Located only seven miles west of Downtown Virginia Beach, the North Central neighborhood has a distinct suburban character, and the Lynnhaven River and its tributaries create one of the highest concentrations of waterfront property in the city. Here, you find an elegant mix of architectural styles with some of the neighborhood's most prestigious mansions and villas overlooking the bay. Rocky points and coves distinguish this tight-knit community, where residents enjoy a close-knit community and attractive conveniences.
Families come to North Central to enjoy beautiful homes hidden behind wooded streets and spacious yards where their children can play, but the waterfront areas also attract renters of all walks of life who simply wish to enjoy bayfront living. Living in North Central puts the festivals and beaches of the Virginia Beach area at your fingertips, while the neighborhood itself provides a quiet atmosphere away from the sand and buzz.
