Why this home stands out
Nearly 6 acres inside city limits is genuinely rare, and 1440 Taft Rd delivers exactly that. Built in 2026, the home pairs fresh construction quality — modern systems, new everything — with a lot size that feels more like a small farm than a subdivision. Four bedrooms, 2.1 baths, and 3,407 square feet give every household member room to spread out, while the acreage creates a buffer of quiet that most Chesapeake addresses simply can't match.
THE FIELDS AT TAFT and the Chesapeake real estate market
The Fields at Taft sits in the southern reaches of Chesapeake, Virginia — a city that consistently ranks among the safest and most livable in the Mid-Atlantic. This pocket of Chesapeake blends genuine rural character with practical city access. Large parcels are the norm here, and the surrounding landscape is defined by mature tree lines, open sky, and the kind of unhurried pace that's hard to find this close to an urban core. Chesapeake is an independent city within Virginia (not part of any county — a question worth knowing the answer to), and it carries all the services and infrastructure of a major municipality while preserving pockets of countryside like this one. The nearby lake drummond causeway chesapeake va corridor adds to the area's distinctive natural identity, connecting residents to the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge and miles of scenic roadway. Daily life here moves at your speed — whether that means morning walks on your own land or a quick drive to everything the city offers.
What's nearby
Everyday errands are well within reach from 1440 Taft Rd. The Dominion Square shopping corridor along Battlefield Boulevard puts groceries, pharmacies, and dining options roughly 10–15 minutes away. For outdoor recreation, Northwest River Park is a short drive south — one of Hampton Roads' most beloved county parks, with camping, kayaking, and trail access. The Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge is practically a neighbor, offering hiking and wildlife viewing year-round. Commuters heading north reach the Chesapeake city center quickly via Rt. 17, and both Virginia Beach and Norfolk are accessible within 30–40 minutes depending on traffic.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is about 20 minutes away, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard sits roughly 30 minutes north — both well within a reasonable daily commute. A VA loan can make financing a new-construction home like this one more straightforward, and BAH rates for the Hampton Roads area are among the stronger allowances in Virginia. Five-plus acres means space for vehicles, equipment, or simply the privacy that military families often prioritize after years of close-quarters base housing.
For families upgrading
If your current home feels like it's closing in, 1440 Taft Rd answers that problem decisively. Nearly 6 acres gives kids genuine outdoor space — room for a trampoline, a garden, a fire pit, and still have land left over. Four bedrooms and 3,407 square feet means dedicated space for a home office, a playroom, or a guest suite. New 2026 construction means no deferred maintenance surprises — just move in and start living.
