Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is its rare proximity to Dam Neck Annex — we're talking about a commute that barely registers on a clock. For anyone attached to the base, that daily time savings adds up fast. Pair that with easy access to NAS Oceana and you have a location that genuinely works for dual-military households or anyone who values a short, stress-free drive to work.
OCEAN LAKES and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Virginia Beach is one of the most livable cities on the East Coast, and the area surrounding Ocean Bay Drive reflects that well. The neighborhood has a quiet, established feel — mature trees, modest lots, and a pace that doesn't rush you. You're tucked into the southern end of the city, away from the busier resort strip, which means you get the benefits of Virginia Beach without the seasonal congestion right outside your door. That said, the beach is never far, and for those curious about things to do at VA Beach in winter, the answer is more than you'd expect — think First Landing State Park hikes, off-season seafood spots, and a surprisingly active local arts and dining scene that doesn't pack up when summer ends. The surrounding streets feel genuinely residential, and the proximity to both military corridors and civilian amenities gives this corner of Virginia Beach a practical, grounded character that appeals to a wide range of buyers.
What's nearby
Daily errands and downtime are well covered from this address. COCO's Cuisine is just 0.4 miles away for a quick dinner out, and Galley is under a mile if you're in the mood for something different. Panda Express rounds out the nearby dining options at about a mile. Green space is plentiful — Pine Meadows West Park and Pine Meadows Park are both within 0.4 miles, and Ocean Lakes Park is only 0.6 miles out, giving you easy access to open air without a drive. If you work out on base, the Dam Neck Fitness Center is roughly a mile away.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
With Dam Neck Annex literally one minute away and NAS Oceana reachable in about eight, this address is about as close to base as you can get without living on it. A VA loan makes ownership here straightforward, and the short commute means more time at home and less time in traffic — a real quality-of-life difference for active-duty families.
For first-time buyers
At 870 square feet with two bedrooms and two full baths, this home is a manageable, right-sized entry point into Virginia Beach homeownership. The layout doesn't waste space, the year-built puts you in a well-established neighborhood, and the proximity to parks and dining means you're stepping into a community with real daily convenience from day one.

About buying in Virginia Beach
Homes for sale in Virginia Beach, VA span every price point and lifestyle — from oceanfront condos along the famous Boardwalk to sprawling waterfront estates on the Lynnhaven River and Linkhorn Bay. As the largest city in Hampton Roads, Virginia Beach offers an unusually varied real estate market: established family neighborhoods in Great Neck (ZIP 23454), golf-course communities in Kempsville (23464), modern townhomes near Town Center (23462), and beach-cottage living along Sandbridge (23456). Whether you're searching for a starter home under $300K, a family home in a top-rated school district, or a luxury property north of $2 million, the active MLS inventory updates daily here. Buyer demand stays strong year-round, driven by Virginia Beach's mild coastal climate, the consistently top-ranked Virginia Beach City Public Schools (Kempsville High, Floyd E. Kellam High, Princess Anne High, and Cox High among them), and the city's role as home to Naval Air Station Oceana — the largest master jet base in the country. Military families relocating here through PCS orders make up a meaningful share of buyers, and VA loan financing is widely used. First-time buyers gravitate toward the inland ZIPs (23464, 23456, 23452), while second-home and luxury buyers tend toward 23451 (Oceanfront/North End) and 23454 (Great Neck/Bay Colony). Below you'll find every active Virginia Beach home for sale pulled live from the REIN MLS and refreshed every 5 minutes.
