Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 440 Bernice Place apart is the combination of a compact, manageable lot and a surprisingly generous four-bedroom layout — rare for a home of this era and square footage. Add a half-bath that keeps morning routines running smoothly, a location that puts two military installations within a quarter-hour, and a walkable cluster of parks, fitness centers, and eateries right outside the door, and the picture becomes clear.

PRINCESS ANNE PLAZA and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Bernice Place sits in a quiet residential pocket of west-central Virginia Beach, a part of the city where mid-century ranch-style streets give way to mature trees and well-kept yards. The surrounding area has a genuine neighborhood feel — neighbors know each other, and the streets stay calm enough that an evening walk to Plaza Methodist Park or Bow Creek Stormwater Park feels completely natural. Virginia Beach itself is one of the largest cities by land area in the entire country, yet this corner of it manages to feel unhurried. You're well inside the city's core, so commutes to employment corridors along Virginia Beach Boulevard or Independence Boulevard are straightforward. The oceanfront is roughly a twenty-minute drive east, and the broader resort strip is close enough for a weekend afternoon without being close enough to bring the crowds to your doorstep. It's the kind of address that gives you access to everything Virginia Beach offers while keeping the immediate surroundings genuinely livable.

What's nearby

Daily errands barely require a car. Dollar General is 0.3 miles out, and Harris Teeter is under a mile for a full grocery run. When you want something different for dinner, Jerrrk Time Caribbean Cuisine Restaurant is just 0.3 miles away, and Krazy Trompos is a short four-tenths of a mile for something with a Latin flair. Morning coffee is easy — Wawa is 0.4 miles away. For fitness, Bow Creek Recreation Center, Unify Health & Fitness Studio, and UrLife Now Fitness are all clustered within half a mile. Lineberry Park rounds out the green space options at 0.6 miles.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

NAS Oceana is a six-minute drive from 440 Bernice Place, and Dam Neck Annex is reachable in about fourteen. That kind of proximity makes PCS planning considerably less stressful — you're close enough for a quick gate-to-door commute without living directly under the flight pattern. A VA loan can make this four-bedroom layout even more accessible for qualifying service members and veterans.

For first-time buyers

Four bedrooms and two and a half baths in Virginia Beach at a 1,680-square-foot footprint is a practical starting point — enough room to grow without the overhead of a sprawling property. The 1962 build means solid bones and a mature neighborhood rather than a brand-new development still finding its identity. Parks, a recreation center, and grocery options are all within walking distance, which keeps daily life simple from day one.
