Why this home stands out
At 3,280 square feet, 10 Digges Drive delivers room that most homes in this price tier simply can't. Built in 1967, the home carries the bones of mid-century residential construction — solid, roomy, and laid out for real family living rather than the open-plan squeeze of newer builds. Four bedrooms and two and a half baths give everyone their own space, and the half-bath means guests aren't sharing with the household. That combination of size, era, and dual-base access is genuinely rare in this corridor.
WARWICK SHORES and the Newport News real estate market
Digges Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket of Newport News — a city that stretches from the James River waterfront all the way north toward York County, anchored by shipbuilding heritage and a surprisingly diverse mix of neighborhoods. This part of Newport News, in the 23602 zip code, tends toward established tree-lined streets, larger lots, and homes built with the kind of square footage that was standard in the late 1960s before land got expensive. The area has a settled, unhurried feel — neighbors who have been around long enough to wave from the driveway, sidewalks that actually get used, and a general sense that the neighborhood has weathered decades and come out steady. Newport News as a city offers genuine infrastructure: a regional airport, a strong medical corridor, waterfront parks, and a downtown arts scene that keeps growing. For buyers who want suburban calm without sacrificing city amenities, this zip code consistently delivers.
What's nearby
Daily life runs smoothly from Digges Drive. Patrick Henry Mall is roughly ten minutes away for major retail, a movie theater, and a wide range of dining. Groceries are easy — multiple options including a Walmart Supercenter and a Food Lion are within a short drive. For coffee before the commute, several independent and chain options are clustered along Jefferson Avenue. Riverview Farm Park and Huntington Park offer outdoor space, walking trails, and James River access when you want to decompress. The Virginia Peninsula is compact enough that you're rarely more than 20 minutes from anything you actually need.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Nine minutes to Joint Base Langley-Eustis and nineteen minutes to Naval Weapons Station Yorktown — 10 Digges Drive puts two major installations within easy reach. For military families weighing a VA loan purchase, that kind of dual-base access is hard to find in a single address. Four bedrooms handle PCS moves with kids, and the 3,280 square feet means you're not making sacrifices on space to stay close to the gate.
For families upgrading
If your current home has you bumping into walls, 3,280 square feet is a meaningful step up. Four bedrooms means the guest room doesn't have to double as a home office, and the half-bath on the main level is one of those small things that makes a big daily difference. Homes of this size in established Newport News neighborhoods don't turn over constantly — when one does, it's worth a close look.
