Our read on this home

At a glance

A compact 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage in Willoughby Beach, Norfolk — just steps from the water and three minutes from Naval Station Norfolk. Built in 1947, this 960-square-foot home puts beach access, neighborhood restaurants, and two major bases within easy reach of your front door.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 1310 Little Bay Ave apart is the combination of genuine waterfront-neighborhood living and unbeatable proximity to base. You're 0.1 miles from a beach access point, three minutes from Naval Station Norfolk, and four minutes from MARFORCOM Norfolk — yet the street itself has the quiet, unhurried feel of a classic mid-century beach community. That's a rare pairing in Norfolk real estate.

WILLOUGHBY BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market

Willoughby Beach sits at the northern tip of Norfolk, where the Chesapeake Bay meets the Lafayette River estuary. It's one of the city's most distinctive pockets — a tight-knit, low-key beach neighborhood where streets dead-end at the water and neighbors know each other by name. The homes here are mostly modest mid-century cottages, many of them lovingly maintained across decades, and the community has a genuine year-round character rather than a seasonal one. If you're exploring norfolk va real estate and want a neighborhood with actual sand, salt air, and a real sense of place, Willoughby Beach delivers all three. Norfolk itself is a city of real variety — world-class naval history, a growing arts and food scene downtown, and waterfront access in nearly every direction. Willoughby Beach is one of the best-kept secrets within it, offering a slower pace without sacrificing convenience to everything the broader city has to offer.

What's nearby

Step outside and you're 0.1 miles from 13th View Street Beach Access — a quick walk to the water any morning you feel like it. Swell Charcoal Grill and Raw Bar is just 0.3 miles away, making it an easy choice for a casual dinner without getting in the car. 24/7 OV Eats is 0.2 miles out when you need a bite at odd hours. The 7-Eleven at 0.3 miles covers quick coffee runs and everyday grab-and-go needs. A second beach access point at 12th View is also within a short 0.3-mile stroll, giving you options for your daily walk or an afternoon by the water.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Naval Station Norfolk is a three-minute drive from 1310 Little Bay Ave — about as close as it gets without living on base. MARFORCOM Norfolk is four minutes out. For military families weighing BAH and commute time together, this address makes the math straightforward. A VA loan can make ownership here very accessible, and the short drive means more time at home rather than in traffic.

For first-time buyers

If you're ready to buy a house in Norfolk and want to start somewhere with real neighborhood character, 1310 Little Bay Ave is worth a close look. At 960 square feet, it's a manageable first home — easy to maintain, easy to understand, and located in a community where the beach is a short walk away. Willoughby Beach has a stability and charm that tends to hold its appeal across market cycles.
