Why this home stands out

The floor plan gives you four separate bedrooms and two full baths plus a half bath—useful for a household that needs space. A one-car garage and a fenced yard provide storage and outdoor room. The 1987 construction means you're looking at a home with bones that have proven themselves over decades, not a brand-new build with untested systems.

BEECHLAKE ESTATES and the Newport News real estate market

Chatsworth Drive sits in a residential neighborhood where tree-lined streets and single-family homes create a stable, established feel. You'll find the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23601—quiet enough for daily peace, close enough to shops and services. Newport News itself is a working waterfront city with deep military and industrial roots. The city center and downtown waterfront are about ten minutes away by car. Route 17 and Interstate 64 connect you quickly to Hampton, Norfolk, and the wider region. Daily errands—grocery stores, pharmacies, casual dining—are all within a few minutes' drive.

What's nearby

Chatsworth Drive is about nine minutes from Langley AFB and eighteen minutes from Fort Eustis, both part of Joint Base Langley-Eustis. Local parks and playgrounds sit within a short drive. You're close to shopping and dining along Jefferson Avenue and Warwick Boulevard. The Newport News waterfront and downtown area are roughly ten minutes away by car, offering restaurants, museums, and public access to the water.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Nine minutes to Langley AFB and eighteen to Fort Eustis keeps your commute short. VA loan financing is widely available in this zip code and neighborhood. The home is ready to occupy with no major systems requiring immediate work, letting you settle in quickly without surprises.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms give each person their own space or allow for a dedicated office or hobby room. Two full baths plus a half bath mean fewer morning conflicts. A fenced yard is ready for outdoor play, and the one-car garage provides secure storage for tools and seasonal gear.
