Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

4012 Buchanan Drive is a four-bedroom, three-bath brick colonial in Hampton's Merrimac Shores neighborhood, offering 2,672 square feet on a quarter-acre lot just eight minutes from NSA Hampton Roads — a rare combination of size, location, and mid-century character.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Homes built in 1967 rarely come with this much square footage — 2,672 feet spread across four bedrooms and three full baths gives everyone genuine breathing room. The quarter-acre lot adds outdoor space that's genuinely usable, not just decorative. Pair that with an eight-minute drive to NSA Hampton Roads and a nine-minute shot to MARFORCOM Norfolk, and 4012 Buchanan Drive sits in a location that's hard to replicate at this scale.

MERRIMAC SHORES and the Hampton real estate market

Merrimac Shores is one of Hampton's quieter residential pockets — established streets, mature trees, and the kind of neighbors who've been around long enough to wave from the driveway. The neighborhood sits in the 23669 zip code, a part of Hampton that feels genuinely local rather than transient. You're close to the water without paying waterfront prices, and the surrounding blocks carry the low-key confidence of a community that doesn't need to prove itself. Hampton itself is one of the oldest English-speaking settlements in the country, and that history shows in the architecture and the pace of daily life here. From Merrimac Shores, you can reach downtown Hampton, the Virginia Air and Space Science Center, and the Hampton waterfront in under fifteen minutes. Families comparing Hampton homes for sale often find that this zip code delivers more lot and more square footage per dollar than newer developments across the region.

What's nearby

Daily errands barely require leaving the immediate area. Food Lion is just 0.3 miles away for a full grocery run, and Dollar General is practically at the corner — 0.1 miles — for quick pickups. When you'd rather not cook, Vancosta's Pizza, No. 1 Kitchen, and America's Best Wings are all within 0.2 miles. Trimble Field and Eason Park are both under a mile away for weekend afternoons, and the Public Overlook at 0.8 miles offers a spot to decompress with a view. A 7-Eleven at 0.5 miles covers your morning coffee run.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

NSA Hampton Roads is eight minutes away, and MARFORCOM Norfolk is nine — two major installations within a single commute window. The VA loan is a natural fit for a property this size, and Merrimac Shores has the kind of stable, established feel that makes it easy to put down roots even on a shorter tour. Four bedrooms means room for a home office or a guest room without anyone giving anything up.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms, three full baths, and 2,672 square feet give a growing family genuine room to spread out — not just on paper, but in practice. The quarter-acre lot adds real outdoor space, and the neighborhood's established character means your kids are growing up on streets with sidewalks and neighbors who look out for each other. Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Phoebus High School and homes for sale zoned for Hunter B. Andrews PK-8 will find 4012 Buchanan Drive worth a close look.
