Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the combination of square footage and proximity that's genuinely hard to find in this price band of Virginia Beach. At 2,012 square feet, there's room to spread out across four bedrooms without sacrificing convenience. You're within half a mile of three parks, under a mile from two grocery stores, and six minutes from one of the region's largest naval air stations — a trifecta that suits a wide range of households.
GREAT NECK MEADOWS and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Saint Marshall Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket of Virginia Beach — a city of roughly 460,000 people that stretches from the Chesapeake Bay to the Atlantic Ocean and ranks among the largest cities by land area on the East Coast. This part of Virginia Beach, near the Great Neck corridor, carries a relaxed suburban character: tree-lined streets, established homes from the 1970s and 1980s, and a genuine sense of neighborhood. You're well inside the city's core, which means you get the benefits of urban infrastructure — solid roads, accessible services, well-maintained parks — without the density of the Oceanfront or Town Center. The zip code 23454 is a practical, livable slice of Virginia Beach that appeals to military families, long-term residents, and first-time buyers alike. Princess Anne Road and Virginia Beach Boulevard are both close by, giving you easy access to the broader city without fighting through resort-area traffic.

When you want to eat out, Anna's Kitchen, Dragon Restaurant, and Kelly's Tavern are each under a mile away. For coffee, Sleepy Cowgirl Coffee and Evolve Nutrition are both close by. Fitness options are equally strong — Parkside Pilates, Stability Crossfit, and TheStudio @RTC are all within 0.7 miles.
