Why this home stands out
What sets 1029 Fireside Lane apart is the combination of genuine square footage and lot size that's increasingly hard to find in this part of Virginia Beach. At 2,694 square feet across four bedrooms and three full baths, there's room to spread out without compromise. The 0.23-acre lot adds outdoor breathing room, and the 1968 construction era means solid bones, mature landscaping, and a street presence that newer subdivisions simply can't replicate.
HOMESTEAD and the Virginia Beach real estate market
HOMESTEAD is one of those Virginia Beach neighborhoods that rewards the buyer who looks past the flashier new-build corridors. Streets here are lined with mature trees, lots run generous, and neighbors tend to put down roots — the kind of community feel that takes decades to develop. Fireside Lane itself is a quiet interior street, giving you a residential pace while keeping you connected to everything the city offers. Virginia Beach is a sprawling, diverse city, and while buyers sometimes search for condos for sale in Virginia Beach when they first start browsing, many ultimately land in established single-family neighborhoods like HOMESTEAD once they weigh space, lot size, and long-term value. The city's mix of military presence, coastal culture, and suburban infrastructure makes it one of the most livable metros in the Mid-Atlantic. From 1029 Fireside Lane, you're positioned in the south-central part of the city — close to the Chesapeake border, well inside the beltway, and with easy access to I-264 and the Virginia Beach Expressway.
