Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · LPT Realty

At a glance

A four-bedroom, 1940-built home on 17th Street in Newport News — two full baths plus a half, 1,490 square feet, and Anderson Park literally steps away. This is the kind of address that puts everyday life within easy reach in the heart of the 23607 zip code.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 1230 17th Street apart is the combination of a four-bedroom floor plan in a compact, manageable footprint and a location that punches well above its size. Anderson Park is 0.1 miles away, the Monitor-Merrimac Overlook is a short walk, and both NSA Hampton Roads and NSA Northwest Annex are under ten minutes by car — a rare trifecta for anyone who values green space, history, and a short commute.

STUART GARDENS and the Newport News real estate market

The 23607 zip code sits in the southern end of Newport News, a working waterfront city shaped by more than a century of shipbuilding, military presence, and tight-knit neighborhoods. Seventeenth Street runs through a residential grid where modest, well-rooted homes share blocks with corner markets and local eateries. The area has a genuine, unpretentious character — neighbors know each other, parks anchor the community, and the James River is never far from view. Newport News itself stretches from the Virginia Beach metro corridor up through the Peninsula, giving residents access to a wide range of employers, cultural venues, and waterfront recreation. Families comparing Newport News homes for sale in this part of the city often appreciate how quickly daily errands get done without ever jumping on the interstate. The Monitor-Merrimac Overlook nearby adds a layer of historical texture that few neighborhoods anywhere in Hampton Roads can match.

What's nearby

Daily life is genuinely easy from 1230 17th Street. Anderson Park is a two-minute walk, and Anderson Park North is just 0.3 miles further for more open space. Groceries are handled by Newport News Market at half a mile, with 5 Estrellas Latín Store and New York Pizza / Day & Night Market both under a mile away. When you want to eat out, PISCES JACKPOT,LLC is 0.4 miles away, and Park's Inn Restaurant and Taste of NYC round out the local dining scene within 0.7 miles. The Monitor-Merrimac Overlook — a striking vantage point over the James River — is just 0.3 miles from your front door.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

NSA Hampton Roads is nine minutes away and NSA Northwest Annex is ten — both well within the range that makes a VA loan and BAH math work comfortably for most paygrades. Four bedrooms give you the flexibility to set up a dedicated home office or host visiting family, and the short commute window means more time at home rather than in traffic.

For first-time buyers

If you are sorting through homes for sale in Newport News and trying to find a foothold in the market, 1230 17th Street offers a four-bedroom count that is hard to find at this square footage — meaning you get more rooms without a sprawling maintenance burden. Anderson Park is steps away, corner markets are walkable, and two military installations nearby keep the local economy stable.

More buyer questions

How far is 1230 17th Street from NSA Hampton Roads?

NSA Hampton Roads is approximately nine minutes by car from 1230 17th Street, making it one of the closer residential options to that installation on the Peninsula. NSA Northwest Annex is similarly close at about ten minutes.

What parks are near 1230 17th Street?

Anderson Park is just 0.1 miles away — essentially a front-yard amenity — and Anderson Park North is 0.3 miles further. The Monitor-Merrimac Overlook, a scenic James River vantage point with deep Civil War naval history, is also 0.3 miles from the address.

Is 1230 17th Street in a flood zone?

Flood zone status for this address is detailed in the FloodRisk tile on this page, which pulls current FEMA map data. Given the proximity to the James River waterfront, reviewing that information before making decisions is always a good step.

What school zone does 1230 17th Street fall in?

Buyers comparing homes for sale zoned for Heritage High School and homes for sale zoned for Sedgefield Elementary School will want to verify current attendance boundaries directly with Newport News Public Schools, as zone lines can shift between listing cycles.

How walkable is the 23607 zip code around 17th Street?

Among homes for sale in 23607, this block scores well for daily errands — a grocery store is half a mile away, several restaurants are under a mile, and a park is steps from the front door. A car is still helpful for larger shopping trips, but the basics are genuinely within walking distance.
