Why this home stands out
What makes 8560 Victory Hill Lane stand out is the land. Two-plus acres in this part of Gloucester County means genuine breathing room — space for a garden, a fire pit, a detached workshop, or simply a backyard where the kids can disappear for hours. The 1983-built home layers four bedrooms and three and a half baths across 3,100 square feet, giving you the square footage of a suburban new-build without the postage-stamp lot that usually comes with it.
ALL OTHERS AREA 120 and the Hayes real estate market
Hayes sits in the heart of Gloucester County on the Middle Peninsula, tucked between the York River to the south and the Ware River to the north. It's a community that attracts people who want the slower rhythm of coastal Virginia without completely stepping away from the Hampton Roads metro. The area around Victory Hill Lane is characterized by wooded lots, long driveways, and neighbors who value their privacy — the kind of place where you wave from the porch rather than over a six-foot fence. Gloucester County's jurisdiction means a different tax structure and pace than the densely developed cities across the water, and many buyers find that trade-off very much worth it. The Hayes zip code — 23072 — puts you within a reasonable drive of Gloucester Courthouse, the York River waterfront, and the bridges that connect you to Williamsburg, Newport News, and the broader Hampton Roads region. If the ALL OTHERS AREA 120 designation sounds vague, the lived experience is anything but: this is quiet, green, genuinely rural-adjacent Virginia at its most appealing.
What's nearby
Daily life in Hayes is unhurried, and your immediate surroundings reward that pace. YROC Coastal Bar & Grill is just a mile from the door — a local waterfront favorite for seafood, cold drinks, and the kind of laid-back atmosphere that makes a Tuesday feel like a weekend. For broader shopping and services, Route 17 through Gloucester Point is your corridor, connecting you to grocery stores, pharmacies, hardware shops, and the full range of everyday errands without a long haul. The York River State Park and the broader network of Gloucester County trails and boat launches mean outdoor recreation is always close, whether you're into kayaking, hiking, or simply finding a quiet spot on the water.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is an 11-minute drive from 8560 Victory Hill Lane, and Camp Peary is roughly 18 minutes out — making this address a practical anchor for dual-base households or anyone whose orders land them in the lower York River corridor. VA loan eligibility can stretch further on 2.18 acres in Gloucester County than it would on a comparable lot size closer to base, and that math matters when you're weighing your options.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and 3,100 square feet already give you room to grow, but the real upgrade here is the 2.18-acre lot. There's space for a trampoline, a vegetable garden, a basketball half-court, and still enough tree line to feel like you're living somewhere rather than just parking somewhere. Gloucester County's pace of life tends to stick with families once they experience it — the commute trade-off is real, but so is the quality of daily life.
