Why this home stands out
Built in 2023, this unit skips the renovation guesswork entirely. You're getting current construction standards, modern finishes, and systems that haven't had time to age — all packed into a generous 1,352-square-foot floor plan with two full baths. For a condo, the square footage is genuinely comfortable, giving you room to spread out without the upkeep demands of a detached home.
SPENCE CROSSING and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Virginia Beach is one of the most livable cities on the East Coast, and the zip code 23456 sits in the southwestern inland corridor — away from the tourist congestion of the Oceanfront but still well within reach of everything that makes Virginia Beach worth calling home. This part of the city tends to feel quieter and more residential, with newer development woven alongside established neighborhoods. Retail, dining, and services are dense along the nearby corridors, so daily errands rarely require a long drive. The area connects easily to both the beach resort strip and the interstate network, making it practical whether you're commuting north toward Norfolk or heading south toward Chesapeake. For military families especially, the positioning relative to NAS Oceana is a genuine advantage — a straight ten-minute shot makes base access about as easy as it gets in Hampton Roads.
What's nearby
Day-to-day convenience is strong around Dromolin Drive. The Nimmo Parkway and Princess Anne Road corridors put grocery stores, pharmacies, and casual dining within a short drive in multiple directions. Stumpy Lake Natural Area is close by for hiking and birdwatching, and the broader Princess Anne Commons district offers parks, athletic facilities, and open green space. The Virginia Beach Sportsplex and the Virginia Aquarium are both reachable in under fifteen minutes, giving weekends plenty of options. For coffee and quick meals, local spots along Dam Neck Road and General Booth Boulevard cover the basics without much effort.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Ten minutes to NAS Oceana means short commutes and more time at home — a real quality-of-life difference on a busy duty schedule. A VA loan can make ownership here straightforward, and the 2023 construction means you're unlikely to face surprise repair costs in the early years of ownership. Two full baths and over 1,300 square feet give a small family genuine breathing room.
For first-time buyers
A 2023-built condo is one of the more approachable entry points into Virginia Beach ownership — modern systems, no deferred maintenance, and a manageable footprint that doesn't overwhelm a first-time owner. At 1,352 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths, there's enough space to grow into while keeping the lifestyle relatively low-effort. It's a practical, well-located starting point.
