Welcome to 5540 Shell Road in the Lake Smith area of Virginia Beach, a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom brick ranch nestled on a 1/3-acre lot surrounded by mature trees for added privacy with an attached one car garage and ample driveway spaces. This one-story home features a new roof (2022) and updated HVAC (heating & cooling) system (2022). Inside, you’ll find an open spacious and functional layout, for relaxation and entertaining.
