Our read on this home

At a glance

Meet 4225 Sandy Bay Drive — a seven-bedroom, nearly 5,500-square-foot home on a third-of-an-acre lot in Baylake Beach, Virginia Beach, built in 2005 and sitting just five minutes from JEB Little Creek-Fort Story. Space, location, and a genuine neighborhood feel all in one address.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Seven bedrooms and 5,487 square feet is a rare combination anywhere in Virginia Beach, and in Baylake Beach it stands out even more. The 2005 construction means you get a modern floor plan — the kind of open, connected layout that older homes in the area simply can't offer — while the 0.36-acre lot gives you genuine outdoor breathing room. Three full baths and two half baths mean mornings never become a bottleneck, no matter how many people are under one roof.

BAYLAKE BEACH and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Baylake Beach is one of those Virginia Beach neighborhoods that earns loyalty fast. Tucked into the Bayside district near the Lynnhaven River, it has the feel of a close-knit waterfront community without the congestion of the oceanfront corridor. Streets are quiet, lots are generous, and neighbors tend to stay — which tells you something. Aeries on the Bay Park is just two-tenths of a mile away, giving the neighborhood an easy anchor for evening walks and weekend mornings. Bayville Farms Park and its popular dog park are under a mile out, adding even more green space to daily life. When people searching for homes for sale in Virginia Beach filter by neighborhood character and proximity to the water, Baylake Beach consistently rises to the top of that list — and it's easy to see why. The broader Virginia Beach Bayside area keeps you connected to the rest of the city without ever feeling like you're in the middle of it.

What's nearby

Daily errands and downtime are both well covered from Sandy Bay Drive. TASTE, about half a mile away, handles grocery runs and coffee in the same stop. Green Parrot Grille is right there at the half-mile mark when you want a casual dinner out. Leaping Lizard Cafe, a neighborhood favorite for coffee, is under a mile away. Sculpt Sweat and Pleasure House Point Yoga & Wellness — both within 0.8 miles — cover your fitness options whether you prefer high-energy classes or a more mindful practice. Bayville Farms Dog Park rounds out the picture for four-legged family members.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is a five-minute drive from Sandy Bay Drive — about as close as it gets in Virginia Beach without living on base. NAS Oceana is roughly 16 minutes out, making this address workable for dual-military households. The seven-bedroom floor plan accommodates extended family, a home office, and a dedicated study space without anyone feeling crowded. VA loan eligibility can make a home this size more accessible than you might expect, and BAH rates in this zip code are worth running the numbers on.

For families upgrading

If you've outgrown your current home and are looking at houses for sale in Virginia Beach with serious square footage, 4225 Sandy Bay Drive is worth a close look. Seven bedrooms means every child gets their own room and you still have space left over for a guest suite or dedicated home office. The 0.36-acre lot in Baylake Beach gives kids room to actually play outside, and Bayville Farms Park is less than a mile away when they need more. This is the kind of home families grow into — and stay in.
