1508 Wood Ave is a four-bedroom, two-bath single-family home in Chesapeake, Virginia, offering 1,739 square feet of living space built in 1973. It sits within quick reach of two major military installations and the everyday conveniences of a well-connected South Hampton Roads city.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 1508 Wood Ave apart is its rare combination of four bedrooms and a compact, manageable footprint — enough room for a growing household without the overhead of a sprawling floor plan. The 1973 construction era typically means solid bones: brick or block foundation work, generous room proportions, and lot sizes that newer infill construction rarely matches. Two full baths keep morning routines running smoothly across a busy household.

NORFOLK HIGHLANDS and the Chesapeake real estate market

Wood Ave sits in the South Norfolk-adjacent corridor of Chesapeake — a part of the city that locals know for its straightforward grid streets, mature tree canopy, and a genuine neighborhood feel that newer master-planned communities sometimes trade away for uniformity. Chesapeake is Virginia's third-largest city by land area, which means you get suburban breathing room without sacrificing urban access. The area around 1508 Wood Ave blends long-established single-family homes with easy connectivity to Interstate 464 and the broader Hampton Roads highway network. Groceries, pharmacies, and everyday retail are minutes away in multiple directions. The city of Chesapeake itself continues to invest in parks, road infrastructure, and community amenities, making this part of South Hampton Roads one of the more quietly desirable places to put down roots in the region.

What's nearby

Daily errands from 1508 Wood Ave are genuinely low-effort. The South Military Highway commercial corridor puts grocery stores, big-box retail, and fast-casual dining within a short drive. The Chesapeake City Park system offers green space for weekend runs and family afternoons. Norfolk Naval Shipyard is roughly eight minutes away, making the commute straightforward for shipyard workers and contractors. The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is even closer at about seven minutes. Downtown Norfolk's waterfront restaurants, Scope Arena, and MacArthur Center are reachable in under twenty minutes via the interstate.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Seven minutes to the USCG Finance Center Chesapeake and eight minutes to Norfolk Naval Shipyard — the commute math works out well here. Four bedrooms give you the flexibility to set up a home office or a dedicated space for a family member who needs their own room. A VA loan can make ownership at this address more accessible than many service members expect.

For families upgrading

If you've outgrown a two- or three-bedroom home, 1508 Wood Ave answers the call. Four bedrooms mean everyone gets their own space, and two full baths prevent the morning bottleneck that smaller homes can't escape. The 1,739-square-foot layout is large enough to feel roomy but compact enough to heat, cool, and maintain without drama.
