1302 Cass St, Norfolk, VA 23523

Why this home stands out

Homes from 1915 carry details you simply cannot replicate in new construction — think thick plaster walls, deep window sills, and proportions that feel deliberate. This one has held its footprint for over a century in a neighborhood that sits at the geographic heart of Hampton Roads. Three bedrooms, a full bath plus a half, and 1,368 square feet give you real living space without the sprawl. The Berkley waterfront and the Elizabeth River are just blocks away.

ALL OTHERS AREA 13 and the Norfolk real estate market

Berkley is one of Norfolk's oldest residential communities, tucked along the southern bank of the Elizabeth River. The streets here are tight and tree-lined, with a mix of early-twentieth-century frame houses and brick bungalows that give the area a lived-in, unhurried feel. Craig Street Playground is a short walk away, and Berkley Park anchors the neighborhood's green space just a few blocks south. The neighborhood sits directly across the river from downtown Norfolk, making the skyline a constant backdrop. Norfolk itself is a city of waterways, naval history, and dense urban amenity packed into a compact footprint. Getting around is straightforward — Interstate 264 and the Berkley Bridge connect you north in minutes. The light rail's Military Highway corridor and the downtown Tide stations are reachable without a long drive. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23523 will notice how central this zip code sits relative to the whole metro.
