Our read on this home

Meet 393 River Forest Road — a 3-bed, 3-bath condo in River Shores Condos with 1,795 square feet, built in 1990, and sitting just four minutes from NAS Oceana. Everyday conveniences, green space, and a tight-knit neighborhood vibe are all right outside your door.

Why this home stands out

Three full bathrooms across 1,795 square feet is a genuine differentiator in this price tier — it means no morning traffic jams when everyone's getting ready at once. The 1990 build hits a sweet spot: solid construction with enough age to have character, but recent enough that major systems aren't ancient history. And that four-minute drive to NAS Oceana? Hard to beat for anyone whose schedule revolves around the flight line.

RIVER SHORES CONDOS and the Virginia Beach real estate market

River Shores Condos sits in the heart of Virginia Beach, tucked into a quiet residential pocket that somehow manages to feel removed from the city's bustle while keeping you close to everything. The community has a settled, established feel — mature landscaping, neighbors who've been around long enough to wave hello, and streets that don't feel like a cut-through for commuter traffic. Virginia Beach itself is one of the most livable cities on the East Coast, and if you've been doing a homes for sale in va beach search, you already know how much variety the city offers across its many distinct neighborhoods. This corner of it — south of the Lynnhaven corridor, close to the Oceana corridor — draws a mix of military families and long-term civilians who appreciate the balance of suburban calm and urban access. The city's Atlantic shoreline, its sprawling parks system, and its restaurant scene are all within reasonable reach, and the general quality of life here tends to speak for itself once you've spent a weekend or two in the area.

What's nearby

Daily life is genuinely easy from River Forest Road. EJ's Kitchen is just a tenth of a mile away when you need a quick meal, and Just One More Bar and Grill is a short walk for something more laid-back. Grocery runs are covered by Food Lion half a mile out, with American Asian Food Market and a Chinese grocery both within 0.6 miles for more specialized ingredients. Coffee is handled by Wawa at 0.4 miles or The Veranda at 0.5 miles for something with a bit more atmosphere. For fitness, you've got Performance Pilates, Studio 8 Hot Yoga, and RockBox Fitness all within half a mile. Kenstock Park, Eureka Park, and London Bridge Park round things out for weekend walks or afternoon fresh air.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Four minutes to NAS Oceana makes 393 River Forest Road one of the most commute-friendly addresses in Virginia Beach for active-duty personnel. Dam Neck Annex is 12 minutes out, so dual-military households have real flexibility here. VA loan eligibility can make this kind of proximity even more accessible — and BAH rates for the Virginia Beach area tend to align well with this part of the city.

For first-time buyers

If you're stepping into homeownership for the first time, a condo in an established community like River Shores Condos can be a smart entry point. You get three bedrooms and three full baths — more space than most first-time buyers expect — without taking on a full single-family maintenance load. The walkable conveniences nearby mean you're not car-dependent for every errand, which adds up over time.
