About this home

Don't miss out on this waterfront Penthouse condo in the heart of Great Bridge. Relax on one of two huge decks overlooking your own private boat slip offering the epitome of coastal living. Once inside, you will find a light-filled open space great for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The updates, including the HVAC, low-maintenance LVP flooring, and fresh paint mean you can pack your backs (and life jackets) and move right in! The ample storage indoor and out (don't miss the walk-in attic inside the primary closet) adds practicality and function. The resort-style condo amenities are not to be missed- not only is trash, water, and sewer covered, but you also have a community pool, clubhouse, and ground maintenance to leave all of your free time to enjoy your new coastal lifestyle. The sellers are open to selling the new boat and floating dock for an additional cost.

Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

173 Harbor Watch Drive is a 1,894-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home in Chesapeake's Great Bridge area, built in 1990. Coffee, groceries, a historic battlefield park, and two military installations are all within a short drive — daily life here is genuinely convenient.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 173 Harbor Watch Drive apart is its position at the intersection of walkable convenience and Chesapeake's quieter residential pace. A battlefield park and a waterways greenway sit literally steps away, Kroger is under half a mile, and the USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is a five-minute commute. For a 1990-built home with over 1,800 square feet, this address punches well above its footprint in lifestyle value.

HARBOR WATCH CONDO and the Chesapeake real estate market

Harbor Watch Drive sits in the Great Bridge corridor of Chesapeake — one of the city's most historically layered neighborhoods. Great Bridge is where the southernmost major Revolutionary War land battle was fought in 1775, and the battlefield park is practically your neighbor at 0.1 miles away. The area has the feel of an established, tree-lined community that knows what it is: unhurried, connected, and proud of its roots. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's second-largest city by land area, and Great Bridge is one of its most walkable pockets. You're close enough to Norfolk and Virginia Beach to enjoy everything the metro offers, yet far enough removed that the streets stay calm. Families comparing homes for sale in Chesapeake often land here precisely because the neighborhood delivers both character and convenience without the congestion of denser urban cores.

What's nearby

Step outside and the options stack up fast. Alohahola Hawaiian Kitchen and Joyu Tea & Coffee are both 0.1 miles away — morning coffee or a quick lunch sorted before you've even left the block. Taco Bell/KFC and Tropical Smoothie Cafe are within 0.2 miles, and Panera Bread is just 0.3 miles out. Kroger is 0.4 miles away for full grocery runs. For fitness, Riverview Wellness is 0.2 miles out, with RISE Personal Training and Your Time Fitness (open 24/7) both under a mile. Great Bridge Battlefield & Waterways Historic Park is 0.1 miles away, Great Bridge Lock Park is 0.5 miles, and Judge Eileen Olds Courtyard Park rounds out the green space at 0.6 miles.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is five minutes away, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is a straightforward 15-minute drive — making 173 Harbor Watch Drive a natural fit for service members at either installation. A VA loan can make this three-bedroom layout even more accessible, and the half-bath adds the kind of everyday flexibility that busy military households genuinely appreciate.

For first-time buyers

At 1,894 square feet with three bedrooms and two and a half baths, 173 Harbor Watch Drive offers real room to grow without overwhelming first-time buyers. Groceries, coffee, parks, and fitness options are all within half a mile, so you're not dependent on a long commute for everyday errands. Buyers browsing homes for sale in 23320 will find this address delivers a lot of livability per square foot.
