Why this home stands out
What sets 1104 Nolan Ave apart is its combination of compact, manageable square footage and genuinely walkable surroundings — grocery, food, and fitness options all within a mile. For a 1960s ranch, the single-level layout means no stairs and no wasted space. Add sub-10-minute drives to two separate military installations and you have a property that punches well above its size in practical, daily-life value.
SHERRY PARK and the Virginia Beach real estate market
1104 Nolan Ave sits in the Indian River corridor of Virginia Beach, a mature, established pocket of the city where mid-century ranches line quiet residential streets and neighbors tend to stick around for years. The area has a no-frills, lived-in character — wide lots, mature trees, and a pace that feels a step removed from the busier commercial strips nearby without sacrificing convenience. Virginia Beach as a city spans an enormous footprint, and this part of it sits well inland, which means you get the city's amenities and infrastructure without the oceanfront traffic. Even during a virginia beach winter, the inland location keeps daily routines predictable — shorter commutes, less coastal wind exposure, and easy access to the highway network that connects you to Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Chesapeake in minutes. It's the kind of neighborhood where you can walk to grab groceries, hit a gym, or bowl a few frames, then be back home before the afternoon is over.
