Why this home stands out
Homes from the 1880s are rare in Hampton, and 1111 Oldfield Street is one of them. The bones here go back over 140 years, which means the kind of architectural detail — proportions, trim lines, and craftsmanship — that newer construction simply cannot replicate. At 1,462 square feet across three bedrooms and two baths, the layout is efficient without feeling tight. This is the sort of address that holds its own story long before you move in.
ALL OTHERS AREA 101 and the Hampton real estate market
Oldfield Street sits in the Phoebus neighborhood, one of Hampton's oldest and most distinctive communities. Phoebus has its own small-town energy — walkable blocks, older homes with real character, and a genuine sense of place. The streets here are lined with houses that have been standing for generations, and that history shows in the architecture and the scale of the neighborhood itself. It is the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23663 with something you cannot manufacture. Hampton is an independent city in the Hampton Roads region of coastal Virginia. It is connected to the rest of the region by Interstate 64 and the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel. Downtown Hampton, the waterfront, and the Virginia Air and Space Science Center are all within a short drive. The city blends deep history with an active, water-oriented lifestyle that draws buyers from across the region.

For different buyers
Base commute and VA loan notes
Joint Base Langley-Eustis is about nine minutes away, and Naval Station Norfolk is roughly eleven minutes out — two major installations reachable without a long commute. VA loan financing is widely used for homes in this part of Hampton, and the property's age and character often appeal to buyers who want something with more personality than a newer build. A VA loan appraisal on a home this old is worth discussing with your lender early.
For first-time buyers
A three-bedroom, two-bath home built in 1882 gives first-time buyers something that is genuinely hard to find — real age, real detail, and a footprint that works. At 1,462 square feet, the layout covers the essentials without overcomplicating daily life. Anyone comparing Hampton homes for sale will notice that historic properties in Phoebus tend to stand apart from the newer inventory. This is a chance to own a piece of the city's oldest residential fabric.
For buyers drawn to character
If you are drawn to homes with a real past, 1111 Oldfield Street delivers. Built in 1882, it carries over 140 years of history in its structure. The Phoebus neighborhood amplifies that — older streets, older homes, and a walkable scale that feels nothing like a subdivision. Buyers comparing homes for sale in Hampton with genuine architectural age will find very few addresses that go back this far.
