Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

The floor plan spans 5,500 square feet across seven bedrooms, giving you room to spread out. Five and a half bathrooms mean mornings run smoothly. A corner lot on a residential crescent provides quiet and breathing room. The 1969 construction reflects classic beach-home character. You're walking distance to Molly Cooper Road beach access, yet set back from the main tourist flow. This size and layout are uncommon in Sandbridge Beach.

SANDBRIDGE BEACH and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Sandbridge Beach is a quieter corner of Virginia Beach, where tree-lined streets meet sandy soil and ocean breezes. The neighborhood feels residential and low-key, not commercial. Homes here tend toward spacious and established. Daily life centers on beach access, local spots like Food for Thought, and a slower pace than the main resort strip. Virginia Beach itself is a sprawling coastal city with military roots, strong job markets, and year-round outdoor culture. Getting around means car travel mostly; the beach communities sit south of the main urban core. If you're comparing homes for sale in Virginia Beach, note that Sandbridge offers a distinctly quieter, more residential character than northern neighborhoods. The 23456 zip code anchors this southern oceanside pocket.

What's nearby

Food for Thought restaurant is just 0.2 miles away—close enough for a quick meal without leaving the neighborhood. Molly Cooper Road beach access sits 0.9 miles away, offering direct entry to the sand and surf. Both are walkable or a short drive. The area keeps a low commercial profile, which means quieter streets and fewer crowds. Grocery and pharmacy runs require a short drive north into the main Virginia Beach corridor.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Dam Neck Annex is about ten minutes away; NAS Oceana is roughly seventeen minutes. Seven bedrooms and five baths give everyone space. VA loan financing is common in this area, and the home's established condition means fewer surprises at inspection. You can move in and settle quickly.

For buyers drawn to character

Built in 1969, this home carries genuine beach-house character from an earlier era of Sandbridge. The crescent location and mature lot feel timeless. Five and a half baths and seven bedrooms let you preserve original details while adding modern comfort. Oceanside living at this scale is increasingly rare.

Data sources: Flood zone and base flood elevation come from FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer. Property elevation is sampled from a single point on the parcel using the USGS National Map elevation service — actual elevations across a single property can vary by several feet higher or lower than the figure shown. Use these numbers as a starting reference and do your own due diligence (a professional survey or elevation certificate) before relying on them for any financial, insurance, or construction decision.
