Why this home stands out

Five bedrooms and four full baths in a single-family home this size is genuinely hard to find. The 1976 build means solid bones and generous room proportions that newer construction often skips. You get space for a home office, a guest room, and still have bedrooms to spare. That combination — square footage, bedroom count, and a sub-ten-minute drive to Dam Neck Annex — puts 2856 Bluebill Drive in a category of its own among Virginia Beach homes for sale.

SANDBRIDGE SHORES and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Bluebill Drive sits in the southwestern corner of Virginia Beach, deep in the 23456 zip code. The streets here are quiet and tree-lined, with single-family homes on generous lots. It has the feel of an established neighborhood — mature landscaping, wide setbacks, and neighbors who have been around long enough to know each other. This part of Virginia Beach developed steadily through the 1970s and 1980s, and the housing stock reflects that era's preference for space over flash. Getting around is easy. Princess Anne Road and General Booth Boulevard are both close, connecting you to the rest of the city in minutes. Virginia Beach itself spans from the Chesapeake Bay to the Atlantic, and from the North Landing River to the oceanfront. That scale means you are never far from water, parks, or a different kind of neighborhood energy. The city's Town Center district is about twenty minutes north for dining and nightlife. The oceanfront boardwalk is roughly the same distance east.

What's nearby

Food for Thought is just half a mile away — a local restaurant that earns repeat visits and is close enough to walk on a good evening. Grocery options and everyday errands are within a short drive along Princess Anne Road and General Booth Boulevard. Red Mill Commons, a large retail center, is nearby for big-box shopping and dining variety. Stumpy Lake Natural Area is minutes away if you want trails and open water without leaving the city. The broader corridor along General Booth Boulevard gives you pharmacies, coffee, and quick-service dining without a long drive. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23456 will notice that this part of Virginia Beach punches above its weight for everyday convenience.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Dam Neck Annex is about nine minutes away by car. NAS Oceana is roughly sixteen minutes. VA loan financing is widely used in this zip code, and the five-bedroom layout means you are not scrambling for space from day one. The home's size and proximity to two installations make it worth a close look for anyone weighing base-commute options.

For buyers drawn to character

A 1976 build in this size range is a different animal than a modern production home. The rooms are larger, the ceilings feel right, and the layout was designed for living rather than maximizing unit count. If you are drawn to homes for sale zoned for Floyd Kellam High School and homes for sale zoned for Red Mill Elementary School, this address checks both boxes while offering the kind of square footage and bedroom count that newer builds rarely match at this scale.
