4996 Rugby Rd, Virginia Beach, VA 23464

Why this home stands out

What sets 4996 Rugby Road apart is its combination of compact, manageable square footage and an outsized location advantage. Two grocery stores sit within half a mile, a pocket park is just down the street, and both USCG Finance Center Chesapeake and NAS Oceana are reachable without ever touching a highway. For a 1980-built single-family home in this corridor, that kind of everyday accessibility is hard to replicate.

ROSEMONT FOREST and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Rugby Road sits in the inland western reaches of Virginia Beach, a city that stretches from the Atlantic shoreline all the way to the Great Dismal Swamp — and this corner of it trades ocean views for something equally valuable: practical, walkable infrastructure. The surrounding streets are lined with mature trees and established single-family homes from the late 1970s and early 1980s, giving the area a settled, neighborhood feel rather than a subdivision-fresh one. Rosemont Forest is the broader community context here, a grid of quiet residential blocks that connects seamlessly to Ferrell Parkway's commercial corridor. Among Virginia Beach homes for sale, properties in this pocket tend to attract buyers who want city amenities without city congestion. Virginia Beach itself offers one of the most diverse lifestyle menus in Hampton Roads — oceanfront recreation, extensive trail networks, a thriving restaurant scene, and strong employment anchors in both the military and tech sectors.

What's nearby

Everyday errands are almost effortless from 4996 Rugby Road. Two Food Lion locations sit within half a mile, and a Harris Teeter is just 0.6 miles out — so grocery runs rarely require planning. For coffee, a Wawa is 0.5 miles away and a Starbucks just beyond that. Dining options cluster nearby too: Mel's Place, Ouka Sora on Ferrell Parkway, and New Number 1 are all within 0.4 miles. When you want fresh air, Brigadoon Pines Park is a four-minute walk and Rosemont Forest Park is just slightly farther. Families comparing homes for sale in 23464 will find this level of walkable convenience genuinely uncommon for an inland Virginia Beach address.
