Why this home stands out
New construction in Gloucester is rare at this scale. This home arrives with four bedrooms, three full baths, a half bath, and 3,065 square feet — all on a lot along Bailey's Wharf Road. You're getting a home built to current code, with modern systems and a fresh warranty clock. That combination of size, location, and new-build quality is genuinely hard to find in this corner of the Middle Peninsula.
ALL OTHERS AREA 120 and the Gloucester real estate market
Bailey's Wharf Road sits in Gloucester County, a stretch of the Virginia Middle Peninsula where the Chesapeake Bay watershed shapes the landscape and the pace of daily life. The roads here wind past mature hardwoods, open fields, and waterfront parcels. Housing tends toward single-family homes on generous lots, with a mix of established properties and newer builds like this one. The character is distinctly rural-coastal — quiet streets, real space between neighbors, and a strong sense of place. Gloucester Courthouse, the county seat, anchors the area with a historic courthouse circle and a small-town commercial core. Route 17 is the main artery, connecting the county north toward Yorktown and south toward the Gloucester Point bridge over the York River. Anyone comparing Gloucester homes for sale will notice that the county offers a slower rhythm without sacrificing access to the broader Hampton Roads region. Getting to Williamsburg takes roughly 30 minutes. The Hampton Roads metro is accessible via the Coleman Bridge.

The rural-coastal setting, the wooded surroundings, and the proximity to the York River create a sense of place that a subdivision development rarely delivers.
