Why this home stands out
What sets Monarch Drive apart is the combination of genuine neighborhood calm and practical access — groceries, green space, and quick base commutes all within half a mile. The 1983 build means a solidly established street with mature landscaping, while the 23462 zip code keeps you close to the core of Virginia Beach without the beach-town price premium. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a compact footprint make daily life genuinely manageable.
CAMPUS EAST and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Monarch Drive sits inside the 23462 zip code, a well-established pocket of Virginia Beach that draws buyers who want city convenience without the congestion of the oceanfront corridor.

Lake Edward North Park and Lake Edward Park are both within walking distance, giving the area a greenbelt quality that is easy to take for granted until you live here. Virginia Beach itself is one of the largest cities in the Commonwealth, stretching from the Chesapeake Bay to the Atlantic and offering a range of employment, recreation, and cultural anchors. Families comparing homes for sale in Virginia Beach often discover that the inland neighborhoods around 23462 deliver a quieter pace while keeping every major corridor — I-264, Indian River Road, and Newtown Road — within easy reach. It is the kind of address that earns appreciation quietly, block by block.
