Why this home stands out
What sets 3229 Bow Creek Blvd apart is the combination of genuine 1960s character and a location that's hard to beat in this part of Virginia Beach. Four true bedrooms give you real flexibility — home office, guest room, nursery, or all three. The surrounding streets are established and walkable, with parks, specialty grocers, and a local market all within a half-mile. That kind of daily convenience, paired with sub-ten-minute base access, is rare at this price point.
PRINCESS ANNE PLAZA and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Bow Creek Boulevard sits in a mature, tree-lined pocket of Virginia Beach that feels settled without feeling sleepy. The neighborhood dates to the mid-twentieth century, so you'll find solid construction, generous lot sizes by city standards, and streets where people actually walk their dogs and wave at neighbors. It's not a flashy new subdivision — it's the kind of place people move into and stay for decades. Virginia Beach itself is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast, and this address puts you in a sweet spot: far enough from the oceanfront tourist corridor to feel like a real neighborhood, yet close enough to the beach, the Oceanfront boardwalk, and the broader amenities that make Virginia Beach one of the most livable cities in Hampton Roads. City services, parks, and recreation facilities are all well within reach.
