Why this home stands out
Most new construction in Hampton Roads puts you miles from anything walkable. At 4340 Pleasant Avenue, the coffee shop, the park, the restaurant, and the gym are all within a tenth of a mile. This is a 2025-built, 2,895-square-foot home with four bedrooms and three and a half baths — the kind of scale and finish you'd expect in the suburbs, delivered inside a neighborhood designed around front porches and foot traffic.
EAST BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market
East Beach is one of Norfolk's most intentional neighborhoods — a planned, New Urbanist community built along the Chesapeake Bay shoreline in the Ocean View corridor. The streets are walkable, the architecture is cohesive, and the sense of community is palpable in a way that most Norfolk neighborhoods take decades to develop. Residents here get a village-style center with local dining, a brewery, fitness studios, and green space, all within a short walk. The broader Ocean View area has seen steady reinvestment, and East Beach sits at the center of that momentum. Norfolk itself offers everything a major coastal city does — a deep arts and dining scene, world-class medical facilities, and easy highway access — while East Beach gives you a quieter, more connected daily rhythm inside it. For anyone comparing homes for sale in Norfolk, the East Beach address carries a lifestyle premium that square footage alone doesn't capture.

East Beach Training Studio and Fit Body Boot Camp are within a couple of blocks for your morning workout. East Beach Fountain Square and Park is steps away, Pleasant Avenue Park is three-tenths of a mile, and Garden Pergola Park rounds out the green space within half a mile.
