Why this home stands out
Built in 1987, this ground-floor condo puts you inside a walkable pocket of Virginia Beach where daily errands and evening plans rarely require a long drive. Two full baths across 945 square feet means no sharing the morning routine. The location is the real story — NAS Oceana is a five-minute commute, Dam Neck Annex is eight, and a cluster of gyms, eateries, and parks sits within a half-mile of your front door.
BEACH BOROUGH and the Virginia Beach real estate market
500 Ocean Trace Arch sits in a quieter residential corridor of Virginia Beach, the largest city by area in the commonwealth of Virginia. This part of the city blends suburban calm with genuine convenience — you're close enough to the Oceanfront to enjoy it on a whim, yet far enough removed to avoid the seasonal congestion. Virginia Beach is known for its military presence, its miles of Atlantic coastline, and a job market that draws both active-duty families and civilians alike. The surrounding streets feel established and lived-in, with mature landscaping and a mix of single-family homes and condo communities. Seatack, one of the oldest African American communities in the country, is part of this broader neighborhood fabric, giving the area a layered history that newer developments simply can't replicate. City amenities — from the Oceanfront boardwalk to Town Center — are all within a reasonable drive.
What's nearby
Everyday needs are covered within a short walk or drive. Food Lion, DG Market, and an Amoco are all within 0.7 miles for groceries and quick stops. When you'd rather let someone else cook, Pizza Hut, Quemar, and Smoke Shack are each about 0.3 miles away. Morning coffee is easy with a 7-Eleven at 0.4 miles, McDonald's at 0.5, and Dunkin' at 0.7. Fitness options are equally close — GoodGood Studio, Coastal Pilates and Yoga, and Corrective Kinesiology Health and Fitness are all within 0.3 miles. Seatack North Park is right there at 0.3 miles, and Tidewater Veterans Memorial Park is 0.7 miles away.
