Why this home stands out
What sets 1009 Seagull CT apart is the combination of generous square footage — over 3,000 square feet across a thoughtfully laid-out floor plan — and a cul-de-sac address that keeps through traffic off your street. Etheridge Pines is a quiet, established neighborhood, yet you're never more than a short drive from the full range of amenities southern Chesapeake offers. That balance of calm and convenience is genuinely hard to find.
ETHERIDGE PINES and the Chesapeake real estate market
Etheridge Pines sits in the southern reaches of Chesapeake, Virginia — one of the most sought-after areas for buyers who want space, greenery, and a genuine neighborhood feel without sacrificing access to the rest of Hampton Roads. The community is well-established, with mature trees lining residential streets and a pace of life that feels unhurried. When people search for homes in Chesapeake, this pocket of the city consistently earns attention for exactly those qualities. Chesapeake itself is the second-largest city by land area in Virginia, meaning you get suburban breathing room alongside a full suite of shopping, dining, and services. The Great Bridge corridor nearby anchors daily life with grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants, while Interstate 64 and the Virginia Beach Expressway keep the broader region within easy reach. Whether you're commuting north toward Norfolk or heading south toward the Outer Banks for a weekend, 1009 Seagull CT puts you in a strong geographic position.
