408 Lee Highlands Blvd, Virginia Beach, VA 23452

Why this home stands out

Single-story living is genuinely rare at this square footage, and 408 Lee Highlands Blvd delivers it on a quiet residential street with immediate access to one of Hampton Roads' most active military corridors. The 1968 construction puts this home in a generation of solid, brick-era builds — the kind of bones that hold up — while the surrounding block has matured into an established, low-turnover neighborhood. Four bedrooms in a true ranch layout means no stairs and no wasted hallway square footage.

PRINCESS ANNE PLAZA and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Lee Highlands sits in the western interior of Virginia Beach, a part of the city that trades oceanfront flash for everyday functionality — and delivers it well. The streets here are lined with mid-century ranches and split-levels that have been owned and updated over decades, giving the area a lived-in, stable character. Neighbors tend to stay, which says something. You're well inside the city limits without being tangled in resort-district traffic, and the Beltway-style access of Virginia Beach Boulevard puts most of the city within a short drive. Virginia Beach itself spans from the Chesapeake Bay to the Atlantic and from the North Landing River to the city line with Norfolk — it's one of the largest cities by land area in the country, and the western neighborhoods like this one enjoy that scale without the congestion. Families comparing Virginia Beach homes for sale in the 23452 corridor consistently find this pocket punches above its zip code in terms of commute convenience and neighborhood quiet.
