Make your mark on history when you build or purchase your new home in the historic City of Williamsburg, Virginia! Nestled within this charming community are amazing outlet malls, beautiful botanical gardens, Williamsburg’s famous historical district, and more. The Williamsburg area is close to the sparkling York River and lush forested areas, so you will never run out of great outdoor activities. Williamsburg has so much to offer and here are some of our favorite reasons why HHHunt Homes’ homeowners love living in the area:

  • The History: Williamsburg was the capital of Virginia at the time of the American Revolution, and the area prides itself on keeping that history alive. Travel back in time to experience the earliest days of the United States by visiting Colonial Williamsburg, Historic Jamestown, or Yorktown. Experience 17th-century Virginia through films, exhibitions and outdoor living history. Pretend that you’re living in the first permanent colony in the United States and even see replicas of the ships that sailed from England to Virginia in 1607! In addition, Williamsburg is also home to the College of William and Mary, the country’s second-oldest public university!
  • The Outdoor Activities: With more than 109 miles of bicycle paths throughout, it’s no surprise that outdoor living and recreation is a large part of the Williamsburg culture. July is National Park Month, so it’s only fitting to spend the day at some of the nearby parks, including Veterans Memorial Park, Kiwanis Park, New Quarter Park, and more. Take a trip to the local Farmers Market every weekend and pick fresh apples at Bush Neck Farm. Spend the day on the water and take a kayak ride on Powhatan Creek!
  • The Theme Parks: Spend the day riding the thrilling roller coasters, watching the entertaining shows, and even hanging out with some wild animals at Busch Gardens! Busch Gardens is fun for the whole family and has won the most beautiful theme park award for more than 20 consecutive years. Just down the road is Water Country USA, a 43-acre water park that’s the perfect place to cool off on a hot summer day. In addition, on every weekend during the summer, Busch Gardens showcases a brilliant fireworks display at 9pm!
  • The Shopping: Williamsburg has some of the best shopping in Virginia. Williamsburg Premium Outlets is one of the most popular outlet malls in the country. Merchants Square offers high-end restaurants and specialty shops. New Town showcases unique and local boutique stores. With so many options, there are plenty of places to shop for unique one-of-a-kind items and at larger department stores as well.
