Why this home stands out
Six bedrooms and four and a half baths in a single-family home is genuinely rare, and 4908 Farrington Drive delivers that space in a Virginia Beach neighborhood that has real character. Built in 1956, the home carries the solid bones of mid-century construction while offering enough square footage — 3,384 in total — to flex for large families, multigenerational living, or anyone who simply wants room to breathe. The lot gives you outdoor space, and the location keeps daily life remarkably convenient.
LAKEVIEW PARK and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Farrington Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket of Virginia Beach, a city that consistently ranks among the most livable on the East Coast. The surrounding streets have that unhurried, established feel that newer subdivisions rarely replicate — mature trees, modest setbacks, neighbors who have been around long enough to wave hello. Lake Smith is less than a mile away, anchoring the area with green space, a fishing pier, and a nature area that draws walkers, birders, and anyone who needs a low-key outdoor reset. Virginia Beach as a whole offers an unusually broad lifestyle range: oceanfront recreation, a thriving restaurant scene, and one of the largest concentrations of military families in the country. That last point matters here — the city has built its infrastructure around the needs of active-duty households, and it shows in everything from commute routes to community programming.
