Why this home stands out
What sets 845 Artesia Way apart is the sheer combination of square footage and location. At 3,740 square feet with four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, this is a home that genuinely fits a growing household without compromise. Add a five-minute commute to Dam Neck Annex, a short walk to Back Bay, and eleven minutes to NAS Oceana, and you have an address that checks boxes most Virginia Beach properties can't manage simultaneously.
LAGOMAR and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Artesia Way sits in the southern reaches of Virginia Beach, in a quiet residential pocket that feels removed from the city's busier corridors without actually being far from anything you need. The streets here are calm, the lots are generous, and the proximity to Back Bay gives the whole area a naturalist character — neighbors walk, bike, and kayak more than most. Virginia Beach is one of the largest cities by land area in the country, and this corner of it leans into that spaciousness. Virginia Beach during winter is genuinely underrated: mild temperatures, uncrowded beaches, and a slower pace that lets you actually enjoy the coastline. The 23456 zip code is one of the city's more sought-after southern addresses, offering easy access to the Oceanfront, the Boardwalk, and the broader Southside without the density of the resort strip. It's the kind of neighborhood where you can feel settled.
What's nearby
Lago Mar Park at Back Bay is literally steps away — 0.1 miles from your front door — giving you immediate access to one of the most scenic natural areas in the region. Back Bay's marshes, trails, and waterways are a genuine amenity for anyone who values outdoor time, and having that right outside is uncommon even by Virginia Beach standards. Beyond the park, the southern Virginia Beach corridor puts grocery stores, pharmacies, and everyday conveniences within a short drive, and the Oceanfront entertainment district is accessible without being in your backyard. Dam Neck Annex is five minutes away, and NAS Oceana is reachable in eleven.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Dam Neck Annex is five minutes from your driveway, and NAS Oceana is eleven — making 845 Artesia Way one of the most commute-efficient addresses in southern Virginia Beach for active-duty families. A VA loan can make a home this size more accessible than many expect, and the four bedrooms give you room to grow through multiple duty stations without outgrowing the house.
For families upgrading
If you've been in a smaller home and the walls are closing in, 3,740 square feet across four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths is the kind of space that changes daily life. There's room for a dedicated home office, a guest suite, kids who want their own space, and a common area that doesn't feel crowded. The neighborhood is calm, and Lago Mar Park at Back Bay is a short walk away when everyone needs fresh air.
