168 Ac St Brides Rd W, Chesapeake, VA 23322

Why this home stands out

This is genuine working land—168 acres in a rural pocket of Chesapeake that still feels removed from suburban sprawl. The Pleasant Grove area offers the kind of space where you can build your vision, whether that's farming, horses, or a custom home on acreage. Few parcels this large come available in the region. Zoning and utilities vary by exact location on the property; a conversation with the county assessor's office will clarify your options.

PLEASANT GROVE and the Chesapeake real estate market

Pleasant Grove is Chesapeake's quieter, more rural character. You'll find long sight lines, mature trees, and neighbors who value land and privacy. The neighborhood sits in the western part of the city, where development is lighter and the pace slower. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's largest city by land area—over 400 square miles—and it sprawls from suburban neighborhoods near Hampton Roads to genuine farmland like this. Getting around means driving; there's no transit out here, but NSA Northwest Annex is just 8 minutes away, and the USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is about 18 minutes. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23322 will notice this zip code spans both developed and undeveloped parcels. Route 17 and Route 58 are your main arteries to the rest of the region.

What's nearby

Expressway Park sits about a mile away and offers recreational space if you want a quick outing. The nearest grocery and services cluster around the Route 17 corridor, a short drive from the property. This is genuinely rural, so plan ahead for supplies and services. The trade-off is solitude and land—something you won't find in denser Chesapeake neighborhoods. You're far enough out that self-sufficiency matters, but close enough to reach town when you need it.
