Everything is just a bit better on the Back Bay!

This week's featured listing is not just any old beach house—it's truly a family home. Take a look at all of the amenities and imagine settling down in this laid-back Virginia Beach retreat.

The layout of the house is one of open spaces and warm wood accents. The exposed beam ceilings really give a cozy effect to every room. Notice the stonework and wood-burning fireplace in the family room?

The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a center island perfect for doing homework on. This will easily be the center of your home, especially with the breakfast bar and walk-out deck. Oh, look—another fireplace in the day room!

The upper deck will give you the best view of the incomparable Back Bay. Enjoy your morning coffee with a bird's-eye view of the sunrise over the marshes.

Out back, the pool has an enormous deck with room for a dozen loungers and a grill. The incredible view beyond the fence will make this your favorite spot on the entire property.

Don't forget your boathouse for all of your toys. You can dock a sailboat, store your kayaks, and even hang your extra oars and life vests.

Can you see your family enjoying the good life out here? This could be your view on your charming Sandbridge property. This week's dream home is located at 3236 Little Island Road in Virginia Beach and features six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a powder room on an acre and a half of bayfront land. Carder Realty Group has the property listed for $1,850,000.
