Why this home stands out
What sets 22 Plaza Drive apart is the combination of mid-century bones and an unbeatable proximity to both Langley AFB and everyday conveniences. Four bedrooms in a 1951-era home means real room sizes — not the chopped-up floor plans that came later. Add a walkable cluster of food, fitness, and green space, and this address delivers a lifestyle that larger, newer houses in farther-out zip codes simply can't replicate.
