Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

New construction in the 23451 zip code is rare, and a five-bedroom layout this close to the Atlantic is rarer still. This home delivers 3,091 square feet of finished space with four full baths and a half bath — room to spread out without sacrificing proximity to the water. Cape Story Park is 0.2 miles away. Wake Forest Street public beach access is 0.4 miles out. The address sits inside one of the tightest coastal corridors in all of Virginia Beach homes for sale.

CAPE STORY BY THE SEA and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Wake Forest Street sits in the North End of Virginia Beach, a stretch of the oceanfront known for wide lots, mature trees, and a quieter pace than the resort strip to the south. Streets here run perpendicular to the ocean, so the beach is never more than a short walk in either direction. Housing is a mix of long-held cottages, renovated ranches, and newer builds — 2245 fits right into that evolving fabric. The blocks feel residential and unhurried, even in summer. Virginia Beach itself is the most populous city in the Commonwealth. It spans from the Chesapeake Bay to the Atlantic, with a working waterfront, state parks, and a downtown arts district all within the same city limits. Getting around is straightforward: Interstate 64 connects the North End to the broader Hampton Roads region. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23451 will notice how much this zip code packs into a relatively compact coastal footprint.

What's nearby

Day-to-day errands are easy from this address. Food Lion is 0.4 miles away for grocery runs, and a BP station is under a mile out. For food, Surf Rider Grill, Saigon #1 Pho, and Hot Tuna are all within 0.4 miles — walkable on a good evening. Tropical Smoothie Cafe is 0.5 miles out, and Dunkin' is 0.7 miles. Cape Story Park is just 0.2 miles away, a natural buffer of trails and open space. Studio Bamboo Institute of Yoga, Fit4Life Health and Wellness, and TakeOver Athletics First Landing are all within half a mile for fitness options.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is about 11 minutes from this address, and NAS Oceana is roughly 13 minutes out. VA loan financing is well-established in this zip code, and new construction means no deferred maintenance to negotiate around. The five-bedroom layout gives flexibility for a home office or dedicated guest space. Closing timelines on new builds can align well with PCS order windows.

Room to grow

Five bedrooms and four and a half baths across 3,091 square feet give everyone room to settle in. The layout supports a dedicated home office, a guest suite, and still leaves bedrooms to spare. Built in 2025, every system is new — roof, HVAC, plumbing. Buyers comparing homes for sale zoned for Cox High School and homes for sale zoned for John B. Dey Elementary School will find this address falls within both attendance zones.
