Why this home stands out

Built in 1956, 4240 Battery Road carries the kind of structural solidity and lot presence that newer construction rarely matches.

BAYLAKE PINES and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Battery Road sits in the northern reaches of Virginia Beach, a part of the city that tends to fly under the radar compared to the Oceanfront corridor — and that's exactly what makes it appealing. The streets here are established and tree-lined, with mid-century homes on generous lots that give neighbors breathing room. It's a quieter residential pocket, but you're never far from the energy of the broader city. Virginia Beach is one of the most livable cities on the East Coast, blending coastal access, strong infrastructure, and a military-friendly culture that shapes everything from local businesses to community events. This corner of the city sits at a practical crossroads: close to the water, close to base, and close to the everyday conveniences that make a busy household run smoothly. The neighborhood has the kind of settled-in feel that only comes with decades of people choosing to stay.
What's nearby
Groceries, pharmacies, and everyday retail are within a short drive along Shore Drive and the surrounding corridors. First Landing State Park is just minutes away, offering hiking trails, kayak launches, and some of the most accessible natural scenery in the region. The Chesapeake Bay beaches at nearby public access points make a spontaneous afternoon outdoors genuinely easy. Local restaurants and coffee shops along Shore Drive give the area a neighborhood-scale dining scene without requiring a long commute. Norfolk's downtown waterfront and arts district are reachable in roughly 20 minutes, adding a broader range of dining, entertainment, and cultural options to the mix.

If you've been making a smaller house work for a growing family, 3,800 square feet and five bedrooms is the kind of space that genuinely changes how you live at home.
