129 Fischer Dr, Newport News, VA 23602

Why this home stands out

Five bedrooms in under 2,000 square feet is a layout that works hard for you — room for a home office, a guest suite, or a growing household without the sprawl of a larger footprint. Built in 1970, the home carries the solid construction of that era on a street that sits squarely inside one of Newport News's most commuter-friendly corridors. The half-bath adds everyday practicality that smaller homes in this zip code often skip.

CARRIAGE HILL and the Newport News real estate market

Newport News stretches along the Virginia Peninsula between the James River and the York River, giving residents access to both waterfront culture and inland convenience. The 23602 zip code sits in the Denbigh section of the city — a well-established part of town where mature trees line residential streets and neighbors tend to stay put for years. It's the kind of area where you're close enough to I-64 to reach Hampton, Williamsburg, or Norfolk without committing to a long commute, yet far enough from the interchange to keep things quiet on a weekday evening. City parks, locally owned restaurants, and a mix of independent shops fill in the daily routine. Families comparing homes for sale in Newport News often land in Denbigh precisely because the neighborhood delivers scale — real yards, real square footage — without pushing you far from work or play.
