Why this home stands out
What sets 912 Sand Bank Road apart is the land. Four-plus acres in this corner of Mathews County is genuinely hard to come by — it gives you the kind of breathing room that smaller suburban lots simply can't offer. The 1991 construction means solid bones without the unpredictability of a much older home, and the rural setting delivers genuine quiet without putting you hours from the services and employers you need.
ALL OTHERS AREA 126 and the Port Haywood real estate market
Port Haywood sits in the heart of Mathews County on Virginia's Middle Peninsula — a stretch of land tucked between the Chesapeake Bay and the York River that moves at its own unhurried pace. The area draws people who want acreage, water access, and a genuine sense of community without the density of Hampton Roads proper. Life here revolves around the outdoors: kayaking, fishing, crabbing, and long drives past tidal creeks and working farms. If you've been searching for houses for sale in King William VA or anywhere along the Middle Peninsula, Port Haywood represents a distinct flavor of rural coastal Virginia that's increasingly difficult to find. Mathews County is small by design — there's no sprawl, no big-box corridor, and the landscape has stayed largely intact for generations. Neighbors tend to know each other, and the pace of daily life reflects that. It's the kind of place people move to on purpose.
What's nearby
Everyday needs are covered in nearby Mathews Court House, the county seat, where you'll find grocery options, a pharmacy, and local services within a short drive. The Mathews Farmers Market brings fresh local produce and community energy on weekends. Gwynn's Island is just a few miles away — a beloved local landmark with boat launches, waterfront views, and a slice of authentic Chesapeake culture. For a wider range of dining and retail, Gloucester Court House is roughly 20 minutes north, and Williamsburg's full commercial corridor is accessible within 45 minutes.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is about 35 minutes from 912 Sand Bank Road, and Joint Base Langley-Eustis (Langley AFB) is roughly 37 minutes — both manageable commutes from a property this size. A VA loan can make financing a rural acreage home straightforward, and your BAH rate for the Hampton Roads area is worth running against the numbers here. Four acres and a three-bedroom home is a combination that's hard to match closer to base.
For families upgrading
If your current home feels like it's shrinking, 912 Sand Bank Road offers a genuine reset. Four-plus acres means room for a garden, a workshop, animals, or simply the kind of outdoor space where kids can actually roam. The 1,926-square-foot layout with three bedrooms and two baths gives you a functional, right-sized home — and Mathews County's rural character means you're gaining space without trading away community.
