Why this home stands out

Five bedrooms and three full baths across nearly 3,000 square feet is a combination that's genuinely hard to find in this price tier of Chesapeake. Whether you need room for a growing family, a dedicated home office, or a guest suite that actually feels like a suite, 1213 Lakeford Place has the square footage to make it work without anyone feeling cramped. The 1986 build era means solid construction with room to personalize.

BRANDERMILL and the Chesapeake real estate market

Lakeford Place sits in the southern reaches of Chesapeake, Virginia — one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast and consistently ranked among Virginia's most livable communities. This corner of the 23322 zip code is defined by established residential streets, mature tree canopies, and a pace of life that feels genuinely unhurried. Neighbors tend to stay for years, and the streets reflect that kind of long-term investment. Chesapeake as a whole offers a rare balance: you're close enough to Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and the broader Hampton Roads metro to access major employers, entertainment, and the waterfront, yet far enough from the urban core that your evenings are quiet. The city maintains its own parks system, recreation centers, and commercial corridors, so daily errands rarely require leaving city limits. For a five-bedroom household, that self-contained quality matters.

What's nearby

Daily life runs smoothly from Lakeford Place. Grocery options, pharmacies, and casual dining are all within a short drive along the major corridors serving the 23322 area. Greenbrier Mall and its surrounding retail strip — one of Chesapeake's main commercial hubs — is easily reachable for larger shopping runs. Local parks and green space give the neighborhood a suburban-outdoor feel that works well for families. Commuters heading toward the Norfolk Naval Shipyard have a roughly 21-minute drive, and the USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is just about nine minutes away, making this location genuinely practical for military households stationed at either installation.
