Welcome to this distinctive and beautifully renovated Colonial Williamsburg–style home in the sought-after Queens Lake community of Williamsburg, Virginia. Built in 1965 with a timeless floor plan and craftsmanship, this residence has been thoughtfully updated and expanded by its second owner over the past 15 years. The result is a flexible, multigenerational home that combines historic character with modern comfort, making it ideal as a forever home at every stage of life.
The home’s welcoming interior showcases fine millwork, hardwood and maple flooring, multiple porches, and two fireplaces—one wood-burning, one gas. The U shaped kitchen features mahogany cabinets, a large peninsula breakfast bar, and a large sunny bay window breakfast area. It adjoins a spacious keeping room with reclaimed brick fireplace, walnut mantle, and rich Honduran mahogany panelling, creating the perfect setting for both intimate gatherings and entertaining on a larger scale.
Upstairs, the expansive primary suite offers ultimate privacy with over 340 square feet of space, dual walk-in closets, an elegant ensuite bath with soaking tub, and its own covered porch overlooking the gardens. Three generous guest bedrooms share a stylish stone-and-tile bath with dual vanities, plus abundant closet storage.
A standout feature of this home is the fully ADA-compliant annex with private kitchen, beautiful granite, walk-in shower, maple floors, and pocket doors—designed for aging in place, extended family living, or even guest accommodations.
Additional highlights include a tankless gas water heater, dual kitchens, gas cooktops, updated baths, and interior laundry. The detached, fully finished garage provides flexible bonus spaces—a heated/cooled on both floors, a ground-level workshop with extensive shelving, and recessed lighting throughout.
Outdoors, the property offers an extraordinary sanctuary with three established koi ponds, a enclosed English-style garden with raised brick beds, and mature landscaping including 16 Japanese maples, oaks, hollies, and Norway spruces. Multiple covered porches and a slate patio create endless opportunities for outdoor living. Garden furniture and porch seating convey, and select furnishings can also be negotiated.
This rare home in Queens Lake combines character, flexibility, and serenity in one of Williamsburg’s most desirable neighborhoods—all just minutes from Colonial Williamsburg, shopping, and major routes.

What the owner loves about this home
This home feels like a private retreat in the heart of Williamsburg. I love waking up to garden views from the master porch and hearing the sound of water from the koi ponds, and sitting on the front porch in the evenings. In colder weather enjoying a fire in either room! The flow from the kitchen into the colonial keeping room makes entertaining so warm and inviting. The gardens are where you can enjoy quiet mornings, or host friends under the shade of Japanese maples.
Queens Lake itself is a special community, known for its friendly neighbors, trails, and water access, but what makes this house unique is the flexibility—it truly adapts to every stage of life, with space for multigenerational living, hobbies, and outdoor enjoyment. It has been a home for family gatherings, celebrations, and peaceful escapes, and I hope the next owners will cherish it just as much as I have.
