Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

At nearly 2,400 square feet, this 1998-built home gives you room that smaller builds in the area simply can't match — three bedrooms, two full baths, a half bath, and space to spread out without feeling like you're rattling around. The late-nineties construction era means solid bones, sensible layouts, and features that hold up well over time. It's the kind of house where daily life just works.

ALL OTHERS AREA 32 and the Chesapeake real estate market

Sanderson Road sits in the southern reaches of Chesapeake, Virginia — a city that consistently ranks among the most desirable places to live in the commonwealth. This part of Chesapeake carries a distinctly suburban feel: wide lots, mature tree lines, and a pace that invites you to slow down a little. The zip code 23322 covers a broad swath of the city's Great Bridge and Hickory corridors, areas known for their quiet residential streets and strong sense of community. You're far enough from the urban core to enjoy genuine quiet, but close enough to the city's major corridors that errands and evenings out don't require a long drive. Chesapeake itself is the second-largest city by land area in the continental United States, which means open space is a real feature of life here — not just a talking point. Parks, waterways, and greenways thread through the city, and the overall character of this zip code reflects that: unhurried, well-kept, and genuinely livable.

What's nearby

Daily life along Sanderson Road is straightforward in the best way. Grocery options, pharmacies, and everyday retail are reachable within a short drive along the city's main commercial corridors. The Chesapeake City Park system and the Northwest River Park — one of the region's most beloved outdoor spaces — are close enough to make weekend hikes or kayak launches a regular habit. Great Bridge Battlefield and Waterways History Museum adds a layer of local history worth exploring. For dining and coffee, the Great Bridge area offers a solid mix of local spots and familiar names without the congestion of a denser urban strip.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is about 21 minutes away, and NAS Oceana is reachable in roughly 32 minutes — both well within a reasonable daily commute. A VA loan can make a home at this size and in this zip code very attainable, and the southern Chesapeake location keeps you clear of the heaviest Hampton Roads traffic patterns during peak hours.

For families upgrading

If you've outgrown your current space, 2,397 square feet across three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths gives you real room to grow. The 1998 build year means you're getting a home that's past the quirks of older construction but still has the layout flexibility that newer ultra-efficient builds sometimes sacrifice. Southern Chesapeake's quieter streets and larger lots make the upgrade feel complete.
