Why this home stands out
Built in 2022, this home skips the guesswork that comes with older construction — systems are young, finishes are current, and the five-bedroom footprint gives you genuine flexibility. Three and a half baths across 3,237 square feet means nobody's waiting in line on a school morning. Culpepper Landing is a cohesive, newer neighborhood, and 605 Big Bear Lane sits comfortably within it as a standout example of what thoughtful modern residential building looks like in Chesapeake.
CULPEPPER LANDING and the Chesapeake real estate market
Culpepper Landing is a newer residential community tucked into the southern reaches of Chesapeake, Virginia — a city that consistently ranks among the most livable in the Mid-Atlantic. The neighborhood has the feel of a place that was planned with daily life in mind: clean streetscapes, newer homes, and neighbors who largely moved in around the same time, which tends to build community quickly. Chesapeake itself is the second-largest city by land area in the continental United States, and that scale translates to breathing room — larger lots, less density, and a pace that feels genuinely suburban without being remote. If you've been doing a city of chesapeake property search and kept landing on this zip code, there's a reason: the 23323 corridor offers solid infrastructure, reasonable commute access to the region's major employment hubs, and the kind of quiet that's hard to find closer to the water. Culpepper Landing fits that profile well.
What's nearby
Two parks — Sawyers Mill Park and Deep Creek Park — are each within 0.7 miles of the front door, which makes weekend mornings and after-school hours genuinely easy. Whether you're walking a dog, running a trail, or just getting kids outside, the options are close enough to be habitual rather than occasional. The broader Chesapeake road network puts grocery stores, pharmacies, and everyday retail within a short drive, and the area's highway access keeps you connected to the wider Hampton Roads region without fighting for it every day.

Five bedrooms and 3,237 square feet built in 2022 — this is the kind of home you move into when the last place simply stopped fitting. There's room for a dedicated home office, a guest suite, and kids who each want their own space, all without the renovation projects that come with older homes. Culpepper Landing's newer-construction character means your neighbors are likely in a similar life stage, which has a way of making a neighborhood feel like a community.
