Why this home stands out
CROATAN is one of the few Virginia Beach neighborhoods where oceanfront living and a genuine sense of community coexist on the same block. At nearly 5,000 square feet, 708 S Atlantic Ave gives you the square footage of a suburban estate with the salt air and sunrise views of a coastal retreat. Four full baths plus a half bath means nobody is waiting in line on a busy beach morning.
CROATAN and the Virginia Beach real estate market
CROATAN sits at the southern tip of the Virginia Beach oceanfront strip, tucked between the Atlantic Ocean and Rudee Inlet. It's a small, tight-knit enclave — the kind of place where neighbors know each other's names and the sound of the surf is a constant backdrop. Unlike the busier resort blocks to the north, CROATAN has a quieter, more residential feel while still keeping you close to everything the oceanfront offers. Buyers researching this area sometimes come across siebert realty va beach va in their search, which speaks to how well-known this stretch of coastline has become among serious buyers. Virginia Beach itself is a city of genuine variety — from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline to the inland neighborhoods of Kempsville and Great Neck — but CROATAN occupies a rare category: walkable to the water, close to two major military installations, and grounded in a neighborhood identity that larger resort communities rarely develop. Owning here means you're not just buying square footage; you're buying into a specific coastal lifestyle that's hard to replicate anywhere else in Hampton Roads.
What's nearby
Beach Park is just 0.2 miles away — an easy walk for morning coffee or an afternoon with the kids. The Jetty, a favorite local fishing and sunset spot, is 0.6 miles out, and Grommet Island Park is 0.7 miles away. When it's time to eat, Big Sam's Inlet Cafe & Raw Bar (0.8 mi), Rudee's Restaurant and Cabana Bar (0.9 mi), and Docktails VB (0.9 mi) all sit within a short drive or a long walk. Camp Pendleton Gym is also 0.9 miles away, making it easy to keep a fitness routine without a long commute.
For different buyers

For buyers drawn to character
If you've been searching houses for sale virginia beach and keep finding yourself drawn to properties with a real sense of place, CROATAN is worth a serious look. The neighborhood has an architectural identity — coastal homes built with permanence in mind, on streets that dead-end at the ocean rather than feeding into a commercial strip.
