Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the rare combination of a classic 1960s ranch footprint — generous single-level living with room to personalize — and a location that genuinely earns the word convenient. NSA Northwest Annex is a 12-minute drive, Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is 13 minutes out, and a Walmart Supercenter sits just 0.4 miles away. That kind of daily-life ease is hard to replicate at this square footage in western Chesapeake.
