Why this home stands out
What sets 2864 Raccoon Trail apart is the combination of scale and land. A 3,424-square-foot new-construction home with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and 1.37 acres is a rare package anywhere in Hampton Roads — and especially so in Chesapeake, where lots this size are disappearing fast. You're getting the breathing room of a rural property without giving up suburban convenience. Fresh construction means modern systems, modern finishes, and no deferred maintenance waiting around the corner.
SANDERSON ESTATES and the Chesapeake real estate market
Sanderson Estates sits in the southern reaches of Chesapeake, a city that consistently ranks among the most livable in Virginia for good reason. The streets here are quiet, the lots are generous, and the pace of life slows down just enough to remind you why people seek out this part of Hampton Roads. Chesapeake is the second-largest city by land area in the entire United States, and that geography shows up in neighborhoods like this one — wide open, unhurried, and genuinely green. Families comparing homes for sale in Chesapeake often land in this zip code precisely because the trade-off between space and commute time still works in your favor. The 23322 zip code anchors the Hickory corridor, a pocket of Chesapeake that has grown steadily while holding onto its character. You're close enough to everything — shopping, dining, healthcare — while still coming home to a neighborhood where the neighbors actually know each other.
What's nearby
Northwest River Park is just a mile from your front door — 763 acres of trails, campgrounds, canoe launches, and open water that most Chesapeake residents would drive 20 minutes for. It's the kind of everyday amenity that changes how you spend your weekends. Beyond the park, the Hickory corridor along Battlefield Boulevard puts grocery stores, pharmacies, hardware stores, and a solid lineup of local restaurants within a short drive. Daily errands don't require a highway. Greenbriar and Chesapeake Square areas expand your retail and dining options further north, and the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge is within easy reach for anyone who wants more serious outdoor adventure.

For military families relocating
