Why this home stands out
Built in 2018, this 2,136-square-foot home skips the quirks of older Virginia Beach stock — no deferred maintenance surprises, no dated floor plans. Beach Borough sits in a sweet spot between the oceanfront energy and everyday convenience, and 516 Clara Lane gives you that address with a layout that actually fits how people live today. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a footprint that feels generous without being overwhelming.
BEACH BOROUGH and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Beach Borough is one of those Virginia Beach neighborhoods that rewards people who look past the obvious oceanfront zip codes. It sits just inland from the resort strip, which means you get the coastal lifestyle — salt air, proximity to the beach, that easy-going Hampton Roads pace — without the tourist-season congestion right outside your door. The surrounding area is a genuine mix of long-time locals and newer residents drawn by the neighborhood's access and value. While buyers searching condos for sale in Virginia Beach often focus on the Oceanfront or Town Center corridors, Beach Borough offers something a little different: a quieter residential feel with the same short drives to everything that makes Virginia Beach worth living in. Virginia Beach as a city brings the full package — a robust economy, a strong military presence anchored by NAS Oceana, miles of coastline, and a parks system that punches above its weight. Beach Borough plugs you right into all of it.

Fitness options are unusually dense here — The Heart Space, Corrective Kinesiology Health and Fitness, and GoodGood Studio are all within three-tenths of a mile.

For different buyers
For military families relocating
NAS Oceana is six minutes away, and Dam Neck Annex is eight — that's about as dialed-in as a Virginia Beach address gets for dual-base households. A VA loan pairs naturally with a 2018-built home like this one: no major repair concerns, solid construction, and BAH rates in this area that align well with the price range. Less commute stress means more time at home.
For families upgrading
If you've outgrown your current place, 516 Clara Lane's 2,136 square feet and three-bedroom layout give you real room to spread out — without the upkeep burden of an older home. Built in 2018, the systems are young, the finishes are current, and the half-bath on the main level is the kind of practical detail that makes a difference once you're actually living there. Beach Borough's parks and green spaces nearby are a genuine bonus for active families.
