At the end of Cherry Grove Road N lies one of Suffolk's most elegant secrets—a private waterfront estate where timeless design, deep-water access, and serene natural beauty come together on 1.96 acres. Set along the peaceful shores of Chuckatuck Creek, this custom white-brick residence enjoys approximately 100' pier and deep water measuring 7 feet at low tide. From the private pier, the view and boating possibilities stretch beyond the creek toward the Eastern Shore, offering a remarkable sense of connection to the water and the Chesapeake Bay beyond. Designed with elegance, entertaining, and family living in mind, the home is thoughtfully oriented toward the water. Every room along the rear of the residence captures a water view, while the expansive back deck creates an exceptional setting for morning coffee, afternoon
gatherings, or sophisticated evenings overlooking the creek. A screened porch extends the living experience outdoors, providing a peaceful retreat in every season. Inside, classic craftsmanship and comfortable sophistication define the home. The living room features a beautiful wood-burning fireplace, while a separate den offers another wood-burning fireplace and a more intimate setting for family and guests. The eat-in kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with a generous center island serving as the heart of the space. The residence offers four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, including a versatile fourth bedroom designed as a flex space with its own full bath—ideal for guests, a home office, studio, or private suite. From its custom white-brick exterior to its gracious interior spaces and extraordinary deepwater setting, this is a home created not simply to be admired, but to be lived in—to gather, entertain, unwind, and make lasting memories.
A rare combination of elegance, privacy, acreage, and deep-water access, this exceptional Chuckatuck Creek property is a true Suffolk waterfront sanctuary.

1882 Cherry Grove Road North is a four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home in Suffolk, Virginia, built in 1979 and offering 3,437 square feet of living space. The lot is generous, the layout is spread out, and the address puts you in the quiet 23432 zip code. Suffolk homes for sale at this size are genuinely hard to find.
Three thousand four hundred square feet is a lot of home. This 1979-built property delivers four bedrooms and three full baths plus a half bath — room that most comparable Suffolk addresses simply don't offer. The 1979 construction era means solid bones and established lot dimensions. Buyers who need space without trading away a suburban feel will find this address worth a close look.
CHERRY GROVE ESTATE and the Suffolk real estate market
Cherry Grove Road North sits in a quiet, established pocket of western Suffolk. The streets here are wide and tree-lined, and the lots run generous — a holdover from the era when this part of the city was built out. Neighbors tend to know each other. There is a settled, unhurried character to the block that newer subdivisions rarely replicate. Suffolk itself is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast. That size means genuine breathing room between you and the next development. Downtown Suffolk is a short drive east, with a compact Main Street scene and city services close at hand. Route 58 and Route 460 both connect quickly, making it easy to reach Chesapeake, Portsmouth, or Norfolk without fighting traffic for long. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Suffolk will notice that the 23432 zip code consistently offers more lot and more square footage per dollar than addresses closer to the coast.
What's nearby
Daily errands are straightforward from this address. A Walmart Supercenter and a Food Lion are both within a few miles, covering grocery runs and household basics. Several local diners and fast-casual spots line the Route 58 corridor nearby. Harbour View to the east adds a Target, a Home Depot, and a broader restaurant lineup within about fifteen minutes. Constant's Wharf Park and Marina in downtown Suffolk gives you a waterfront spot for an afternoon walk. Bennett's Creek Park is also close, with trails and a boat ramp for weekends on the water.
For different buyers
Base commute and VA loan notes
NSA Hampton Roads is about 22 minutes from this address, and MARFORCOM Norfolk is roughly 24 minutes out.

Four bedrooms and three and a half baths give everyone a place to land.
For buyers drawn to character
Nineteen seventy-nine construction means real wood, real brick, and rooms with actual dimensions — not the narrow hallways and thin walls of recent builds. This home has had decades to settle into its lot. The mature trees, the established landscaping, and the scale of the interior all reflect a time when homes were built to last. Buyers who want homes for sale in 23432 with genuine character will find this address delivers it.
