The Neighborhood:
Cradled by the Chesapeake Bay, Hampton drifts between past and present like a well-worn sea tale, where sunlit harbors hum with history and every breeze carries the scent of salt and adventure. Here, weathered forts stand watch over gentle waves, and locals greet the day with coffee in hand and sand beneath their feet. Mornings might lead you down a quiet trail at Sandy Bottom Nature Park or out onto the docks to watch boats bob lazily in the marina. Kids laugh as gulls dance above, and history comes alive within the stone walls of Fort Monroe, where time seems to slow just enough to listen. As twilight settles, you might find yourself wandering downtown, where lights twinkle over the water and the scent of fresh seafood drifts from open doors. This home will place you right in the heart of it all, tucked into a neighborhood where the rhythm of the tides shapes daily life, and every corner tells a story worth lingering in. In Hampton, every day feels like a chapter in a breezy coastal story: easygoing, full of heart, and always near the sea.

Getting Around:
Walkable neighborhood with biking trails, bus routes throughout, easy access to I-64

Local gems:

- Fort Monroe: A historic stronghold offering bay views, shaded paths, and echoes of America’s early stories.

- Virginia Air & Space Science Center: A hands-on wonderland where rockets, planes, and stars come within reach.
