Our read on this home

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Built in 1954, this 2,047-square-foot single-family home carries the kind of solid construction that mid-century Norfolk builders were known for. Four bedrooms and two and a half baths give you room to spread out, and the footprint is large enough to feel genuinely spacious without tipping into overwhelming. The lot, the garage potential, and the bones here are the story — not the finishes of the moment.

RIVER OAKS and the Norfolk real estate market

Gabriel Drive sits in a residential pocket of eastern Norfolk — a part of the city where streets are lined with mature trees and homes that have housed generations of Hampton Roads families. Norfolk as a whole is a city of distinct neighborhoods, each with its own personality, and this corner of the 23502 zip code leans quiet and established. For buyers researching norfolk historic homes, the mid-century character of this area is a genuine draw: you're looking at a streetscape that was built to last, not a subdivision that went up overnight. Norfolk sits at the heart of the Hampton Roads metro, giving residents easy access to the region's waterways, cultural institutions, and military infrastructure. The city's deep roots in naval history make it a natural fit for service members and civilians alike, and the 23502 corridor specifically benefits from proximity to both the airport and major east-west corridors that connect you to Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and beyond.

What's nearby

Daily errands practically handle themselves from Gabriel Drive. Target and Food Lion are both within 0.4 miles, and Piggly Wiggly is just 0.7 miles out — three grocery options before you've barely left the block. When you want a quick bite, Skrimp Shack and Famous Uncle Al's Hotdogs are each about 0.3 miles away. Coffee is covered by a nearby Starbucks Coffee Company and Tropical Smoothie Cafe within half a mile. For active days, 1STRING Sports Training and WAVE All-Star Cheerleading are both 0.5 miles out. North Foxhall Playground and Princess Anne Park give kids and adults outdoor space within easy walking distance.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

USCG Base Portsmouth and JEB Little Creek-Fort Story are each about nine minutes from the front door — a commute that makes morning muster far less stressful. The four-bedroom layout handles PCS moves well, whether you're arriving solo or with a full household. If you're exploring a VA loan for a Norfolk home purchase, this address checks a lot of the practical boxes that matter most to military buyers.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and 2,047 square feet give a growing family genuine breathing room — enough space for a dedicated home office, a guest room, or a playroom without anyone feeling crowded. The mid-century build means thicker walls and larger rooms than many newer construction homes in the same price range. Add in three grocery stores within a mile and two parks under a mile away, and the logistics of family life get noticeably easier.
