This is East Beach. A community of well-crafted homes in the tradition of Atlantic Coastal villages. With gracious front porches, the Bay Front Club, nearby deep-water marinas, and pedestrian-scaled streets that lead to the Chesapeake Bay. A master plan by Duany Plater-Zyberk, leader of the New Urbanist movement. And site of Virginia’s first Coastal Living Idea House.

Here, life returns to a simpler time. A time when pedestrians were part of the landcape, and cars were not. A time when housing styles were diverse and interesting, neighborhood streets were smaller, sidewalks were everywhere, neighborhood shopping was within walking distance, and massive expanses of concrete and asphalt were nowhere to be found. A time when life — and everything about it — was simpler. East Beach. A simple life on the Chesapeake Bay.
