260 Ewell Ln, Chesapeake, VA 23322

Why this home stands out

What sets 260 Ewell Lane apart is its rare walkability for a Chesapeake single-family home — Food Lion, Lily's Crepes, Taxus Street Coffee, and the Great Bridge/Hickory Family YMCA are all within a third of a mile. Add an eight-minute commute to the USCG Finance Center and a well-established 1969 build on a mature lot, and you have a combination that's hard to replicate in this zip code.

GREAT BRIDGE and the Chesapeake real estate market

Chesapeake is one of the largest cities by land area in the United States, and the Great Bridge corridor is one of its most livable pockets. The area carries a small-town feel — tree-lined streets, neighbors who wave, and a pace that doesn't rush you — while sitting squarely inside a city with full urban infrastructure. Great Bridge has its own identity: historic roots tied to the Revolutionary War battle fought nearby, a tight grid of residential streets, and a commercial strip along Battlefield Boulevard that keeps most errands local. Among Chesapeake homes for sale, addresses in this corridor tend to attract buyers who want proximity to both the water and the highway without paying waterfront premiums. Interstate 64 and the Virginia Beach Expressway are reachable in minutes, connecting you to Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and the wider Hampton Roads region. The neighborhood reads as genuinely settled — mature trees, established lots, and a community that has been here long enough to know itself.

For fitness, Preston Strength and the Great Bridge/Hickory Family YMCA are 0.3 miles away, and Great Bridge Fields is under a mile for open-air workouts. Wildcat Park is 0.6 miles out — an easy bike ride or a brisk walk for weekend afternoons.
