Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Four full bathrooms mean less morning conflict and more flexibility for remote work or guests. The 1993 construction brings established neighborhood character without requiring a major renovation. A 2,769-square-foot footprint gives you genuine space to grow without oversized utility bills. The lot sits on a residential street away from main corridors, so you get quiet without isolation. If you're comparing Chesapeake homes for sale, this property's bath-to-bedroom ratio and square footage stand out in the mid-range market.

HICKORY and the Chesapeake real estate market

Benefit Road sits in a mature, tree-lined section of Chesapeake where homes have settled in over decades. The street itself is residential and calm—the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in Chesapeake with steady appeal. You'll find a mix of ranch and two-story homes, most built between the 1980s and 2000s, creating a neighborhood with consistent character. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's second-largest city by area, stretching across 430 square miles of suburban and rural landscape. Daily life centers on local shopping, parks, and schools rather than a downtown core. Getting around is straightforward: major routes like Battlefield Boulevard and Military Highway connect you to Hampton Roads' employment centers, shopping, and entertainment. The Naval Station Norfolk area is about 25 minutes south; Virginia Beach and the beach itself are roughly 30 minutes away.

What's nearby

The area is zoned for homes for sale zoned for Hickory Elementary School and homes for sale zoned for Grassfield High School. For shopping and dining, you're close to local convenience stores and family restaurants along nearby corridors. Battlefield Boulevard, about a mile away, carries most of the area's retail and service traffic. The Chesapeake City Parks system includes several neighborhood parks with playgrounds and walking trails within five to ten minutes' drive. Medical care is accessible through Chesapeake Regional Medical Center and urgent-care clinics scattered throughout the city.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

NSA Northwest Annex is nine minutes away by car, making this address practical for active-duty and civilian personnel assigned there. VA loan financing is common in this area, and the home's 1993 construction and solid systems mean you can close and move in without major delays. The quiet street and established neighborhood appeal to those seeking stability near base.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms and four bathrooms give each household member their own space and bathroom access. The 2,769-square-foot layout spreads across a practical floor plan suited to remote work, hobbies, or a home office. A full lot provides room for outdoor projects, play, or future additions. Storage and garage space round out the flexibility that comes with an established home of this size.
