McManus/Harvey Wedding

Our stay was amazing. The space was perfect for all of us. The ages of our party ranged from 21-97. We could not have asked for more. The house had everything we needed, including an elevator. The beds were comfortable, and all of our kitchen needs could not have been better accommodated for. The outside living space was perfect including the hot tub. We were but a stones throw from the beach. The final comment from the the neighbors was the best acknowledging that we were the most respectful and quietest wedding party that they lived next too. Oh if I could do it all over again. I would not change a thing. Laurie was able to answer any questions that I might have had, although few, she was able to answer each. THANK YOU THANK YOU> My best Debbie

Stunning place and amazing location

Place was stunning, furnished to feel like home and with room for everyone to relax. Steps from beach where you have endless pristine shoreline. Owners were quick to respond with any questions. Would definitely come back again!

Perfect family beach vacation spot

We loved our stay here. The home is beautiful, clean and spacious. Can’t beat the location right by the beach entrance, on a quiet street and stretch of beach, but quick drive to shops and restaurants. The home was stocked with everything you may need. Listing is accurate and we would highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Laurie Francis

Because we love Virginia Beach so much, we bought a beach home in our own town! My husband is a builder who completely renovated this home and I as an interior designer did the interiors.

Why they chose this property

The North End is the most prestigious and sought after neighborhood in Virginia Beach, and this home is steps from the beach. It offers privacy and many entertaining possibilities, while also giving guests a truly coastal Virginia experience.

What makes this property unique

We renovated this home so that one day we could retire here and entertain our grand kids! We are on the ocean side so my sweet grand children will not need to cross busy Atlantic Ave. and has an elevator should we become unable to do stairs.
