Why this home stands out
Square footage at this scale — nearly 5,200 square feet — is genuinely rare in Suffolk's residential landscape, and 4371 Lake Prince Drive delivers it alongside five bedrooms and four and a half baths. Whether you need dedicated home-office space, room for extended family, or simply the breathing room that a large household demands, this 1989-built home gives you the floor plan to make it work without compromise.
LAKE PRINCE and the Suffolk real estate market
Lake Prince Drive sits within Suffolk, Virginia — one of the largest cities by land area on the entire East Coast, and a place that manages to feel both spacious and connected at the same time. Suffolk blends rural character with genuine city amenities: historic downtown streets, waterfront parks along the Nansemond River, and easy access to the broader Hampton Roads metro. The Lake Prince area specifically carries a quieter, residential feel — wide lots, mature trees, and the kind of neighborhood where you actually know your neighbors. Suffolk's position at the western edge of Hampton Roads means you're far enough from the congestion of the peninsula to breathe, but still within reasonable driving distance of Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Virginia Beach. City governance, city services, and a strong sense of community identity make Suffolk a distinct choice rather than just a suburb.
What's nearby
Day-to-day life around 4371 Lake Prince Drive is straightforward and low-stress. Organic Roots, a gym just 0.9 miles away, makes it easy to keep a consistent fitness routine without a long commute. Suffolk's commercial corridors along Route 58 and Harbour View put grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and big-box retail within a short drive. The Harbour View area in particular has grown into a genuine destination for dining and shopping. Sleepy Hole Park and the Nansemond River offer outdoor recreation close to home, and downtown Suffolk's farmers market and local restaurants add weekend character to the mix.

Joint Staff J7 Suffolk is just 14 minutes from the front door, and NSA Northwest Annex is reachable in about 32 minutes — making 4371 Lake Prince Drive a practical home base for service members at either installation. Five bedrooms handle PCS moves with ease, and Suffolk's cost profile works well with a VA loan, giving military families real purchasing power at this square footage.
For families upgrading
If your current home has started to feel like it's shrinking around you, 5,189 square feet has a way of solving that problem.

This is the kind of floor plan families grow into rather than out of.
