Why this home stands out
New construction in this pocket of southern Virginia Beach is genuinely rare. Holden Homesite 22 sits in a quiet, emerging community where the pace slows down and the lots breathe — yet Shorebreak Pizza & Taphouse is literally around the corner and two grocery options land within a mile. You get the space and quiet of the Pungo area without sacrificing everyday convenience, and that combination is hard to find among Virginia Beach homes for sale at any price point.
WHITE OAK MANOR and the Virginia Beach real estate market
Pungo sits at Virginia Beach's southern edge, where the city's suburban density gives way to wider roads, open sky, and a distinctly unhurried character. It's a neighborhood that draws people who want room to exhale — front yards that actually feel like front yards, neighbors who wave, and a local dining scene anchored by beloved spots rather than chain restaurants. The broader zip code, 23456, stretches from the Courthouse area down through this rural-fringe corridor, making it one of the city's most geographically diverse districts. Virginia Beach itself is the largest city by land area in the contiguous United States, and Pungo is proof of that scale — you're still firmly within city limits, but the landscape tells a different story. Families comparing homes for sale in Virginia Beach often discover this part of the city late and immediately wish they'd found it sooner. The trade-off for the quiet is a slightly longer commute to the northern beaches, but for many residents, that's a trade they make happily.

For different buyers
For military families relocating
Dam Neck Annex is nine minutes away, NAS Oceana eleven — that's a commute most service members would take without hesitation. New construction means no deferred maintenance surprises, and a VA loan pairs especially well with a home at this stage of its life. Four bedrooms and three and a half baths give growing military families the layout they actually need, not the one they're willing to settle for.
