Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms in a sub-2,400-square-foot footprint is a layout that actually gets used — whether that means dedicated home-office space, a guest room that earns its keep, or room for a growing household to spread out without stepping on each other. Built in 1996, the home hits a sweet spot between modern construction standards and a neighborhood that already has its roots down, with mature surroundings and settled infrastructure.
COURTHOUSE ESTATES and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Amador Drive sits in the southern reaches of Virginia Beach, a part of the city where the pace is noticeably quieter than the oceanfront corridors but the conveniences are still close. The 23456 zip code covers a broad swath of Virginia Beach's interior — think established subdivisions, wide residential streets, and a community feel that comes from decades of families putting down roots here. Virginia Beach itself is the most populous city in the Commonwealth, and that scale means you get genuine variety: a robust parks system, multiple commercial corridors, a serious military presence, and coastal access that most landlocked metros can only envy. The southern end of the city, where Amador Drive lives, tends to attract buyers who want breathing room without sacrificing access to jobs, shopping, or the water. Neighbors here tend to stay, which keeps the streetscape consistent and the community familiar. It's the kind of address where you learn your neighbors' names.
What's nearby
The surrounding area gives daily errands a low-friction quality. Grocery options, pharmacies, and big-box retail cluster along the nearby commercial corridors of Nimmo Parkway and Princess Anne Road, keeping routine stops quick. Stumpy Lake Natural Area is a short drive away and offers hiking trails and a golf course for outdoor regulars. The Oceanfront is roughly 20 minutes east, and Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge is accessible to the south for kayaking and wildlife viewing. Several urgent care clinics and a full-service hospital system serve the area, and the Virginia Beach Town Center is reachable without getting on the interstate.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
NAS Oceana is 13 minutes away and Dam Neck Annex is 14 minutes out — two of the region's most active installations within a single commute window. For households navigating VA loan eligibility and BAH calculations, that dual proximity matters. Five bedrooms also gives you the flexibility to house visiting family during PCS transitions or keep a dedicated workspace when deployments shift the household dynamic.
For families upgrading
Moving up to five bedrooms changes how a household actually functions — there's finally a room for homework, a room for guests, and a primary suite that isn't shared with the laundry. At 2,392 square feet, 3144 Amador Drive gives you that expanded footprint without crossing into square footage that becomes a burden to heat, cool, and maintain. The 1996 build year means systems are mature but not ancient, and the southern Virginia Beach location keeps the daily commute manageable from multiple directions.
