Why this home stands out
What sets 700 Hemlock Crescent apart is the combination of five true bedrooms, three full baths, and a 0.277-acre lot in an established neighborhood where mature trees and generous yards are the norm. The 1969 construction means solid bones and real square footage — not the compressed floor plans common in newer builds — giving you room to spread out, host, and actually live.
BELLAMY MANOR and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Kempsville Colony sits in the heart of Virginia Beach, one of the city's most enduring residential pockets. The neighborhood took shape in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and that era left behind a streetscape of mature trees, wide lots, and homes with genuine architectural character. Crescent-shaped streets like Hemlock keep through-traffic minimal, so the pace here feels unhurried even though you're minutes from everything. Virginia Beach is a city of distinct neighborhoods, and Kempsville Colony earns its reputation as one of the more livable inland communities — close enough to the oceanfront to enjoy it, far enough away to avoid the seasonal congestion. The surrounding Kempsville area has grown into a full-service corridor with groceries, fitness options, dining, and green space all within a short drive or walk. Residents here tend to stay a long time, and it shows in the way the neighborhood is maintained.
