Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms in a single-family home is a genuinely rare find in this part of Hampton, and 2,488 square feet gives everyone room to spread out without the new-construction price tag that usually comes with that kind of space. The 1954 build era means solid construction and established lot character — the bones are there, and the address puts you within a short drive of two major installations and the waterfront.
MERRIMAC SHORES and the Hampton real estate market
Chesapeake Avenue runs along the northern edge of Hampton where the city opens up toward the water, and 4021 sits in that quieter residential stretch where mid-century homes line wide lots and the pace slows down considerably. This part of Hampton has a lived-in, established feel — neighbors tend to stay, streets are tree-lined, and you're never far from a park or a water view. Hampton itself is one of the most strategically located cities in all of Hampton Roads, sitting at the crossroads of I-64, the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel, and quick access to the Virginia Peninsula. The city blends waterfront character with genuine military-community roots, and the Chesapeake Ave corridor reflects both. Whether you're commuting to a base, heading downtown for dinner, or just grabbing coffee before work, daily life is easy here. The neighborhood carries that unhurried energy that's hard to find this close to major employers and infrastructure.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are handled without much effort from this address. Food Lion is just 0.4 miles away for a full grocery run, and Dollar General is even closer at 0.2 miles for quick stops. When you'd rather not cook, Vancosta's Pizza, No. 1 Kitchen, and America's Best Wings are all within 0.3 miles — three solid options without getting in the car for long. A 7-Eleven is a half-mile out for coffee and convenience. For outdoor time, you'll find two public overlooks within 0.8 miles offering water views, and Armstrong Park is under a mile away — a good option for weekend mornings or getting the kids outside after school.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
NSA Hampton Roads is eight minutes from the front door, and MARFORCOM Norfolk is nine — two major installations, both well under a single-digit commute. That kind of proximity is hard to overstate when you're managing deployments, duty schedules, and family logistics. Five bedrooms means there's room for a home office, a guest room for visiting family, and still space left over. If you're using a VA loan, this address checks a lot of the right boxes.
For families upgrading
If your current home has outgrown your family, five bedrooms and three full baths at 2,488 square feet is a meaningful step up. There's space here for everyone to have their own room and still have a dedicated area for work or guests. The established neighborhood means you're moving into a community with roots, not a brand-new development where everything is still being figured out. Parks, restaurants, and grocery stores are all within a mile.
