100 Alice St, Chesapeake, VA 23323

Why this home stands out

What makes 100 Alice Street stand out is the combination of military-base proximity and genuine neighborhood texture. Norfolk Naval Shipyard is an eight-minute drive, USCG Base Portsmouth is nine minutes, and yet the street itself feels removed from the commuter grind — crab houses, Latin markets, and a riverside park are all within a mile. Four bedrooms in 1,428 square feet means every room earns its keep, and the 1956 build gives the home a solidity that newer tract construction rarely matches.

DEEP CREEK and the Chesapeake real estate market

Alice Street sits in western Chesapeake, a part of the city that trades the polished subdivisions of the Great Bridge corridor for something a little more lived-in and local. The surrounding blocks have a working waterfront character — you're close to the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River, and the land use reflects that: small businesses, family-run eateries, and community parks rather than big-box retail strips. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's second-largest city by area, which means this corner of it still has room to breathe. City services, utilities, and infrastructure are fully urban-grade, but the pace on the ground is quieter than the numbers suggest. Families comparing homes for sale in Chesapeake often discover that the western zip codes offer a different value proposition than the more publicized southern corridors — more character, shorter base commutes, and a neighborhood identity that has been building for decades rather than years.
