Why this home stands out
A 2006 build in an established Norfolk neighborhood, 1009 Bland Street gives you genuine space — five bedrooms and three full baths across nearly 2,900 square feet. That kind of room is hard to find at this size in the city proper. The layout works equally well for large families, multi-generational living, or anyone who simply wants a dedicated home office, guest room, and still have bedrooms to spare.
NORVIEW and the Norfolk real estate market
Norview is one of Norfolk's longer-established residential corridors — a grid-style neighborhood with a mix of mid-century homes and newer construction that gives the area an unpretentious, lived-in character. Streets are lined with mature trees, and neighbors tend to stick around, which creates a genuine sense of community. If you've been browsing houses for sale in Norfolk VA and want something with real neighborhood texture rather than a cookie-cutter subdivision feel, Norview is worth your attention. The area sits in the eastern part of the city, within Norfolk city limits, and connects easily to the broader Hampton Roads metro via I-64 and Tidewater Drive. Daily errands, dining, and fitness options are all close by, and the drive to the waterfront or downtown Norfolk is manageable without highway stress. For families and professionals alike, Norview offers a practical, grounded place to put down roots in a city that continues to grow.
