Why this home stands out

Raw land parcels near major military installations are rare in Norfolk. This location offers proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and MARFORCOM Norfolk without the constraints of an existing structure.

OCEAN VIEW COTTAGE and the Norfolk real estate market

Virgilina Avenue sits in a mixed-use pocket of Norfolk with both residential character and commercial activity. The block benefits from walkable distances to Joan Brant grocery, BIG BOSS BURRITOS 2, and multiple coffee stops within a few blocks. Parks define the neighborhood: Doc's Beach is just a tenth of a mile away, and Community Beach Park and Lake Modoc offer green space and recreation. Norfolk itself is a vibrant port city with a deep maritime heritage and a growing downtown. Getting around is straightforward—major roads connect you to Naval Station Norfolk in about seven minutes. Anyone comparing homes for sale zoned for Norview High School or homes for sale zoned for Oceanair Elementary will find this location central to both zones. The waterfront character and neighborhood density make this parcel an interesting canvas for the right vision.
