Why this home stands out
At nearly 1,900 square feet, this two-bedroom condo delivers square footage that most comparable units in the area simply can't match. Built in 1974, the home carries the solid construction and thoughtful floor-plan proportions of that era — rooms with real breathing room, not the compressed layouts common in newer builds. It's a rare combination of size, location, and beach-area convenience under one roof.
COVE POINT CONDO and the Virginia Beach real estate market

Virginia Beach is home to a strong military community, excellent parks, a growing restaurant scene, and miles of Atlantic shoreline. Whether you're drawn here by a PCS move, a lifestyle upgrade, or simply the pull of coastal Virginia, this address puts you squarely in the middle of everything the city does well.
