Why this home stands out
Six bedrooms in a single-family home this size is genuinely rare — it gives you the flexibility to run a proper home office, host extended family, or dedicate rooms to hobbies without anyone feeling squeezed. At 4,811 square feet, the floor plan has room to breathe. Add a 1994 build year, which typically means solid construction with enough age for mature landscaping but not so much that major systems are ancient, and you have a property that's hard to replicate at this scale in Chesapeake.
BAYBERRY PLACE and the Chesapeake real estate market
Waterside Drive North sits in the Greenbrier corridor of Chesapeake — one of the city's most established and well-connected areas. Greenbrier is the kind of neighborhood where wide streets, mature trees, and a mix of long-time residents and newer families give daily life a settled, comfortable rhythm. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's second-largest city by land area, which means you get suburban breathing room without sacrificing access to the broader Hampton Roads metro. If you've been searching homes for sale chesapeake va, this part of the city consistently ranks among the most practical places to land — close to interstates 64 and 464, minutes from the Greenbrier Town Center, and positioned between Norfolk and the Outer Banks corridor. The city is part of the Hampton Roads region, sharing the metro with Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and Portsmouth, yet Chesapeake maintains its own distinct character: quieter, more spread out, and built around neighborhoods rather than tourist strips.
