1040 Bobolink Dr, Virginia Beach, VA 23451

Why this home stands out

Scale is the story at 1040 Bobolink Drive. More than 5,100 square feet on a single address is genuinely rare in this corner of Virginia Beach, and the 1950 construction era means the bones here carry a solidity and character that newer builds rarely replicate. Four full baths plus a half bath means nobody is waiting in line on a busy morning — and with four bedrooms, there's room for a home office, a guest suite, or whatever your life actually calls for.

BIRDNECK POINT and the Virginia Beach real estate market

The 23451 zip code carries a well-earned reputation: you're close to the oceanfront energy of Virginia Beach without being swallowed by it, which means you get the lifestyle without the noise. This part of the city blends coastal character with a genuine neighborhood feel — sidewalks, green space, and streets calm enough that kids still ride bikes. Virginia Beach itself is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast, yet this corridor manages to feel like a small town tucked inside it. Families comparing homes for sale in 23451 consistently find that the combination of lot sizes, proximity to the water, and access to major employers makes this zip one of the most competitive in the region — and for good reason.
