apache2 localhost refused to connect

I'm installing apache2.4 on Ubuntu 16.04 with a custom cookbook in Chef. I cannot connect to localhost after a fresh converge, and I'm not having Chef modify any configuration files until I figure out why I cannot connect. I expect to see the default index.html landing page, but nothing works. I can ssh into my vagrant machine, but my browser will not load anything from the server. By the end of this I would like to have my own HTML file that I had Chef build in /var/www/html/ act as the landing page for my Apache server.
Below are a few methods I have already attempted:
I have ran wget localhost and 127.0.0.1 always outputs:
--2017-06-21 08:40:05-- http://localhost/
Resolving localhost (localhost)... 127.0.0.1
Connecting to localhost (localhost)|127.0.0.1|:80... failed: Connection refused.
Running sudo systemctl status apache2 in my VM outputs:
Active: active (running) since Wed 2017-06-21 12:17:31 UTC; 31min ago
Running ps -ef | grep apache in my VM outputs:
root 12881 1 0 12:17 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start

vagrant 13125 13109 0 13:08 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto apache
Running netstat -a | grep less in my VM returns:

I have previously attempted to modify the config files in
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
Lastly, I have checked permissions on /var/www and /var/www/html, and they're all 0755
All the above have lacked any form of success. Please help. Before you ask, yes I did restart the apache process after every modification to the server.

Change the Listen 80in your /etc/apache2/ports.conf file to Listen 0.0.0.0:80 and it should bind to an IPv4 socket. Nevertheless, Apache will no longer be reachable via IPv6 in this case.
