The best of both worlds in Virginia Beach
When you think of Virginia Beach, Virginia, what comes to mind might be a resort city bustling with sunbaked tourists. But Virginia Beach’s quiet farmland community known as Pungo, tucked between North Bay and the North Landing River, is a whole different kettle of fish. “Pungo is unique because it’s a rural area where you can get a large parcel of land in the city of Virginia Beach,” says John Fox, a lifelong Virginia Beach resident, the Student Activities Administrator for Virginia Beach Middle School and a licensed real estate agent. “You can get the best of two worlds in Pungo: a farm type of living with a city type of living just minutes away. You can go strawberry picking on a farm in Pungo and then go shopping only two miles down the road.”
Traditional, coastal colonial and modern farmhouse styles
Homes in rural Pungo are typically single-family homes set on land ranging from a half-acre to 15 or more acres. Home styles vary from traditional with brick exteriors to coastal colonial and modern farmhouse, while sizes range from 1,800 to over 5,000 square feet. List prices fall between $380,000 and $1.7 million.

Kids living in Pungo attend Virginia Beach City Public Schools. The schools include Creeds Elementary, which was rated an A-minus by Niche, followed by Princess Anne Middle School and Kellam High School, both A-rated schools. “The schools are definitely a draw to the area,” Fox says. “The elementary school, right in the middle of Pungo, is the oldest of Virginia Beach’s elementary schools. It’s also the smallest in the city, so you get a real family feel.”

Pungo residents have more than just the beach for nearby outdoor fun.

For even more river fun, there’s Pungo Ferry Landing Park, where folks can fish, launch their kayak or enjoy the river views. Aviation buffs can soak up the history on display in the form of vintage World War I and II planes at the Military Aviation Museum, and kids love to visit the life-sized metal replicas of prehistoric creatures at the museum’s adjacent Dinosaur Park. For those who enjoy a round or two on the fairways, the Heron Ridge Golf Club, a 14-hole public course with unique rolling terrain, is a hop, skip and jump from Pungo.
