by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

This 1985-built home sits in a location that's hard to beat for base commuters. You're looking at a genuine five-minute drive to NAS Oceana and twelve minutes to Dam Neck Annex. The layout gives you three bedrooms and two full baths plus a half bath across 1,470 square feet. Virginia Beach homes for sale at this proximity to the base are uncommon—most require a longer drive. The neighborhood is established and walkable, with everyday conveniences within a few blocks.

LYNN RIVER COMMON and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Benlea Court sits in a mature, tree-lined neighborhood where most homes date from the 1980s and early 1990s. The streets are quiet and residential, with a real sense of community. You'll find a mix of single-family homes and modest-sized lots that feel lived-in and stable. Virginia Beach itself is a sprawling coastal city of over 450,000 people, home to Naval Station Norfolk and two major naval air stations. Getting around is straightforward—major roads like General Booth Boulevard and London Bridge Road connect you to shopping, dining, and the beach. The city balances military presence with civilian neighborhoods, parks, and waterfront access. If you are comparing homes for sale in Virginia Beach, note that this address's proximity to NAS Oceana is a major draw. Schools, shopping, and recreational areas are all within a short drive. The broader area has a stable, working-class character with steady investment in infrastructure and services.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy here. Kenstock Park is just a third of a mile away, with playground space and open grass. London Bridge Park and a basketball court sit about half a mile out. For coffee, you've got 7-Eleven, Wawa, and Tropical Smoothie Cafe all within walking distance. Dining runs from EJ's Kitchen just two blocks away to Iggles Cheesesteaks & Burgers and Domino's Pizza nearby. Groceries are covered by Food Lion, American Asian Food Market, and 中国小超市 all within a mile. Fitness options include TrainVB, Performance Pilates LLC, and Studio 8 Hot Yoga, each less than a mile away.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

NAS Oceana is five minutes away—one of the shortest commutes in the Virginia Beach market. Dam Neck Annex runs twelve minutes.

Room to grow

Three bedrooms give you space to spread out, and the 1,470 square feet layout flows well across a single level. The half bath is a bonus for busy mornings. Kenstock Park sits just a third of a mile away—perfect for outdoor time. Storage and a practical floor plan mean you won't outgrow this home quickly.
