Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

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

At a glance

Meet 408 Hobart Ave — a 1944-built, four-bedroom, three-bath home with 2,410 square feet sitting less than a block from the water in one of Virginia Beach's most walkable coastal pockets, and just five minutes from Dam Neck Annex.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 408 Hobart Ave apart is the rare combination of genuine square footage — 2,410 feet across four bedrooms and three full baths — in a neighborhood where you can walk to the inlet, grab dinner without moving your car, and still be on base in under ten minutes. Homes built in 1944 in this zip code carry a solidity and lot character that newer construction simply can't replicate, and this one sits right at the heart of it all.

RUDEE HEIGHTS and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Hobart Avenue sits in the Shore Drive corridor of Virginia Beach, a stretch of coastal Virginia that trades the boardwalk crowds for a quieter, more residential rhythm while keeping every convenience within easy reach. The street itself has the feel of an established beach community — mature trees, a mix of original cottages and expanded homes, neighbors who wave from porches. You're one block from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline, and the energy here reflects that: unhurried, outdoor-oriented, and genuinely local. Virginia Beach is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast, yet this corner of it feels like a small town. Families comparing homes for sale in Virginia Beach often discover the Shore Drive area late and wish they'd found it sooner — it consistently offers more character per square foot than the resort strip to the south. The 23451 zip code covers some of the most sought-after waterfront-adjacent blocks in the city, and Hobart Ave lands squarely in that category.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy here. Grommet Island Park and The Jetty are both within a tenth of a mile — meaning a morning walk to the water is a genuine daily option, not a weekend treat. Waterman's Surfside Grille, Roma Pizza, and Big Sam's Inlet Cafe & Raw Bar are all within three-tenths of a mile, so dinner plans are rarely complicated. Prise's Food Mart handles quick grocery runs at 0.6 miles, and Virginia Beach Coffee Co is right there alongside it. Need a workout? CoreStrength Center is 0.4 miles away, with TakeOver Athletics Shadowlawn a little farther down the road. Virginia Legends Park rounds out the outdoor options at 0.8 miles.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Dam Neck Annex is five minutes away and NAS Oceana is seven — that kind of commute is genuinely rare in Hampton Roads. A VA loan can make a four-bedroom, three-bath home at this address a straightforward move, and the Shore Drive location means your family lands in a neighborhood with real walkability and a tight-knit feel from day one.

For buyers drawn to character

A 1944 build in this zip code means real bones — thick walls, a distinct floor plan, and a lot that reflects the original neighborhood grid rather than a developer's efficiency calculation. If you're weighing homes for sale in 23451 and care about a home that has already earned its character rather than simulated it, 408 Hobart Ave deserves a serious look.

More buyer questions

How far is 408 Hobart Ave from Dam Neck Annex?

Dam Neck Annex is approximately five minutes by car from 408 Hobart Ave, making it one of the closest residential addresses to the base in Virginia Beach. NAS Oceana is roughly seven minutes away, giving military households two major installations within easy reach.

What school zone does 408 Hobart Ave fall in?

Families comparing homes for sale zoned for First Colonial High School and homes for sale zoned for Cooke Elementary School will want to verify current zoning directly with Virginia Beach City Public Schools, as attendance boundaries can change — but this address has historically fallen within those zones.

Is 408 Hobart Ave in a flood zone?

Given the property's proximity to the Chesapeake Bay shoreline, flood zone status is an important consideration — the site's dedicated FloodRisk tile provides the current FEMA designation and recommended next steps for insurance review.

What is the walkability like around Hobart Ave?

Walkability here is genuinely strong for Virginia Beach. Grommet Island Park and The Jetty are within a tenth of a mile, three restaurants are within three-tenths of a mile, and a grocery store and coffee shop are under a mile away — most daily errands can happen on foot or by bike.

Does 408 Hobart Ave have a garage?

Garage details for 408 Hobart Ave are best confirmed through the current listing data or a walkthrough, as structural features on 1944-built homes in this neighborhood vary — contact Tom or Dariya Milan for specifics.
