unusually generous package for Gloucester County. You're getting room to spread out inside and outside, whether that means a workshop, a garden, space for animals, or simply the kind of quiet buffer from neighbors that most properties in the region simply can't offer. Add a 1993 build year that means solid construction without the maintenance unknowns of an older home, and the value proposition becomes clear.

ALL OTHERS AREA 121 and the Gloucester real estate market

Gloucester, Virginia carries a character that's genuinely hard to replicate — a small-town Courthouse district with independent shops and restaurants, a working waterfront along the York River, and residential roads lined with mature trees and generous lots. Boxwood Lane sits within the broader rural fabric of Gloucester County, where five-acre parcels are a normal part of the landscape rather than an exception. Life here moves at a deliberate pace. You're not in a subdivision with a homeowners association managing your lawn; you're on your own land, making your own decisions. For buyers searching homes for sale near fort eustis, Gloucester's position on the Middle Peninsula puts you within a reasonable commute of the entire Hampton Roads military corridor via the Coleman Bridge and Route 17. The county seat is just a few minutes away, and the wider region — Williamsburg, Yorktown, and the Peninsula — is accessible without the congestion of Norfolk or Virginia Beach. It's a lifestyle trade-off that many buyers make deliberately and rarely regret.

What's nearby

Daily errands are straightforward from Boxwood Lane. The Gloucester Courthouse area — with its grocery options, pharmacies, hardware stores, and local dining — is a short drive down Route 17. Ware Neck and the broader county offer waterfront parks and public boat ramps for York River access. Williamsburg's historic district and its full retail and dining corridor are roughly 25 minutes west, making weekend outings easy. The Colonial Parkway connects you to Yorktown and the broader National Historical Park system. Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is approximately 29 minutes away, and Camp Peary sits about 24 minutes from the property.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

If you're stationed at Naval Weapons Station Yorktown or Camp Peary, 8038 Boxwood Lane puts you within a reasonable daily commute — roughly 29 and 24 minutes respectively. A VA loan can make a property like this, with its acreage and square footage, more accessible than many buyers expect. Gloucester's lower cost of living and lack of HOA restrictions give military families genuine flexibility that tighter suburban neighborhoods often don't.

For families upgrading

If your current home feels like it's shrinking, 4,646 square feet across three bedrooms and three baths gives everyone room to breathe — and 5.43 acres means the yard isn't an afterthought. There's space here for a trampoline, a fire pit, a vegetable garden, and still have acreage left over. Gloucester County's rural setting means your neighbors aren't on top of you, and the commute corridors to Williamsburg and the Peninsula keep you connected without sacrificing the space you're after.
