Why this home stands out
What sets 661 Green Valley Drive apart is the combination of a mature 1960s build — with the solid bones that era is known for — and a genuinely walkable pocket of Virginia Beach where groceries, restaurants, fitness studios, and green space all sit under a mile away. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and 1,792 square feet give you room to spread out without the upkeep of a sprawling footprint. For buyers who want proximity to NAS Oceana without sacrificing neighborhood character, this block delivers.
LARKSPUR and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Green Valley Drive sits in a quiet, tree-lined residential corridor in the heart of Virginia Beach — a city of roughly 460,000 that stretches from the Chesapeake Bay to the Atlantic Ocean and carries one of the largest concentrations of military installations on the East Coast. The 23462 zip code occupies the city's interior, putting you equidistant from the oceanfront energy and the calmer, suburban western reaches. Streets in this part of Virginia Beach tend to be wide and walkable, with mature landscaping that signals decades of community investment. Neighbors here are a mix of long-term homeowners and military families drawn by the short commute to NAS Oceana and the USCG Finance Center in Chesapeake. Among homes for sale in Virginia Beach, addresses in this zip code consistently attract buyers who want urban convenience without downtown density. Virginia Beach also offers no personal property tax on vehicles for active-duty service members — a meaningful perk for the military households that anchor neighborhoods like this one.
