Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms under one roof is genuinely rare at this square footage, and Lancelot Drive delivers exactly that. Built in 1975, the home carries the solid construction of that era — larger lot footprints, generous room proportions, and a layout that separates living and sleeping spaces in a way that newer, open-concept builds often sacrifice. Two and a half baths means morning routines don't become a bottleneck, even with a full house.
WOODS OF AVALON and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Lancelot Drive sits in the inland southwestern pocket of Virginia Beach, a part of the city that trades oceanfront energy for everyday livability. Streets here are quiet and tree-lined, with single-family homes on established lots that give each yard real breathing room. The surrounding area has a settled, community feel — neighbors tend to stay, and the sidewalks see actual foot traffic. This corner of Virginia Beach homes for sale tends to attract buyers who want a full-size house without the premium that waterfront zip codes command. Virginia Beach itself is one of the largest cities by land area in the country, which means you get genuine suburban calm while still being connected to the region's employment, dining, and recreation corridors. The 23464 zip code covers a broad swath of this western Virginia Beach territory, and it consistently draws families and dual-income households who prioritize square footage, school-zone access, and commute times to the Hampton Roads military and federal employment base.
