Why this home stands out
What sets 1106 Wide Street apart is its rare combination of walkable urban convenience and near-instant access to two major installations — Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and USCG Base Portsmouth are each about three minutes out. Crispus Attucks Park is literally steps away, and a full cluster of restaurants, coffee shops, and fitness studios sits within a half-mile. For a 1990-built home on a generous lot in this price range, the location does a lot of heavy lifting.
HUNTERSVILLE and the Norfolk real estate market
Huntersville is one of Norfolk's older, established neighborhoods — a tight-knit community with tree-lined streets, modest lot sizes, and a real sense of place. Residents here tend to know their neighbors, and the walkable block structure makes that easy. The neighborhood sits close to the heart of the city, giving you quick access to downtown Norfolk without the downtown price tag. If you've been exploring norfolk real estate and want a neighborhood with genuine character rather than a cookie-cutter feel, Huntersville is worth a close look. Norfolk itself is a city that punches above its weight — home to world-class waterfront dining, a thriving arts scene, and one of the largest naval complexes on the East Coast. Huntersville sits within easy reach of all of it, while maintaining the quieter, residential rhythm that makes day-to-day life feel grounded. The neighborhood is part of the broader Norfolk fabric without being swallowed by it.
