"Nice, quiet neighborhood"

My husband I bought our first home in the Lake James neighborhood. I cannot say enough great things about this neighborhood. There is a great mix of neighbors ranging from young families with kids to older empty nesters with grandkids. The neighborhood has a beautiful lake with a park and small beach. There are Halloween and Easter parties for the neighborhood kids at the park every year. There are also other social events held at the park throughout the year. Neighbors are always out walking and jogging and are always friendly. I was involved with the HOA when we lived there. They meet once a month and they do a great job with enforcing the housing codes so that the homes and landscaping are beautiful throughout. One of the biggest selling features of this neighborhood is the location. You are only 4 stop lights from the entrance to I-64. You are a quick commute to Norfolk Naval, Little Creek, Oceana and Dam Neck Naval Bases. You are NOT in a jet noise area either!

Pros Cons
  1. Beautiful, affordable homes
  2. NO JET NOISE
  3. Great location to the interstate
  4. Quiet neighborhood with no thru traffic
  1. None that I can think of
