THIS IS EAST BEACH

A simple life on the Chesapeake Bay.

-  a waterfront community in Norfolk, Virginia, designed and built in the tradition of Atlantic Coastal villages. Here, life returns to a simpler time. Beautifully crafted homes reflect the timeless architectural character of older traditional Tidewater Virginia homes. Neighbors greet one another as they sit on their front porches or watch the sunset at a concert at the Bay Front Club. 

East Beach is well-located: just a 10-minute drive from Norfolk International Airport (ORF), and a 20-minute drive to downtown Norfolk, major employment centers and military bases. The community overlooks the Chesapeake Bay, where this beautiful body of water meets the Atlantic Ocean. In just 10 minutes you can stroll from the beach at the north end of the community to your boat at the deep-water marinas at the community’s south end. Relax and enjoy. You’re home.

WHY EAST BEACH?

AMENITIES

Life in East Beach revolves around the Chesapeake Bay. One of the greatest pleasures of living on the bay is simply strolling along the beach, enjoying the sand between your toes, the salty air, and the rhythmic lapping of the waves on the shore. The bay’s warm waters and gentle waves create an ideal playground for children and make swimming both pleasurable and safe. When not at the beach, you may find yourself relaxing by the pool at the Bay Front Club, grabbing a bite in Village Square, or listening to a concert at the Stage Pavilion. Come, discover the resort lifestyle East Beach has to offer.

PLANNING & ARCHITECTURE

The attention to detail – both in the Master Plan and architectural style – has made East Beach one of the best neighborhoods in America. East Beach is a “Traditional Neighborhood Development” (TND), designed and built in the style of traditional Atlantic coastal villages. Here, you will find streets and sidewalks that weave around trees, and homes that reflect the classic detail and proportion of Tidewater Virginia architecture.
