Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms and four full baths in a single-family home built in 1988 is a combination that genuinely stands out in Gloucester County. The square footage — 2,382 feet — threads the needle between manageable and spacious, giving you flexibility for a home office, guest suite, or dedicated playroom without the upkeep burden of a sprawling estate. That extra bath count is the detail that households with multiple people in the morning rush tend to appreciate most.
PINE MILL and the Gloucester real estate market
Gloucester, Virginia sits on the Middle Peninsula, tucked between the York River to the south and the Piankatank River to the north. It's one of those places where the pace feels intentional — rural enough to offer genuine quiet, connected enough that you're never far from what you need. Manor Drive sits within Gloucester County's residential fabric, where mature trees, generous lots, and a neighborly atmosphere define the streetscape. The county seat, Gloucester Courthouse, anchors the community with its historic district, local shops, and county services, all just a short drive away. Route 17 is the main artery that ties Gloucester to the broader Hampton Roads region, making commutes to the Peninsula and beyond straightforward. For anyone searching for Gloucester VA homes for sale, this address delivers the combination of space, setting, and accessibility that draws buyers to the county in the first place. Life here has a grounded, unhurried quality that's increasingly rare this close to a major metro area.
What's nearby
Daily errands are easy to handle without leaving the county. Gloucester's Route 17 corridor puts grocery stores, pharmacies, and dining within a short drive of Manor Drive. The Gloucester Point area, roughly ten minutes south, adds waterfront dining options and access to the Coleman Bridge crossing into Yorktown. Historic Gloucester Courthouse Village offers a farmers market, local restaurants, and small-town character worth exploring on a weekend. For outdoor time, Beaverdam Park provides trails, a lake, and kayak access — one of the more underrated green spaces on the Middle Peninsula.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Camp Peary is roughly 21 minutes away, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown sits about 30 minutes out — both well within a manageable commute from Manor Drive. Five bedrooms gives a military household real flexibility: space for a home office when you're working remotely, a dedicated guest room for family visits, and room for kids to have their own space. A VA loan can make this kind of square footage more accessible than many buyers expect.
For families upgrading
If you've outgrown a three-bedroom and the morning bathroom scramble has become a daily negotiation, 8172 Manor Drive answers both problems at once. Five bedrooms and four full baths across 2,382 square feet means everyone gets breathing room — and the Gloucester County setting trades suburban density for the kind of neighborhood where kids actually play outside. It's a meaningful upgrade in both space and quality of life.
