Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Built in the post-war era, this home carries classic bones and a straightforward floor plan across 4,000 square feet. Five bedrooms give you flexibility—guest rooms, a home office, or space to spread out. The 3.1 baths serve the home well, and the property sits on a corner lot with mature trees. You'll find homes for sale in Virginia Beach with this much square footage and bedroom count don't come along every day in this price range.

NORTH END VA. BEACH and the Virginia Beach real estate market

This is a quiet, tree-lined block in an established Virginia Beach neighborhood. The streets are calm, with homes set back from the road and plenty of green space between properties. You're close enough to walk to parks and restaurants, but far enough from traffic noise to feel peaceful. Virginia Beach itself is a sprawling coastal city with a strong military presence and a mix of residential, commercial, and waterfront areas. The 23451 zip code sits in the central part of the city, putting you minutes from both NAS Oceana and Dam Neck Annex. Getting around is straightforward—major roads like Shore Drive and Military Highway are nearby. If you are comparing homes for sale in 23451, note that this address offers solid walkability to local shops and dining without the bustle of the beachfront.

What's nearby

Surf Club Ocean Grille is just a short walk away, perfect for a casual dinner out. Becca Restaurant & Garden and Hunt Room are both under a mile if you're in the mood for something more upscale. We Scream Ice Cream and Coffee Shop is a neighborhood favorite, and there's a 7-Eleven for quick errands. Fitness-minded? AREOM Studio is less than a mile away. Three parks—Surf Beach Club, Buff's Garden, and Bay Colony Park—are all within walking distance, offering green space and recreation.
