Why this home stands out
With 2,760 square feet spread across four bedrooms and two and a half baths, this 1984-built home gives you genuine room to spread out — not just on paper. The lot sits in a quiet residential pocket of Chesapeake where you're genuinely close to everything: groceries, gyms, parks, and two military installations, all without trading away the calm of a neighborhood street.
BAYBERRY FOREST and the Chesapeake real estate market
Chesapeake is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast, and the section around Forest Point Drive captures exactly what draws people here — suburban calm paired with urban convenience. The Greenbrier corridor runs nearby, putting major retail, dining, and services within a short drive or even a walk. Neighborhoods in this part of Chesapeake tend to be established and tree-lined, with homes from the 1980s that have aged into mature, comfortable communities. Streets are quiet but never isolated. You're well inside city limits with easy access to Interstate 64, which connects you to the broader Hampton Roads region in any direction. Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about eleven minutes away, and the USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is practically around the corner at roughly three minutes. Whether you're commuting to a base, heading downtown, or just running Saturday errands, the location works hard for daily life in a way that newer outer-ring suburbs simply can't match.
