Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the combination of generous square footage and a layout that actually puts all that space to work — four bedrooms, three full baths, and a half bath give households room to spread out without stepping on each other. Built in 2004, the home hits a sweet spot between modern construction standards and an established neighborhood feel. The proximity to two military installations, both under 15 minutes away, adds a practical edge that's hard to overlook.
OLDE MILL RUN and the Chesapeake real estate market
3508 Old Grandad Lane sits in the western reaches of Chesapeake, Virginia — a city that consistently ranks among the most livable in the mid-Atlantic. This part of Chesapeake carries a quieter, suburban rhythm: wide lots, mature trees lining residential streets, and neighbors who tend to stay put. The 23323 zip code is the kind of area where chesapeake real estate agents often point buyers who want space and accessibility without the congestion of the city's busier corridors. Chesapeake itself spans more than 350 square miles, blending rural stretches with well-connected suburban neighborhoods, and this address lands in a pocket that feels genuinely residential. You're close enough to the interstate to make commutes manageable, yet far enough removed from commercial noise that evenings feel calm. The neighborhood has an established character — homes here were built with families in mind, and the street reflects that.
What's nearby
Daily errands and casual meals are easy to handle without going far. Olde Mill Run Park is just 0.3 miles away — a quick walk when you need fresh air or a place to let kids burn off energy. For food, Red Robin, Waffle House, and a 7-Eleven are all within 0.9 miles, covering everything from a sit-down burger to a fast breakfast or a late-night snack run. It's not a walkable urban grid, but the cluster of options nearby means you're rarely driving more than a few minutes for the basics. Western Chesapeake connects easily to Route 17 and the Chesapeake Expressway, opening up the broader Hampton Roads metro.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Norfolk Naval Shipyard is roughly 14 minutes from this address, and the USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is about 15 minutes out — two of Hampton Roads' key installations within a short commute.

The drive times are consistent, and the neighborhood has the stability military families tend to prioritize.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths across 2,925 square feet means there's genuine room for a growing household — dedicated spaces for kids, guests, a home office, or all three. The 2004 build year means you're working with solid construction without the quirks of an older home. Olde Mill Run Park is a short walk away, and the western Chesapeake location keeps school-day commutes and weekend errands manageable.
