Why this home stands out
What sets 1719 Bancroft Road apart is the combination of size, newness, and location that's genuinely hard to find in one package. At 3,270 square feet with four bedrooms and three full baths, there's real room to grow here. Built in 2026, every system — roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical — is factory-fresh, which means you're starting the ownership clock at zero on maintenance worries. Haven at Centerville adds a cohesive neighborhood feel that older infill lots simply can't replicate.
HAVEN AT CENTERVILLE and the Chesapeake real estate market
Haven at Centerville sits in the heart of Chesapeake, one of Virginia's largest cities by land area and consistently ranked among the most livable in Hampton Roads. The neighborhood itself is a planned community with the clean streetscapes and coordinated architecture you'd expect from new construction homes in Chesapeake VA — sidewalks, green buffers, and neighbors who all moved in around the same time, which tends to build community fast. Chesapeake's Centerville corridor puts you close to everyday retail, dining, and green space without the congestion of older urban cores. The city's strong infrastructure investment shows in well-maintained roads and responsive municipal services. Whether you're relocating for work, military orders, or simply trading up, the broader Chesapeake market keeps drawing buyers who want suburban comfort with genuine city amenities — and Haven at Centerville delivers exactly that.
What's nearby
Daily life runs smoothly from this address. Grocery runs, pharmacy stops, and coffee breaks are all within a short drive along the Centerville Turnpike corridor. Chesapeake City Park — one of the region's largest municipal parks — is just minutes away and offers trails, athletic fields, and open space that's hard to put a price on. Several casual dining spots and quick-service restaurants cluster nearby for weeknight convenience. For bigger shopping trips, Greenbrier Mall and the surrounding retail district are a straightforward drive north. The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is roughly seven minutes away, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is reachable in about nineteen minutes — making this a practical base for anyone with ties to either installation.
