About this home

This is one of those truly extraordinary homes that must be experienced in person. Set along the Lynnhaven Bay, this remarkable property offers a rare blend of natural beauty, artistry, craftsmanship, and thoughtful design. The grounds are a gardener's dream, lovingly designed and maintained by the Master Gardener owner. Native plantings create a true pollinator's paradise, attracting abundant wildlife and earning certifications, including Certified Wildlife Habitat and Monarch Waystation. Meandering walkways lead through the front and side gardens, where designated beds showcase hundreds of varieties of flowers. The backyard is a breathtaking retreat, anchored by a spectacular 72-foot Pennsylvania Bluestone horizontal fountain inspired by the famed fountains of the Alhambra Palace in Granada. Mature trees frame the grounds, creating privacy and serenity as the property culminates at a private dock overlooking the Lynnhaven Bay with deep-water access. Inside, a dramatic entrance features a distinctive $35,000 Chihuly-style chandelier, custom-blown by local artist John Quillen, who studied under Dale Chihuly. Natural light pours throughout the home beneath soaring cathedral ceilings. The beautifully remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, top-of-the-line appliances, and a spectacular island topped with fossil-filled Italian marble dating back millions of years—a truly one-of-a-kind focal point. The home offers an expansive great room, dining room, library, and five bedrooms, including two ensuite bedrooms. Additional features include a large two-car garage, RV electrical hookup, brand-new HVAC, and an immaculate crawl space with a $6,000 dehumidifier. Buyers and brokers are invited to the Open House Wednesday, August 19th, 2–5 PM. A home of this character, artistry, and setting is exceptionally rare—and not one you are likely to encounter again.

Why this home stands out

Five bedrooms and four and a half baths across 3,700 square feet gives this 1998-built Virginia Beach home the kind of breathing room that genuinely changes how a household functions — separate spaces for working from home, hosting guests, or simply spreading out. The Great Neck corridor it sits in is one of the city's quieter, more established pockets, close to water and recreation without the resort-strip energy.

GREAT NECK POINT and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Gaines Landing sits in the Great Neck area of Virginia Beach — a mature, tree-lined part of the city that runs between Broad Bay and Little Creek Reservoir. Streets here tend to be quiet and residential, with a mix of established homes from the late 1980s through early 2000s that give the area a settled, unhurried feel. Virginia Beach as a whole is one of the most livable cities on the East Coast: a large, diverse city with a real waterfront identity, strong infrastructure, and a military community woven into its everyday fabric. The Great Neck corridor specifically rewards people who want suburban calm with surprisingly quick access to the water, the Oceanfront, and the interstate. You're not trading convenience for peace here — you genuinely get both.

What's nearby

Broad Bay Estates Park is just 0.6 miles away, and Great Neck Park & Indoor Pavilion is within 0.7 miles — both easy to reach on foot or by bike. Chelsea/Green Hill Park adds another green option less than a mile out. For fitness, Virginia Beach Tennis & Country Club and Great Neck Recreation Center are both roughly 0.8 miles from the door. When it's time to eat, The Porch on Long Creek and Long Bay Pointe Bait and Tackle are a mile away and carry a distinctly local, waterfront vibe. Si2healthcare rounds out the immediate dining radius at 0.8 miles.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is about ten minutes away, and NAS Oceana is roughly eleven — making 2908 Gaines Landing a genuinely practical base for active-duty households at either installation. Five bedrooms handle deployment cycles, returning family, and home-office needs without compromise. A VA loan can make a home at this square footage more accessible than many expect.

For families upgrading

If you've outgrown your current space, 3,700 square feet across five bedrooms and four and a half baths is the kind of layout that actually solves the problem. There's room for everyone to have a dedicated space, and the Great Neck neighborhood adds parks, recreation, and a calm street environment that makes the day-to-day feel easy.
