Chesapeake, VA Real Estate

Chesapeake Real Estate Overview

A progressive, growing community, Chesapeake is the third largest city in Virginia. In spite of experiencing tremendous residential and industrial growth, Chesapeake still retains that small town charm.  The Chesapeake real estate market includes both residential and commercial development. The residential areas combine both historical properties and brand new subdivisions.

Some urban developments exist, but growth is challenged by the many natural wonders that surround this area. Some of the nature that surrounds Chesapeake include the Dismal Swamp Canal (which runs adjacent to U.S. Highway 17, through the city), the Intracoastal Waterway (along the western and southern portions of the Elizabeth River which is the source of a booming shipping industry), and a portion of the Great Dismal Swamp plus extensive forest and wetlands throughout the area.
