Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 2805 Colonial Drive apart is its practical footprint in a city that keeps growing. Suffolk is one of the largest cities by land area in Virginia, and this address sits in the 23435 zip code — a quieter corner of town with quick access to main roads. The 1971 build gives the home solid bones. Three bedrooms and two full baths fit a lot of living into 1,296 square feet.

NANSEMOND SHORES and the Suffolk real estate market

Colonial Drive sits in a residential stretch of northern Suffolk, where the streets are lined with mid-century homes on generous lots. The area has a settled, unhurried feel — wide roads, mature trees, and neighbors who tend to stay. Housing here runs mostly single-family, with a mix of original builds and updated homes. It is the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23435 with real, lasting value. Suffolk itself is a city of contrasts: rural farmland to the south, growing retail corridors to the north, and a revitalized historic downtown in between. Getting around is straightforward. Route 17 and the Western Freeway connect you to Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and the rest of Hampton Roads without much fuss. The city has invested heavily in parks and recreation over the last decade. You get small-town pace with big-region access.

What's nearby

Everything you need day-to-day is within a mile of 2805 Colonial Drive. Food Lion is 0.9 miles away for your grocery run. When you want a quick bite, Burger King is just 0.7 miles out, and Hong Kong Restaurant is 0.8 miles for something different. Domino's Pizza rounds out the options at 1.0 mile. Moe Muscle gym is the closest stop at 0.6 miles — easy to work into any morning routine. You are well-positioned for errands without a long drive in any direction.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

The two-bath layout and move-in-sized footprint mean less time on logistics and more time settled in.

Suffolk is one of the more affordable entry points in Hampton Roads. Anyone comparing Suffolk homes for sale will notice that the 23435 zip code offers solid value relative to neighboring cities.
