Why this home stands out
Six bedrooms in a single-family home is genuinely uncommon at any price point, and 3504 Old Mill Road delivers exactly that — plus three full baths and a half bath spread across 2,802 square feet. The 1949 build date means the bones of this home predate the cookie-cutter era, giving it proportions and character that newer construction rarely replicates. Whether you need dedicated home-office space, a guest suite, or room for a multigenerational household, the floor plan here has real flexibility built in.
DEEP CREEK and the Chesapeake real estate market
3504 Old Mill Road sits in the western reaches of Chesapeake, Virginia — a city that consistently ranks among the safest and most livable in the mid-Atlantic. This part of Chesapeake carries a quieter, more residential feel than the busier corridors near the interstate, with mature trees lining the streets and a pace that feels genuinely unhurried. The area around Old Mill Road is a mix of established single-family homes, giving the streetscape a settled, rooted quality that newer subdivisions are still working to earn. Chesapeake itself spans an enormous footprint — the third-largest city by land area in the continental United States — which means you get suburban breathing room without sacrificing access to the broader Hampton Roads metro. Daily errands, dining, and recreation are all within a short drive, and the city's network of parks and waterways is woven throughout the landscape. If you've been searching for a home address that feels like it belongs somewhere real, this corner of Chesapeake delivers.
What's nearby
Olde Mill Run Park is just 0.6 miles from the front door — an easy walk or a two-minute drive when you want fresh air without a production. Deep Creek Lock Park, about a mile out, adds another green-space option with the added draw of the historic Dismal Swamp Canal Lock nearby. For quick stops, a 7-Eleven sits 0.9 miles away and covers both convenience-store runs and a morning coffee grab. The surrounding area connects easily to the broader Deep Creek corridor, where you'll find additional dining, shopping, and services along the main commercial strips.

Norfolk Naval Shipyard is roughly 13 minutes from 3504 Old Mill Road, and USCG Base Portsmouth is about 14 minutes out — both without highway stress on most commutes.

If your current home has you doubling up bedrooms or converting dining rooms into workspaces, 3504 Old Mill Road is worth a serious look.
