BACK ON MARKET DUE TO NO FAULT OF THE SELLER! If you’ve been searching for true peace and privacy without sacrificing convenience, this Grassfield gem is an absolute must-see. Set back from the street on a private driveway, the property opens up to nearly an acre of total solitude, completely enveloped by woods and lush mature greenery. Inside, fresh paint brings a bright, inviting energy to a floor plan built for real life. The layout is a rare find for multi-generational living, featuring two distinct main-level suites. The in-law wing includes its own living room, making it easy to use as a private apartment, a 5th bedroom, or a home office. The primary suite feels like a custom getaway with live-edge wood countertops, dual shower heads, and a custom walk-in closet system. Out back, the property turns into a full outdoor retreat featuring a storage shed, a chicken coop, separate hookups ready for a pool and hot tub, and a massive detached two-car workshop/garage complete with a carport and RV hookup. Welcome home!

Great Bridge, located between the Southern Branch Elizabeth River and the Dismal Swamp Canal, is a historic and suburban Chesapeake neighborhood with a waterfront corridor and a classic main-road commercial strip. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Battlefield Blvd S and Cedar Rd intersection, where local eateries, marinas, and everyday storefronts cluster in steady motion. Great Bridge Battlefield & Waterways History Foundation and the Great Bridge Lock Park set a heritage-and-water theme along the canal edge. Housing ranges from established brick colonials and ranch-style streets to newer subdivisions tucked behind tree lines. Side roads trace creeks and inlets, while Battlefield Boulevard keeps the pace practical. Parks and boat ramps add an outdoors-forward rhythm without leaving town.
