Meet 1015 Colonial Ave #4 — a 1,112-square-foot, 2-bedroom condo in the heart of Ghent, Norfolk, built in 1914 and packed with the kind of early-twentieth-century character that newer construction simply can't replicate. Walkable, historic, and minutes from two military installations.

Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the rare combination of genuine 1914 architecture and an address that puts you inside one of Norfolk's most walkable, personality-rich neighborhoods. At 1,112 square feet, the layout gives two-bedroom buyers real living space without the upkeep of a standalone lot. The 0.02-acre footprint means your weekends belong to you — not your yard — while Ghent's tree-lined streets and independent businesses are steps from your front door.
GHENT and the Norfolk real estate market
Ghent is the kind of neighborhood that people move to once and stay in for decades. Developed in the late 1800s and early 1900s, it's Norfolk's premier historic district — a walkable grid of brick rowhouses, converted condos, independent restaurants, wine bars, and green pocket parks that give the area a genuine urban-village feel. If you've been searching through houses for sale in ghent norfolk va, you already know this neighborhood commands attention for good reason. Colonial Avenue itself is one of Ghent's signature streets, lined with mature trees and architecture that tells the story of the city's early growth. Norfolk as a whole sits at the center of the Hampton Roads metro, surrounded by water and connected by bridges and tunnels to Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and the Peninsula. Ghent sits in the western part of the city, close to the Elizabeth River waterfront and a short drive to downtown Norfolk's arts and entertainment corridor. It's a neighborhood where you can walk to dinner, grab coffee on foot, and still be on the interstate in minutes.
What's nearby
Daily life is genuinely easy from 1015 Colonial Ave #4. Harris Teeter is just 0.2 miles away for your main grocery run, and TASTE offers a more curated market option at 0.5 miles. When you need a quick morning coffee, Fair Grounds Coffee Cafe and Cafe Stella are both within 0.4 miles and worth the short walk. Press 626 Wine Bar and The Public House — each 0.3 miles out — cover your Friday-night plans without requiring a car. Botetourt Gardens, Van Wyck Mews, and the Ghent Dog Park are all within 0.2 miles, making this address especially practical for dog owners and anyone who values green space close to home.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is a three-minute drive from this address, and USCG Base Portsmouth is four minutes out — making 1015 Colonial Ave #4 one of the tightest commute options in the area for personnel assigned to either installation. VA loan eligibility can make a historic Ghent condo like this one surprisingly accessible, and BAH rates for the Norfolk area are worth running the numbers on before you assume anything.
For buyers drawn to character
If you're drawn to homes that have actual history — original proportions, the weight of 1914 construction, a street that looks like it belongs on a postcard — this Colonial Avenue address delivers. Ghent homes for sale at this level of architectural authenticity are genuinely uncommon. You're not buying a unit in a generic complex; you're buying a piece of one of Virginia's most celebrated historic neighborhoods, with the walkability to match.
