Why this home stands out
What sets 4704 Wood Stork Drive apart is the combination of newer construction — 2014 means modern framing, systems, and energy standards — paired with one of the larger lots in Jolliff Woods at 0.347 acres. That outdoor footprint gives you real breathing room: space for a future pool, a serious garden, or simply a backyard that doesn't feel like it ends before it begins. Four bedrooms and 2,582 square feet round out a floor plan that handles both everyday life and guests without compromise.
JOLLIFF WOODS and the Chesapeake real estate market
Jolliff Woods sits in the western corridor of Chesapeake, Virginia — a part of the city that feels genuinely residential without being remote. The neighborhood is characterized by newer single-family homes on spacious lots, mature tree lines along the streets, and a pace that's noticeably quieter than the busier corridors closer to the interstate. Neighbors here tend to put down roots, and the streets reflect that stability. If you've been doing a city of chesapeake property search and keep landing in this zip code, there's a reason: western Chesapeake offers a rare balance of suburban calm and practical access to employment centers, retail, and the rest of Hampton Roads. The broader Chesapeake landscape includes waterways, wildlife corridors, and green space that give the whole area a character distinct from the more densely developed cities to the north. Jolliff Woods fits naturally into that context — a neighborhood that feels intentional rather than thrown together.
What's nearby
Daily life is well-supported from Wood Stork Drive. The Chesapeake Square Mall area along Route 17 puts grocery stores, pharmacies, and a wide range of dining within a short drive — think 10 minutes or less for most errands. Harbour View in neighboring Suffolk is also easily reachable for additional retail and restaurant options. For outdoor time, Northwest River Park offers trails, camping, and paddling access not far from home. The Western Branch corridor connects you to Interstate 664, which opens up the rest of Hampton Roads in any direction. Whether you're heading toward downtown Norfolk, Virginia Beach, or the Suffolk employment centers, the on-ramp is close.
