Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

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

At a glance

517 New Zealand Road is a 3,000-square-foot, four-bedroom, three-bath home built in 1985 in Chesapeake's 23322 zip code — offering generous living space, quick access to USCG Finance Center Chesapeake, and a quiet setting near two neighborhood parks.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 517 New Zealand Road apart is the combination of substantial square footage and a location that keeps daily errands genuinely close. At 3,000 square feet across four bedrooms and three full baths, there's room for everyone to spread out. Add two parks within half a mile, a farm market under a mile away, and a pilates studio practically at your doorstep, and you have a property where the lifestyle does a lot of the heavy lifting.

CAROON FARMS and the Chesapeake real estate market

Chesapeake is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast, and the 23322 corridor reflects the best of what that scale offers: room to breathe without sacrificing convenience. The area around New Zealand Road sits in the Hickory district of Chesapeake — a part of the city where established neighborhoods share the landscape with open green space, small farms, and the kind of low-traffic streets that make evening walks genuinely pleasant. Families comparing homes for sale in Chesapeake often land here once they discover how much space — indoor and outdoor — their budget can reach in this zip code. The city itself connects easily to the broader Hampton Roads metro via I-64 and Route 17, putting Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and the Outer Banks within practical reach. Chesapeake also carries one of the lowest crime rates in the region, which tends to be a deciding factor for buyers who want a long-term home base.

What's nearby

Day-to-day life runs smoothly from this address. CoreForge Pilates is just 0.2 miles away — close enough to walk on a good morning. Etheridge Lakes Park sits 0.5 miles out and Emerald Lakes Park is just a bit farther at 0.6 miles, giving you two distinct green spaces for weekend mornings or afternoon wind-downs. When you need groceries, 3W's Farm Market is 0.9 miles away and brings a local, seasonal character that chain stores can't match. Handsprings, Etc rounds out the fitness options at 0.8 miles. Everyday needs stay close; bigger shopping and dining corridors along Battlefield Boulevard are a short drive south.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is nine minutes away, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is reachable in about 21 — a commute pairing that works well for dual-military households or those who rotate between commands. A VA loan can make the math on a 3,000-square-foot home like this one work harder than many buyers expect, and Chesapeake's 23322 area consistently draws service members looking for space and stability.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and three full baths at 3,000 square feet means everyone gets a door to close — and room left over for a dedicated workspace or playroom. Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Hickory High School and homes for sale zoned for Southeastern Elementary School will find this address sits squarely in that attendance zone, making the school question an easy checkbox on a longer list of priorities.
