by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

This 3,209-square-foot home offers genuine room to spread out. Five bedrooms mean flexible space for a home office, guest room, or hobby area. The layout spans a full generation of living, with plenty of storage and a solid foundation. You're in a neighborhood where homes for sale in 23602 tend to offer more square footage per dollar than newer builds nearby.

WENDWOOD and the Newport News real estate market

Fitzhugh Drive sits in a quiet, tree-lined section of Newport News where single-family homes anchor tree-lined blocks. The neighborhood has the feel of an established community—mature landscaping, wide streets, and neighbors who've put down roots. Newport News itself is a working waterfront city with deep military ties. You're minutes from the Peninsula, close enough to Hampton and Norfolk for weekend outings, yet far enough to enjoy a slower pace. Daily life is easy: grocery stores, restaurants, and parks are all within walking or a short drive. If you're comparing Newport News homes for sale, note that this zip code offers good access to both major employment centers and outdoor recreation.

What's nearby

You're steps from OKINII HIBACHI & SUSHI and Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant. Food Lion and Edible Arrangements sit just 0.3 miles away for quick shopping runs. Starbucks, Raceway, and 7-Eleven are all within 0.4 miles for your morning coffee routine. Planet Fitness is equally close for a gym workout. Young's Mill Park is a half-mile away, and Peninsula Memorial Park sits 0.7 miles out for weekend walks or family time outdoors.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

About eleven minutes to Fort Eustis and seventeen to Langley AFB—a short commute for active duty and civilian employees. VA loan financing is widely available in this area and zip code. The five-bedroom layout and established neighborhood mean minimal renovation needs before move-in.

Room to grow

Five bedrooms give you room for children, a home office, and guest space. Three full baths reduce morning conflicts. The 3,209-square-foot floor plan spreads across a generous lot with storage options throughout. You'll have breathing room to grow without outgrowing the home.
