Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the combination of a generous 0.26-acre lot, a walkable pocket of shops and green space right outside the door, and back-to-back proximity to two major installations — NAS Oceana in six minutes and Dam Neck Annex in nine. For a late-1970s single-family home in Virginia Beach, that trifecta of space, convenience, and base access is genuinely hard to replicate.
LAKE PLACID and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Lake Placid is one of those established Virginia Beach neighborhoods that quietly delivers what newer developments promise: mature trees, a real sense of community, and streets that actually feel lived-in. Built out largely in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the subdivision carries that era's hallmarks — larger lots, solid construction, and a relaxed residential pace that hasn't been squeezed out by overdevelopment. Mirror Lake Drive sits close to the neighborhood's namesake lake and park, giving the immediate surroundings a greener, more open feel than you'd expect this close to the city's core. Virginia Beach itself offers a wide range of housing options — from oceanfront high-rises to quiet inland streets — and while buyers sometimes start their search focused on virginia beach condos, many end up drawn to neighborhoods like Lake Placid precisely because the lot size and single-family character offer something different. The broader Princess Anne corridor puts you within easy reach of the Oceanfront, Town Center, and the region's military installations without sacrificing the quieter residential atmosphere that makes Lake Placid worth knowing about.
What's nearby
Daily life is genuinely easy from Mirror Lake Drive. Millers is just 0.2 miles away for groceries and a quick coffee stop, and the Ready Room and PMS Deli — both within a third of a mile — cover everything from a casual lunch to a quick bite after work. Young Veterans Brewing Company is half a mile out and has become a neighborhood favorite for good reason. Lake Placid Park is a two-minute walk for morning runs or an afternoon outside. Fitness options are well-covered too: Grappler's Garage, The Iron Asylum Gym at Castleton, and Porrada Barbell are all within a mile, giving you real variety in training styles.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Six minutes to NAS Oceana and nine to Dam Neck Annex makes 2492 Mirror Lake Drive one of the more strategically located addresses in Virginia Beach for active-duty households. A VA loan pairs naturally with a home like this — solid square footage, a real yard, and commute times short enough to matter when schedules shift without notice. BAH rates in the area reflect the demand, and this location consistently holds its own.
For families upgrading
If you've outgrown your current space, the quarter-acre lot here gives you room to actually use the outdoors — not just look at it. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and nearly 2,000 square feet spread across a well-established neighborhood with a park within walking distance checks a lot of boxes for families ready for more breathing room. Lake Placid has the kind of settled, mature character that's hard to find in newer subdivisions at any price point.

About buying in Virginia Beach
Homes for sale in Virginia Beach, VA span every price point and lifestyle — from oceanfront condos along the famous Boardwalk to sprawling waterfront estates on the Lynnhaven River and Linkhorn Bay. As the largest city in Hampton Roads, Virginia Beach offers an unusually varied real estate market: established family neighborhoods in Great Neck (ZIP 23454), golf-course communities in Kempsville (23464), modern townhomes near Town Center (23462), and beach-cottage living along Sandbridge (23456). Whether you're searching for a starter home under $300K, a family home in a top-rated school district, or a luxury property north of $2 million, the active MLS inventory updates daily here. Buyer demand stays strong year-round, driven by Virginia Beach's mild coastal climate, the consistently top-ranked Virginia Beach City Public Schools (Kempsville High, Floyd E.

Military families relocating here through PCS orders make up a meaningful share of buyers, and VA loan financing is widely used. First-time buyers gravitate toward the inland ZIPs (23464, 23456, 23452), while second-home and luxury buyers tend toward 23451 (Oceanfront/North End) and 23454 (Great Neck/Bay Colony).
