Question ...does your company have a website? Yes, www.MrWilliamsburg.com
I want to rent a home at first (with patio or small courtyard or yard....for my very small dog) and be near Colonial Williamsburg and a great gym. The gym is critical....I go three times a week! And I would like to work in Colonial Williamsburg. And somehow, meet people and make friends my age....50's and 60's. Rent needs to be under $1500 a month.....and I have seen some things on a realtor's site in Jamestown Farms , whatever that is. The treet is Gaslight Way...and the listing says it is in Williamsburg. Is that a good idea for a single woman living alone, with only dog and cat for company? I have made the mistake of being too isolated before and it was very lonely and really deadly.
What is Newtown?
The home you asked about on Gaslight is in the Waterford section of Powhatan Secondary, great neighborhood with both families, individuals and retirees. Powhatan is one of the most conveniently located communities in the entire county. Within walking distance are a major department store ( Target), a major food store,( Ukrops) several pharmacies, a full-service gas station, two major bank/lending institutions, eateries, novelty stores, and service establishments such as video rental and parcel mailing.
Within a few miles is The James City County Rec Center it offers a great gym with fitness equipment, indoor pool, indoor track, racquetball, basketball, fitness programs and more. Ironbound Gym is another popular workout spot located nearby in New Town.
New Town has become the center of Williamsburg/ James City County. It is a Traditional Neighborhood Development ( TND) Everything is walk-able. Within it are 24+ places to eat, a 12 screen movie theater, Barnes and Noble, Several Coffee Shops, a bakery, Trader Joes, other retail stores, banks, doctors offices, dentist offices and much more. Housing options in New Town range from town-house style apartments to town–homes ( Oxford) to detached homes, to midrise condos. Prices in New Town range from $200’s to over $500k. Apartments rent for $1050 for one bedrooms, and $1250 for two bedrooms. They do accept pets.
There was one home in Counselors Close for only $1425. I almost never see rentals that nice that close to CW. Quaint little village like community only a few blocks to Merchants Square and all of CW. That along with a few in Powhatan for $1500 or less might be worth considering.
