Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

1117 Sparrow Road is a 1,100-square-foot, three-bedroom home in Chesapeake, Virginia, built in 1959. It sits close to two major bases and a walkable stretch of everyday conveniences. Among Chesapeake homes for sale, this address stands out for its tight proximity to Norfolk Naval Shipyard.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What makes 1117 Sparrow Road different is its location. Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about eight minutes away, and so is USCG Base Portsmouth. Beasley's Farm is literally steps from the front door at 0.1 miles. Blue Heron Landing Park is just down the street. You get a compact, manageable home on a block where daily errands barely require a car.

INDIAN RIVER ESTATES and the Chesapeake real estate market

The streets around Sparrow Road carry the quiet, established character of a mid-century Chesapeake neighborhood. Homes here were built in the 1950s and 1960s, and the lots reflect that era — modest, well-spaced, and tree-lined. The block has a settled, familiar feel without feeling frozen in time. Chesapeake is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast. It spans from the Elizabeth River waterfront up through the rural Southside. The western edge, where Sparrow Road sits, connects easily to Portsmouth and Norfolk. Interstate 464 and the Chesapeake Expressway give you quick access across the region. Downtown Norfolk is about 15 minutes east. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23325 will notice how central this zip code really is — close to water, close to bases, and close to the commercial corridors along Military Highway.

What's nearby

Daily life is genuinely easy from this address. Beasley's Farm is 0.1 miles away, and both Enson and Grocery Outlet are within 0.3 miles. Wicker's Crab Pot Seafood is right around the corner for a quick dinner out. Sky Lounge Inc and D'Real Taste Restaurant are both 0.2 miles away. Blue Heron Landing Park is a short walk at 0.3 miles. Plymouth Park and Lecove Park are each under a mile. Drop Fitness & Wellness is about a mile out when you want a dedicated workout.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about eight minutes from the front door. USCG Base Portsmouth clocks in at the same distance. VA loan financing is common in this zip code, and the home's compact footprint means less to manage between deployments. The short commute window and straightforward floor plan make this address worth a close look.

For first-time buyers

A 1,100-square-foot, three-bedroom home from 1959 is a concrete starting point. The layout is simple and the lot is manageable — two things that matter when you are learning what ownership actually involves. Grocery stores, parks, and restaurants are all within walking distance. If you are weighing homes for sale zoned for Indian River High School or homes for sale zoned for Georgetown Primary School, this address falls inside both attendance zones.
