Why this home stands out
What sets 1008 Chalbourne Drive apart is the combination of generous square footage — 2,405 feet across four bedrooms — and a location that puts two neighborhood parks, a local farm market, and multiple fitness options within easy walking or driving distance. For a home built in 1992, the floor plan delivers the kind of room count and layout flexibility that growing households or anyone who works from home will appreciate right away.
ETHERIDGE WOODS and the Chesapeake real estate market
Chalbourne Drive sits in the Great Bridge corridor of Chesapeake, one of the most consistently sought-after pockets in all of Hampton Roads. Chesapeake is Virginia's second-largest city by land area, and the southern end — where this home sits — trades urban density for wide lots, mature tree lines, and a pace of life that feels genuinely suburban without being remote. The zip code 23322 covers a broad swath of the Great Bridge and Hickory areas, known for quiet residential streets that connect quickly to major routes like Battlefield Boulevard and Interstate 64. Daily errands are easy: you're within a mile of 3W's Farm Market for fresh produce and local goods, and the broader Great Bridge commercial corridor covers everything from big-box retail to locally owned restaurants and coffee shops. Etheridge Lakes Park and Emerald Lakes Park are both under a mile away, giving the neighborhood a green, open feel that residents genuinely notice. It's the kind of area where neighbors wave from driveways and kids ride bikes after school — classic Chesapeake at its best.
What's nearby
Step outside and you're already close to the things that make daily life feel easy. CoreForge Pilates is just 0.2 miles away — practically a warm-up walk. Handsprings, Etc., another fitness option, is 0.8 miles out. For fresh groceries and local produce, 3W's Farm Market is under a mile at 0.9 miles. Two parks anchor the neighborhood's outdoor life: Etheridge Lakes Park at 0.5 miles and Emerald Lakes Park at 0.6 miles offer walking paths, open green space, and a natural backdrop that's hard to put a price on. The Great Bridge area along Battlefield Boulevard adds dining, pharmacy, and retail within a short drive.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is roughly 10 minutes away, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about 22 minutes — a commute that keeps you close to two installations without paying a premium for it. Four bedrooms give you room for a home office or a dedicated space for kids, and a VA loan can make the financing side of this purchase straightforward. Chesapeake's Great Bridge area is a perennial favorite for military households for good reason.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and 2,405 square feet give a growing family genuine room to spread out — whether that means a dedicated playroom, a home office, or simply a guest room that doesn't double as storage. Two parks within half a mile mean outdoor time is always close, and the farm market down the road makes healthy weeknight dinners a realistic habit rather than a weekend project. This is the kind of home you grow into.
