Why this home stands out
Homes built in 2016 hit a sweet spot: modern open layouts, energy-efficient systems, and construction standards that predate the supply-chain shortcuts of later years. At 2,941 square feet across four bedrooms and three full baths plus a powder room, 4513 Overlook Place gives every household member room to spread out without the maintenance burden of an older build. Western Branch Reserve adds a cohesive, well-kept streetscape that newer infill developments rarely match.
WESTERN BRANCH RESERVE and the Chesapeake real estate market
Western Branch Reserve sits in the western reaches of Chesapeake — a part of the city that tends to fly under the radar on any city of chesapeake property search, yet consistently draws buyers who prioritize space, quiet streets, and quick access to both military corridors and civilian employment hubs. The neighborhood itself was developed with a consistent architectural vision: two-story homes, tidy lots, and sidewalked streets that make evening walks genuinely pleasant. Chesapeake is Virginia's second-largest city by land area, which means Western Branch residents enjoy a suburban pace without sacrificing proximity to Norfolk, Portsmouth, or Suffolk. The Western Branch area specifically has matured into a community with real infrastructure — parks, fitness options, and everyday retail — rather than the sparse, half-finished feel some outer suburbs carry for years after construction wraps. Overlook Place sits comfortably inside that matured zone.
What's nearby
Daily errands barely require leaving the block. Food Lion is 0.2 miles away for grocery runs, and if dinner plans fall through, Number One Chinese Restaurant, El Puente Mexican Grill, and Il Paesano: Pizza & Pasta are all within a third of a mile. Little Bean Play Cafe is a 0.2-mile walk for coffee and a spot the kids will actually enjoy. Crossings at Western Branch Park is just 0.1 miles out — close enough for a morning jog or an after-school run-around. Taylor Bend Family YMCA is 0.4 miles away for structured fitness, and Kelli's Dance Explosion is right at 0.2 miles for younger dancers in the household.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
NSA Northwest Annex is roughly 11 minutes from 4513 Overlook Place, and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about 13 minutes in the other direction — a rare double-proximity that matters enormously for dual-military households or families who want medical access close by. VA loan eligibility pairs well with a 2016 build: fewer repair negotiations, cleaner appraisals, and BAH rates in Chesapeake that align with Western Branch Reserve's price tier.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and 2,941 square feet means you're not making compromises — there's a dedicated room for a home office, a guest suite, or a playroom without pulling double duty. The 2016 build year means the mechanicals are young, the layout reflects how families actually live today, and you're not inheriting someone else's deferred maintenance list. Western Branch Reserve's sidewalks and nearby parks make the neighborhood itself part of the daily routine.
