Why this home stands out
Brand-new construction in 2026 means you're getting modern framing standards, current energy codes, and a layout designed for how people actually live today — not a floor plan retrofitted from another era. Five bedrooms give you genuine flexibility: a dedicated home office, a guest suite, a playroom, or all three at once. The quarter-acre lot adds breathing room that's increasingly rare inside Chesapeake's established neighborhoods.
