Why this home stands out
What sets 1912 Frizzell Drive apart is its combination of generous square footage — over 2,000 square feet across four bedrooms — and an almost unbeatable position relative to JEB Little Creek-Fort Story. Few addresses in Virginia Beach put you this close to base while still keeping grocery stores, local restaurants, parks, and fitness options within a half-mile stroll. For a 1962-built home, the footprint is notably spacious, giving you room to grow without sacrificing location.
LAKE SHORES and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Frizzell Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket of Virginia Beach, a city that consistently ranks among the most livable on the East Coast. The surrounding streets carry the unhurried character of an established mid-century neighborhood — mature trees, modest lot sizes, and neighbors who tend to stay for years. Virginia Beach itself stretches from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline to the Atlantic oceanfront, and this address lands you on the bay-side of that spectrum, close to the water without the resort-strip crowds. The area attracts a genuine mix of military families, long-term locals, and buyers who want real neighborhood texture over cookie-cutter development. If you've been comparing custom homes Virginia Beach has to offer across different zip codes, this corridor rewards a closer look — the bones of the community are solid, the commute corridors are efficient, and the lifestyle is refreshingly low-key.

For different buyers
For military families relocating
Two minutes from JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is about as close as it gets without living on base.

A VA loan is a natural fit here, and the four-bedroom layout gives growing families the space they actually need — not just the minimum.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and more than 2,000 square feet give a growing family genuine room to breathe. The 1962 construction means the lot and floor plan are proportioned generously compared to newer infill builds. Add walkable groceries, parks, and fitness options to the mix, and you get a neighborhood where kids can actually get outside and parents can run errands without getting in the car every time.
