Greenbrier East
Stumpy Lake, Chesapeake City Park
Stumpy Lake Natural Area, a nearly 1,500-acre green space, highlights the neighborhood’s recreation. The area offers a 1.5-mile looping trail through the woodlands, a large lake for fishing and kayaking and an 18-hole golf course. Chesapeake City Park is a large municipal green space with a wooded playground, skatepark, basketball courts and a stage for local events. There’s also Greenbrier Sports Park which offers tennis courts and baseball diamonds. For those looking to escape the summer heat, the Greenbrier Family YMCA has an indoor and outdoor pool, a gym and a basketball court.Big-box stores and local restaurants like The Egg Bistro
There are a ton of shopping options nearby, including Greenbrier Market Center with Target, Harris Teeter and Best Buy. There’s also a Walmart, Sam’s Club and Kroger in the northwest end of the neighborhood. Residents can head to Central Meats, a local market with a large selection of meat, poultry and seafood. “It’s a massive neighborhood butcher that’s been there for over 50 years,” adds Bryant. “You can get just about any cut of meat you’d want, and they cater as well.” There are also several popular local restaurants like The Egg Bistro with a large brunch menu, Pirate’s Cove for locally sourced seafood and Windy City Pizza for deep dish and traditional pies.Older ranches and new traditionals
Homes here were built after the 1960s and are arranged along traditional suburban streets with cul-de-sacs. There are older ranch-style homes as well as plenty of new traditionals. New subdivision construction is ongoing in the neighborhood, and many of the older homes have undergone recent renovations. Single-family homes typically stay on the market for about a month and sell for $500,000 to $750,000. There are also condos and townhouses available to purchase or rent, with those usually selling for $250,000 to $500,000. Those new to east coast living may need to adjust to the occasional hurricane and tropical storm warnings. Otherwise, expect humid, subtropical weather conditions in the area, with the ocean playing a big part in that.Top athletics at Indian River High
Kids may start at Greenbrier Primary for kindergarten through second grade, then go to Greenbrier Intermediate, which earns an A-minus, for grades three to five, before transitioning to Greenbrier Middle, which gets a B-plus. Students may then attend Indian River High which gets a B and boasts a successful athletics program, with the school having earned state championships in football, basketball and marching band.Chesapeake Wine Festival, Virginia Arts Festival
The Chesapeake Wine Festival takes place each October in Chesapeake City Park. Residents can sample a large wine selection, listen to live music and shop from a variety of local vendors. The Chesapeake Arboretum hosts a popular Autumn Festival every year. May is Bikefest month in Chesapeake, featuring highlighted rides on trails in the city. Events like the Virginia Arts Festival draw tens of thousands to several performance venues throughout the area to enjoy world-renowned performers and workshops, along with activities designed just for kids.Close to I-64 and mass transit hubs
Due to the layout of the City of Chesapeake, with several distinct residential and commercial areas, most residents of Greenbrier East drive to their place of work. But a well-planned street and highway system means relatively short drive times. Norfolk International Airport, one of the largest in the region, is 15 miles north. There are also two nearby Amtrak stations in Norfolk and Newport News that connect with north-south commuter lines.
