Why this home stands out
What sets 9113 George Washington Memorial Highway apart is the land. At 1.4 acres, you have real breathing room — space for a garden, a workshop, a fire pit, or simply the kind of quiet that closer-in properties rarely offer. The 1979 ranch footprint keeps things manageable, but the lot gives you options that most comparably sized homes simply cannot match.
ALL OTHERS AREA 121 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 — a part of coastal Virginia that moves at its own deliberate pace. The George Washington Memorial Highway corridor through Gloucester County is one of those routes where small farms, mature trees, and long driveways still define the landscape. This isn't the dense suburban grid of Hampton Roads proper; it's a quieter, more rural character that draws people who want acreage without sacrificing reasonable access to services and employment. Gloucester Courthouse, the county seat, anchors the area with its historic courthouse green, local shops, and community events. The broader region has a long maritime heritage, and while this address is inland, the water is never far — the York River waterfront and spots reminiscent of the laid-back coastal feel you might associate with willoughby beach are all within a reasonable drive. Gloucester County is an independent jurisdiction, meaning county services and a distinct community identity shape daily life here.
What's nearby
Ark Park is just 0.2 miles away — a genuine convenience for morning walks, weekend afternoons, or letting kids burn energy without loading up the car. Gloucester Courthouse village puts grocery options, pharmacies, hardware stores, and local dining within a short drive along Route 17. The broader Middle Peninsula gives you access to waterfront dining and boat launches along the York River. Richmond is roughly an hour northwest, and the Hampton Roads metro — with its full range of retail, medical centers, and employment — is accessible via the Coleman Bridge.
