Kempsville Homes for Sale in Virginia Beach, VA
Kempsville is the historic crossroads at Princess Anne Road and Kempsville Road, and in REIN the name covers a cluster of subdivisions around it in ZIPs 23462 and 23464: Kempsville Lake, Kempsville Greens, Kempsville Colony and Kempsville Crossing. The mix is heavier on attached homes than most of the city. Of 65 sales in the last two years, 53 were townhomes or condos, and 40 came from Kempsville Lake alone. Build years run from the early 1970s to the early 1990s, with 1984 the median. Lakes and ponds are a real feature here; 15 of the recent sales were on water.

“Kempsville is big, central, and proven — one of those Virginia Beach areas where the schools and the road network explain the demand better than any brochure. Because it's so large, 'Kempsville' spans several genuinely different micro-markets; the comps that matter are the ones on your street, not across the area.”

Living in Kempsville
Kempsville sits at the center of the city's road network, so the interstate, Town Center and the Greenbrier side of Chesapeake are each a short drive, and Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek is about six miles. Kempsville Lake and the ponds give several sections water frontage. Recent sales were zoned to Kempsville or Point O' View elementary, Larkspur or Kempsville middle, and Kempsville High; confirm zoning by address. No recent sale sat inside a jet-noise contour, none was in a FEMA high-risk flood zone, and most of the neighborhood is in evacuation Zone B.
Two thirds of recent Kempsville sales reported a homeowners association, and the fees were small: the median association fee was under thirty dollars a month, with condo sections paying more. The attached homes trade in a tight band and sell quickly; the detached homes are scarcer, about a dozen in two years, and spread across a wider price range depending on section and lake frontage. For a buyer wanting a townhome near the middle of the city, this is one of the deepest inventories in Virginia Beach. Compare like with like: a Kempsville Lake townhome and a Kempsville Greens house are different products. The live sold table on this page shows both.

Kempsville real estate FAQ
What kinds of homes are in Kempsville?+
Kempsville is one of Virginia Beach's largest and oldest settled areas. It has a wide mix of housing. Much of it was built between roughly 1970 and 1999. Some pockets date to the 1940s-1960s. You'll find mid-century ranches, two-story homes in older subdivisions, townhomes, and condos. The range of home types and price points across its many neighborhoods sets the area apart.
How far is Kempsville from the Oceanfront and the nearest bases?+
Kempsville sits at the center of Virginia Beach. It has direct access to I-264 and I-64. So you can reach most of Hampton Roads with no tunnel or bridge to cross. The Oceanfront is about 11 miles away. NAS Oceana is about 14 miles. Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story is around 7 miles. Naval Station Norfolk is typically about a 25-minute drive, based on traffic.
Are there waterfront and lakefront homes in Kempsville?+
Yes. Lakes are a defining feature of the area. They include Lake Christopher, at about 60 acres, and the Indian Lakes community. The 278-acre Stumpy Lake sits along the southern edge at the Chesapeake line. Some areas offer lakefront lots and homes with water access. There are lakefront townhome and condo options as well. True waterfront homes are few, so what is for sale varies through the year.
What schools serve Kempsville?+
Virginia Beach City Public Schools serves Kempsville. Several schools carry the Kempsville name. They include Kempsville Elementary, Kempsville Meadows Elementary, Kempsville Middle, and Kempsville High. The high school offers AP courses. On GreatSchools, Kempsville Elementary rates above the state average, at 7/10. Kempsville Middle, at 5/10, and Kempsville High, at 6/10, rate about average. Exact attendance zones depend on the home's address. So verify the current zoning with VBCPS before you buy.
What amenities and recreation are near Kempsville?+
Recreation is a strong draw. The 87,000-square-foot Kempsville Recreation Center anchors it, with an indoor pool, track, and gyms. Golfers have the 18-hole Stumpy Lake Golf Course, a Robert Trent Jones design. It sits within a roughly 1,400-acre nature preserve with trails. The city-run Kempsville Greens Golf Course is nearby too. Mount Trashmore Park and Stumpy Lake Natural Area are close as well. The shops and dining at Town Center round out the everyday needs.
What is the Kempsville housing market like?+
Kempsville is a settled, in-demand part of Virginia Beach. Its central spot and range of price points keep buyer interest steady across many areas. Well-priced, updated homes tend to move fast. So does the small supply of lakefront homes. The wide mix of listings gives buyers more options than many smaller VB neighborhoods. The market shifts month to month. So check the live market stats on this page for current prices and sales.
