4009 1st St, Chesapeake, VA 23324

Why this home stands out

Built in 2007, this four-bedroom, three-bath home gives you meaningful square footage — 1,972 of it — without the maintenance surprises that come with older stock. Three full baths across four bedrooms is a layout that genuinely works for households that need flexibility: a guest room that doubles as an office, a teenager who wants their own bath, or a multi-generational setup that needs breathing room.

PORTLOCK TERRACE and the Chesapeake real estate market

The 23324 zip code sits in the South Norfolk corridor of Chesapeake, a city that often surprises people who assume it's just a suburb of Norfolk. Chesapeake is an independent city — the second-largest by land area in Virginia — with its own government, infrastructure, and distinct neighborhoods. South Norfolk has a working-class, unpretentious character that's been quietly attracting buyers who want proximity to the shipyard and the broader Hampton Roads job market without paying waterfront premiums. The streets here are residential and low-traffic, with a mix of early-2000s construction and older homes that give the area a lived-in, genuine feel. You're close enough to downtown Norfolk and the Elizabeth River waterfront to enjoy them, but far enough away that daily life stays calm and manageable. Chesapeake's city services, parks network, and access to I-464 all work in your favor from this address.
