Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms in Virginia Beach at this square footage gives you genuine flexibility — a dedicated home office, a guest room, and still room to grow. The 1989 build era typically means solid construction with room for modern updates on your own timeline. Add in the rare combination of a half-bath on the main level and proximity to two major military installations, and this address covers a lot of ground.
SOUTHERN WOODS and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Locust Grove Lane sits in the southern reaches of Virginia Beach, one of the most livable cities on the East Coast. This part of the city has a quieter, more suburban feel compared to the resort strip up north — wider lots, tree-lined streets, and neighbors who tend to stay put. Virginia Beach itself spans from oceanfront to farmland, and this address lands in a sweet spot: close enough to the beach for a weekend morning run, far enough from the tourist corridor to feel like a real neighborhood. The city is home to one of the largest municipal land areas in the country, which keeps density manageable and green space plentiful. Summers here are warm and social, winters are mild, and the overall pace of daily life feels intentional rather than rushed. It's the kind of address that works whether you're raising a family, working from home, or simply looking for more room to breathe.
What's nearby
Daily errands are straightforward from Locust Grove Lane. Grocery options, pharmacies, and big-box retailers are all within a short drive along the Princess Anne Road and Nimmo Parkway corridors. Stumpy Lake Natural Area is close by for hiking and fishing, and the Virginia Beach Farmers Market adds a local, community feel to weekend routines. The Oceanfront boardwalk is a reasonable drive for dining, entertainment, and beach access. Several parks and recreational facilities in the area make it easy to stay active without going far.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Dam Neck Annex is six minutes away, and NAS Oceana is eleven — that kind of commute is genuinely hard to find in Virginia Beach. Five bedrooms means you have space for a home office when you're working irregular hours, a dedicated room for kids doing homework, and a guest room for family visiting during deployment homecomings. A VA loan can make this size of home more accessible than many buyers expect.
For families upgrading
If you've outgrown a three- or four-bedroom home, 2516 Locust Grove Lane is worth a close look. Five bedrooms and 2,592 square feet give every family member defined space — no more sharing offices or converting dining rooms. The southern Virginia Beach location keeps school commutes manageable and puts parks, grocery stores, and recreational facilities within easy reach of your daily routine.
