Why this home stands out
At 1,488 square feet on a residential lot in the 23462 zip code, this three-bedroom, two-bath home hits a practical sweet spot: enough room to spread out without the upkeep of a sprawling floor plan. The 1980 build era means solid construction with the kind of mature lot character that newer subdivisions simply haven't had time to develop. And with NAS Oceana literally eight minutes away, the commute math works hard in your favor.
CHIMNEY HILL and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Chimney Hill Parkway sits inside Virginia Beach's mid-city corridor — a part of town that trades oceanfront flash for genuine livability. The surrounding streets are quiet and residential, but you're never far from the action: Town Square Neighborhood Park is a two-minute walk, and a full Kroger Marketplace anchors the shopping center just 0.2 miles away. Virginia Beach as a whole stretches from the Chesapeake Bay to the Atlantic, giving residents access to world-class beaches, a thriving restaurant scene, and one of the largest concentrations of military installations on the East Coast. The 23462 zip code sits in the heart of that geography — close to I-264 for downtown access, close to the bases, and close to the kind of everyday infrastructure that makes life genuinely easy. Families comparing homes for sale in Virginia Beach consistently find that mid-city neighborhoods like this one offer the best balance of price, commute, and community feel.

Groceries are essentially next door — Kroger Marketplace and Kroger Bakery are both 0.2 miles out, so a last-minute dinner run takes minutes. When you want something ready to eat, Kroger Deli and SNOWFOX Sushi are right there too, with Atl Wings just 0.3 miles away for a casual night in. Coffee is covered twice over: Poolside Cooking Cafe and a Starbucks are both 0.2 miles away, with a second Starbucks at 0.4 miles. Fitness options are equally stacked — Planet Fitness, Body Matrixx By Jewrell, and Powerhouse Boxing and Kickboxing are all within 0.6 miles. For outdoor time, Town Square Neighborhood Park is a short walk, and Dahlia Playground and Pecan Gardens Park round out the green space within easy reach.
