Why this home stands out
New construction in 2026 means everything — the roof, the systems, the finishes — is untouched. You get four bedrooms and three and a half baths spread across 2,235 square feet, so there is real room to spread out. A Walmart Supercenter sits just 0.1 miles away, which is genuinely rare for a residential street. The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is about 11 minutes out, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is roughly 15 minutes in the other direction. That combination of new build, walkable errands, and dual-base access is hard to find.
CARDINAL MEADOWS and the Chesapeake real estate market
Songbird Lane sits in the 23323 zip code on Chesapeake's western side, a corridor that has seen steady new residential development over the past decade. The streets here are quiet and newer, with fresh sidewalks and a mix of recently built single-family homes. It has the feel of a neighborhood still coming into its own — clean, calm, and close to everything that matters. Chesapeake itself is one of the largest cities by land area in the entire country. That size means genuine variety: rural stretches to the south, dense retail corridors to the north, and waterways woven throughout. The city is governed independently, which gives it control over its own roads, services, and planning. Getting around is straightforward. Interstate 664 and Route 17 are both nearby, connecting you to Norfolk, Portsmouth, and the broader Hampton Roads region without a long surface-road slog. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23323 will notice that this part of Chesapeake punches above its weight on access — you can reach a grocery store, a gym, and a coffee shop before you even leave the immediate block.
What's nearby
Step outside and the errands practically take care of themselves. A Walmart Supercenter is 0.1 miles away — close enough to walk. Publix Super Market at Dominion Station is 0.8 miles out for a full grocery run. Dunkin' is right at 0.1 miles when you need a quick coffee, and KENSLEY'S Açaí & Café is 0.2 miles away for something a little different. Tap It Local, a neighborhood bar and restaurant, is just 0.2 miles down the road. For fitness, you have three options within 0.1 miles: Ascend Bungee Fitness, Widespread Movement, and Tidewater Jiu-Jitsu Academy. That kind of walkable variety is genuinely uncommon in suburban Chesapeake.
