Why this home stands out
What sets 769 Drift Tide Drive apart is its combination of a practical two-bedroom, two-bath layout — meaning no shared bath between bedrooms — packed into a right-sized 916-square-foot floor plan. Built in 1994, the home hits a sweet spot between established construction and modern livability. For buyers who want Virginia Beach without the overhead of a sprawling property, this address delivers exactly that.
DRIFTIDE CONDO and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Virginia Beach is one of the most livable cities on the East Coast, and the zip code 23464 sits in the inland western portion of the city — a quieter, more residential pocket that trades the oceanfront crowds for everyday convenience and genuine neighborhood feel. Streets here tend to be established and tree-lined, with a mix of single-family homes and smaller residential properties that give the area a grounded, community-oriented character. You're well away from the tourist strip, which means lower noise and easier daily routines, while still carrying a Virginia Beach address with all the amenities that implies. Grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and parks are all within a short drive, and the broader city's coastline, boardwalk, and recreation options remain accessible whenever you want them. The 23464 area also sits at a practical crossroads of Hampton Roads, putting multiple cities and employment centers within reach without a punishing commute.
What's nearby
Daily errands from 769 Drift Tide Drive are genuinely low-effort. The surrounding area along the Virginia Beach–Chesapeake corridor puts grocery options, gas stations, and casual dining within a few minutes in any direction.

For a longer outing, the Virginia Beach oceanfront is under 30 minutes east, and downtown Norfolk — with its restaurants, waterfront, and cultural venues — is a comparable drive to the north. The location keeps you connected to the full Hampton Roads region without requiring you to live in the middle of the bustle.
