About buying in Portsmouth

Olde Towne Portsmouth (23704) features cobblestone streets and Federalist-era row houses overlooking the Elizabeth River, with active listings typically ranging $250K-$500K. Western Portsmouth's Churchland neighborhood (23703) offers larger suburban homes, top schools, and direct commutes to Norfolk Naval Shipyard. Park View (23707) and Cradock (23702) provide some of the most affordable single-family inventory in the region, often under $200K.
