Why this home stands out
What sets 717 Hezekiah Little Drive apart is the combination of a recent build year and a location that punches well above its size. Constructed in 2019, the home carries the finishes and systems of a newer build without the wait of new construction. Three parks sit within a half mile, two grocery options are under a quarter mile away, and one of Hampton Roads' most active military corridors is a short drive in either direction. That's a rare trifecta in Virginia Beach.
NEWTOWN CROSSING and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Hezekiah Little Drive sits in a quiet pocket of central Virginia Beach, a city of roughly 460,000 people that stretches from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline to the Atlantic Ocean. This particular slice of the city feels residential and grounded — newer townhome-style construction lines the street, and the surrounding area has a walkable, community feel that's uncommon this far inland. Virginia Beach is known for its military presence, its beaches, and its surprisingly diverse dining and retail scene, and this address gives you access to all of it without the tourist-area price tag. The neighborhood sits close to the Newtown Road corridor, which connects you quickly to I-264, Norfolk, and the broader Hampton Roads metro. Whether you're commuting to a base, heading downtown, or just grabbing groceries on a Tuesday evening, the location does a lot of the heavy lifting for you.
What's nearby
Daily errands are genuinely easy from here. Newtown Baker Crossing and Grand Mart are both 0.3 miles away, and Tienda Latina La Bendicion adds a third grocery option at 0.4 miles — a level of food access that's hard to beat. For a quick bite, Alisa's Food, Subway, and Buddy's are all within two-tenths of a mile. Coffee is covered by Vida Nutrition and Black Rifle Coffee Company within half a mile. When you want to move your body, Southside Barbell, Pink Pearl Gymnastics, and Williams Farm Recreation Center are all close by. Newsome Farm Park is just 0.2 miles away, and Lake Edward Park and Lake Edward North Park round out a solid trio of green space within a half-mile radius.

The walkable access to parks, groceries, and restaurants also means you're not dependent on a car for every errand.
