Why this home stands out

What makes 1509 Hodges Ferry Road stand out is sheer square footage for the era — 2,718 square feet in a mid-century build is genuinely uncommon in this part of Portsmouth. Four bedrooms and four bathrooms across a single address give households room to spread out, work from home, host guests, or simply claim a corner of the house as their own. That combination of size, vintage character, and dual-base proximity is a rare find in the 23701 zip code.

MANOR VIEW and the Portsmouth real estate market

Hodges Ferry Road sits in a well-established residential corridor of Portsmouth — a city that rewards people who look past the surface. Portsmouth carries real history: a working waterfront, a walkable Olde Towne district, and neighborhoods that have housed Navy and shipyard families for generations. The streets around 1509 have that lived-in, mature-tree character you can't manufacture in a new subdivision. Lots are generous, neighbors tend to stay, and the pace feels unhurried without being isolated. Portsmouth sits across the Elizabeth River from Norfolk, connected by tunnel and bridge, which means you're genuinely central to Hampton Roads — Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Suffolk are all within easy reach. Families comparing homes for sale in Portsmouth often discover that the city punches above its weight on space and value relative to the broader metro. The 23701 zip code specifically occupies the southern residential belt of the city, away from the industrial waterfront and closer to parks, schools, and everyday retail.

What's nearby

Day-to-day errands are straightforward from Hodges Ferry Road. Food Lion is 0.7 miles out for a full grocery run, and MP International Grocery at 0.9 miles is a good stop for specialty and international ingredients. Hodges Manor Park is just 0.4 miles away — an easy walk for an afternoon outside. When you want to eat out close to home, Onyx 757 Restaurant & Lounge is right at 0.4 miles. Fitness options cluster nearby too: JGee Fitness, TIGER Academy of Martial Arts, and Spirit Enhancers All Stars are all within 0.8 miles. Portsmouth Volleyball Center at 0.7 miles rounds out the active-lifestyle options in the immediate area.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and Norfolk Naval Shipyard are each roughly ten minutes from 1509 Hodges Ferry Road — a commute that matters when duty hours are unpredictable. A VA loan can make a four-bedroom home this size more accessible than many families expect, and Portsmouth's 23701 corridor has long been a practical, well-regarded landing spot for military households at virtually every paygrade.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and 2,718 square feet give a growing household genuine breathing room — enough for a dedicated home office, a guest room, and kids who actually have their own space. Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Manor High School and homes for sale zoned for Hodges Manor Elementary School will find that 1509 Hodges Ferry Road sits squarely in that attendance zone, making the school question straightforward from day one.
