Why this home stands out

Square footage this generous — 5,383 square feet across four bedrooms and four full baths — is rare in Chesapeake's southern corridor. Built in 1994, the home sits on Forest Mills Road in a part of the city where lot sizes breathe and neighbors aren't stacked on top of each other. If you're comparing Chesapeake homes for sale and need serious space without leaving the city limits, this address belongs on your shortlist.

WOODARDS MILL and the Chesapeake real estate market

Forest Mills Road sits in the southwestern reaches of Chesapeake, a city that consistently ranks among Virginia's best places to live. This corner of the 23322 zip code is characterized by established residential streets, mature tree canopy, and a pace that feels genuinely suburban without being remote. Chesapeake is the second-largest city by land area in the continental United States, and that geography means you get real breathing room — larger lots, quieter roads, and a sense that the city hasn't been squeezed into itself. The surrounding area draws families and professionals who want proximity to Norfolk and Virginia Beach without the density. Homes for sale in Chesapeake at this zip code tend to attract buyers who've done their research and know exactly what they're trading up to: space, stability, and a city that takes infrastructure seriously. City services, well-maintained roads, and consistent community investment make this southwestern pocket a reliable long-term address.

What's nearby

Daily errands are straightforward from Forest Mills Road. Grocery options, pharmacies, and retail are accessible along the Battlefield Boulevard and Cedar Road corridors within a short drive. Dining ranges from casual family spots to sit-down restaurants nearby. Chesapeake City Park, one of the region's largest municipal parks, offers walking trails, athletic fields, and open green space. The Chesapeake Arboretum is another local gem for outdoor time. Interstate 64 access connects you to the broader Hampton Roads metro — Virginia Beach to the east, Norfolk to the north — keeping the whole region within practical reach on a regular basis.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

At 12 minutes from USCG Finance Center Chesapeake and 24 minutes from Norfolk Naval Shipyard, 709 Forest Mills Road works well for service members who need flexibility across duty stations. A VA loan can make a home this size more accessible than many buyers expect, and four full baths means the whole household has room during those busy morning routines.

For families upgrading

Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Hickory High School and homes for sale zoned for Southeastern Elementary School will find 709 Forest Mills Road worth a close look. At 5,383 square feet with four bedrooms and four full baths, there's genuine room for everyone — dedicated spaces for homework, guests, hobbies, and the kind of everyday life that a smaller home simply can't accommodate.
