Homes and history along the Elizabeth River
Located off the banks of the Elizabeth River, Greenbrier West is a sprawling Chesapeake suburb marked by clusters of residential subdivisions and apartment complexes. Homes in this neighborhood reflect a range of newly built architectural styles, as most of them were constructed after the 1990s. The area’s natural beauty and ecological diversity can be explored at the Chesapeake Arboretum nature site or the Oak Grove Lake Park. The school district serving students in this neighborhood is Chesapeake Public Schools, which receives an A-minus rating from Niche. Greenbrier West is also home to the Chesapeake Regional Medical Center and the historic site of the Great Bridge Battlefield, a remnant of the region’s involvement in the Revolutionary War.

Riverfront real estate and townhome communities
Homes here tend to cluster on cul-de-sacs in residential subdivisions surrounded by dense wooded areas. Two-bedroom ranch styles with brick exteriors and paved driveways can sell for $240,000, while four-bedroom American Craftsman residences built in 2005 can cost more than $550,000. “There are also some homes built around the edges of the Elizabeth River,” says Katie Burke, Century 21’s top Virginia Realtor who has lived in the area her whole life. Some of these five-bedroom riverfront properties can cost close to $1 million. Greenbrier West also has a number of apartment communities – such as The Cedars at Greenbrier and Wimbledon Chase Condominiums – where residents can find townhomes and condos that line winding dead-end streets and are often priced between $150,000 and $300,000.

Hike around the lake at Oak Grove Park
Oak Grove is a 150-acre park comprised of wetlands, hardwood forests and a central 65-acre lake of the same name. Residents can walk the lake’s perimeter along a 1.5-mile multi-use trail that passes through the park’s picnic areas and playgrounds. Two lakefront platforms on opposite sides of the lake might serve as a fishing dock or an observation deck. For outdoor recreation tied to regional history, locals can go to the Great Bridge Lock Park, which sits on a small river peninsula and features an outdoor amphitheater, picnic shelters, a playground and a two-lane boat ramp. This park is located at the original site of the Battle of Great Bridge, which took place on December 9, 1775, during the beginning of the Revolutionary War. The park’s Great Bridge Battlefield and Waterways Museum aims to educate visitors on the battle’s importance and the area’s overarching canal history.

One-stop-shop at Greenbrier Market Center
Gainsborough Square is a neighborhood shopping plaza with a Food Lion grocery store and a Rite Aid pharmacy alongside local dining spots, including Pirate’s Cove, a seafood restaurant, and Osaka Ramen & Sushi. Less than a mile outside the neighborhood is the Greenbrier Market Center, where residents can shop for household goods and apparel options at department stores like Target, Best Buy, Hobby Lobby and Marshalls. “A lot of homeowners also like this area for its proximity to Greenbrier Mall,” Burke says; located less than 3 miles away, residents can go to this indoor mall and browse dozens of specialty shops, dining options and retail outlets.
Battlefield Boulevard bus stops
Virginia State Route 168 and U.S. Route 17 both run through this neighborhood and feed into Interstates 464 and 64, which connect commuters to Norfolk and surrounding Chesapeake County areas. The Norfolk International Airport is an approximately 16-mile drive away and operates flights from several commercial carriers. Hampton Roads Transit runs a fixed bus route with multiple stops along Battlefield Boulevard.
Celebrate the city during the Chesapeake Jubilee
Since 1983, the Chesapeake community has celebrated its city’s founding by throwing an annual Jubilee in Chesapeake City Park. During this weekend-long event, musical guests perform live at the park’s Robert G. Bagley Stage and locals can go on carnival rides operated by Amusements of America. In the spring, the Chesapeake Bicycle/Trails Advisory Committee hosts Bike Fest, an outdoor recreation event that invites community members to explore 8 miles of biking trails while enjoying live music and food trucks.
