Why this home stands out
What sets 252 Golden Maple Drive apart is the combination of genuine proximity to NAS Oceana — we're talking a five-minute drive — and a walkable pocket of Virginia Beach where groceries, coffee, parks, and workouts are all reachable without getting on a highway. For a 1990-built single-family home with nearly 1,920 square feet, the layout gives you real living space without the sprawl of a newer-construction footprint.
LYNNHAVEN WOODS and the Virginia Beach real estate market
252 Golden Maple Drive sits in a quiet residential corridor of Virginia Beach — one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast and a place where military families, long-term residents, and first-time buyers all find their footing. This part of the city, tucked between the Lynnhaven area and the Oceana corridor, has the feel of an established neighborhood: mature trees, consistent street grids, and neighbors who have been around long enough to wave hello. Virginia Beach itself offers something rare — ocean beaches, bay-side waterways, a thriving Town Center district, and one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state, all within a single city boundary. The zip code 23452 places you well inside the city's western residential band, away from the resort-strip crowds but close enough to reach the oceanfront in under 20 minutes. It's a practical, livable slice of a city that genuinely has a lot going on.
