North End Homes for Sale in Virginia Beach, VA
Homes for sale in Virginia Beach, VA · North End is one of its neighborhoods.
Homes for sale in 23451 · North End is in this ZIP code.
North End is the stretch of beach blocks north of Virginia Beach's resort strip. It runs roughly from the low 40s Streets up to 89th Street. That stretch lies between Atlantic Avenue and the Atlantic Ocean. The area is known for its leafy, lane-by-lane layout. Original 1920s to 1950s beach cottages sit beside larger custom coastal homes.
Many are a short walk from public beach access points along the numbered streets. The historic Cavalier Hotel anchors the southern edge. First Landing State Park borders the west. Joint Expeditionary Base–Fort Story lies just to the north, with the Cape Henry Lighthouse on the base. The result is one of the most established oceanside addresses in the city.
It is quieter and more residential than the boardwalk just to its south.

“The North End is our favorite proof that Virginia Beach has a quiet beach: numbered lanes ending at dune walkovers, original cottages beside new customs, no resort noise. It prices accordingly — and the older cottages deserve careful inspection of what salt air does over seventy years — but few places here hold value with such conviction.”

Living in North End
Daily life in North End centers on the beach itself. Narrow, numbered streets end at dune-line walkovers. Most homes are a short walk from the sand via the numbered-street access points. The 31 Ocean district sits just off the boardwalk near 31st Street. It brings shops, cafes, and restaurants to the neighborhood's southern doorstep. Local spots such as North End Pizza on Atlantic Avenue keep casual dining close to home. The Cavalier Hotel adds on-site venues, including the rooftop Orion's Roof and the Hunt Room. A few minutes west, the Hilltop shopping area covers everyday errands. First Landing State Park's roughly 2,888 acres sit right at the western edge. The park offers trails, fishing, and Chesapeake Bay shoreline. Bay and Narrows access is reached via 64th Street. Housing ranges from compact original cottages to three-story custom and new-construction homes. There are also a handful of townhomes and ocean-view condos. True oceanfront lots cluster east of Atlantic Avenue. Commutes run about 20 to 30 minutes to Town Center and 25 to 35 minutes to Norfolk International Airport. JEB Fort Story is next door to the north, and NAS Oceana is a short drive south. The seasonal VB Wave Bayfront Shuttle, Route 35, adds summer transit through the corridor.
North End's housing stock spans nearly a century of coastal building. It runs from modest pre-war and mid-century beach cottages on classic numbered streets. At the other end is a steady wave of tear-down-and-rebuild homes. Those custom and new-construction homes are designed to capture ocean and dune views. Inventory is typically limited and tightly held. The REIN MLS "north end va" subdivision usually shows only a few dozen active listings at a time. They span single-family homes, ocean-view condos, and the occasional townhome. Demand is driven by the walk-to-sand spot, the renovated Cavalier, and the 31 Ocean district. Closeness to First Landing State Park helps too. So does the scarcity of true oceanfront and oceanfront-block lots east of Atlantic Avenue. Spot-built new homes and renovated cottages tend to move quickest. Larger oceanfront properties trade less often and define the upper tier of the market.

North End real estate FAQ
What kinds of homes are in North End Virginia Beach?+
North End offers a wide mix. It runs from original 1920s to 1950s beach cottages on narrow numbered streets. There are also large three-story custom and new-construction coastal homes. You'll also find some townhomes and ocean-view condos. Oceanfront homes sit on the lots east of Atlantic Avenue. Many older cottages have been renovated or rebuilt as spot-built custom homes.
How far is North End from the Oceanfront and the nearest base?+
North End sits right on the Oceanfront. Its streets run between Atlantic Avenue and the beach, with public access points along the numbered streets. So most homes are a short walk to the sand. Joint Expeditionary Base–Fort Story is just to the north at Cape Henry. Naval Air Station Oceana is a short drive south. Town Center is roughly 20 to 30 minutes away, and Norfolk International Airport about 25 to 35 minutes.
Are there waterfront homes in North End?+
Yes. Oceanfront homes sit on the lots east of Atlantic Avenue. They front the dune line with direct beach access. Even off the oceanfront, most North End streets end at the sand. So a large share of homes are within a short walk of the Atlantic. First Landing State Park's bay shoreline also borders the neighborhood to the west.
What schools serve North End Virginia Beach?+
North End is zoned to Virginia Beach City Public Schools. That generally means Linkhorn Park Elementary, Virginia Beach Middle School, and Frank W. Cox High School. Old Donation School is the division's citywide, application-based gifted school for grades 2 to 8. Boundaries can change. Buyers should confirm current zoning with VBCPS and review GreatSchools or Virginia School Quality Profiles ratings.
What is there to do in and around North End?+
First Landing State Park sits at the western edge. It has roughly 2,888 acres of trails, fishing, and Chesapeake Bay shoreline. Bay and Narrows access is reached via 64th Street. The 31 Ocean district just off the boardwalk adds shops, cafes, and restaurants. Anchoring the south end is the historic Cavalier Hotel. Its dining includes the rooftop Orion's Roof and the Hunt Room. The Cape Henry Lighthouse sits on JEB Fort Story to the north. It and the beach itself round out nearby points of interest. Note that the lighthouse grounds are on an active base with restricted public access.
How competitive is the North End real estate market?+
North End inventory is usually limited. The REIN MLS "north end va" subdivision typically shows only a few dozen active listings at once. Renovated cottages and spot-built new-construction homes tend to draw strong interest. That is due to the walk-to-beach spot and scarce oceanfront-block lots. Working with an agent who tracks new listings as they hit the MLS helps. Well-placed homes here can move fast.
