Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

This 1991-built home sits on a settled cul-de-sac street where you'll find established landscaping and a neighborhood rhythm. Four bedrooms and three bathrooms give you flexibility—a home office, guest room, or playroom without compromise. The layout spans 3,200 square feet across a single-family footprint. You're close enough to commute easily yet far enough from the highway noise that defines busier corridors. It's the kind of property that rewards buyers who value both substance and location.

FOREST LAKES and the Chesapeake real estate market

Forest Lakes is a residential neighborhood of tree-lined streets and single-family homes built through the 1980s and 1990s. Cul-de-sacs and quiet blocks create a settled, low-traffic feel where neighbors tend to stay put. The homes here are mid-sized and unpretentious—the kind of street where you recognize faces and kids play outside. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's largest city by land area, stretching from the Elizabeth River to the North Carolina border. You'll find shopping, dining, and services scattered across the city's many neighborhoods rather than concentrated downtown. Getting around Chesapeake means driving—there's no public transit—but most errands stay local. Interstate 64 is accessible from several routes, making longer trips manageable. If you are comparing homes for sale in Chesapeake, note that neighborhoods like Forest Lakes offer a quieter, more established character than newer subdivisions closer to the waterfront.

What's nearby

Grocery and pharmacy options are minutes away on local roads. Several parks sit within a short drive, including recreation areas with playgrounds and walking trails. Restaurants and casual dining cluster along the main commercial corridors a few miles out. USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is about 11 minutes away, and NSA Northwest Annex runs roughly 17 minutes. Anyone comparing homes for sale zoned for Grassfield High School or homes for sale zoned for Cedar Road Elementary School will find this address in those attendance zones.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

About 11 minutes to USCG Finance Center Chesapeake and 17 minutes to NSA Northwest Annex—short commutes that leave time for home and family. VA loan financing is common in this price range and neighborhood. Four bedrooms and a settled street mean you can move in and stay put without major updates.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms let you carve out a home office, guest suite, or playroom without sacrifice. Three full baths mean mornings run smoother with multiple people getting ready. The 3,200-square-foot layout offers room to spread out, and the cul-de-sac location keeps traffic light and yards quieter.
