Why this home stands out
What sets 1513 Braishfield Court apart is the combination of a thoughtful floor plan — two en-suite bedrooms upstairs, a dedicated half bath on the main level — and a 2009 build year that puts you squarely in the era of modern insulation standards, energy-efficient windows, and open-concept living. At 1,862 square feet, you get genuine room to breathe without the upkeep footprint of a much larger home.
BRIGHTON PARK AT GREENBRIER and the Chesapeake real estate market
Braishfield Court sits in central Chesapeake, Virginia — one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast and a place where suburban calm and genuine urban convenience manage to coexist. The cul-de-sac setting on Braishfield Court keeps through-traffic minimal, giving the street a quieter, more residential feel than many comparably priced addresses in the region. Central Chesapeake is well-served by the Greenbrier corridor, which puts grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and big-box retail within a short drive in virtually any direction. Interstate 64 and the Virginia Beach Expressway are both accessible without navigating congested surface streets, which matters a great deal when you're commuting toward Norfolk, Portsmouth, or Virginia Beach. The city itself is known for its mix of established neighborhoods, good infrastructure, and proximity to every major Hampton Roads military installation — a combination that makes central Chesapeake a perennial draw for both long-term residents and those new to the region.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are easy from Braishfield Court. The Greenbrier area — just minutes away — anchors your routine with grocery options, pharmacies, coffee shops, and a wide range of dining from quick-service to sit-down.

For outdoor time, Northwest River Park and the Chesapeake Arboretum are both within a reasonable drive. The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is literally two minutes from the front door, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is reachable in about 13 minutes via surface roads — making this address genuinely convenient for dual-military households.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Two minutes to the USCG Finance Center Chesapeake and 13 minutes to Norfolk Naval Shipyard — the commute math is hard to argue with. A VA loan can make ownership here straightforward, and the 2009 build means you're moving into a home that already meets modern energy and construction standards. For a military household weighing Hampton Roads options, Braishfield Court deserves a serious look.
For first-time buyers
If you're buying your first home, 1513 Braishfield Court offers a manageable entry point into Chesapeake homeownership. The 2009 build year means major systems — HVAC, roof, plumbing — are relatively young. Two en-suite bedrooms simplify life for roommates or guests, and the half bath on the main level is one of those small details that makes daily living noticeably more comfortable.
