Why this home stands out
Properties at this scale are genuinely rare in Virginia Beach. Built in 2019, 1680 Godfrey Lane delivers nearly 11,000 square feet of finished living space — six bedrooms, seven full baths, and one half bath — on a 5.12-acre lot that gives you the kind of breathing room most neighborhoods simply can't offer. The combination of modern construction, acreage, and proximity to two major military installations makes this address a category of one.
ALL OTHERS AREA 43 and the Virginia Beach real estate market
1680 Godfrey Lane sits within ALL OTHERS AREA 43, a section of Virginia Beach characterized by larger lots, mature tree lines, and a quieter residential pace that feels worlds away from the resort strip — yet keeps you close to everything the city offers. Virginia Beach is one of the most sought-after coastal markets on the East Coast, and if you've been browsing virginia beach homes for sale in search of something with real acreage and modern construction, this corridor delivers both. The city itself wraps around 35 miles of coastline, a thriving restaurant scene, and a strong military presence anchored by NAS Oceana and JEB Little Creek-Fort Story. Area 43 in particular draws buyers who want elbow room without sacrificing access — you're still inside city limits, still close to grocery runs and coffee shops, but your nearest neighbor isn't ten feet away. It's a rare balance in a market that doesn't often offer it.
