PRINCESS ANNE HILLS and the Virginia Beach real estate market

The neighborhood has the feel of a residential enclave with easy access to the water and parks. First Landing State Park is practically your backyard—just a tenth of a mile away. The area draws people who want beach proximity without the constant tourist traffic. Virginia Beach itself is a sprawling city with naval roots running deep. Getting around is straightforward: most errands are a short drive, and NAS Oceana is about ten minutes away. The broader community balances military culture, outdoor recreation, and a laid-back coastal vibe. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23451 will notice how this zip code blends residential calm with quick access to base, beach, and downtown.
