Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What separates 1511 Lasalle Avenue from most homes in this price range is the raw proximity to Norfolk Naval Shipyard — we're talking a two-minute drive, which is genuinely rare. Add a four-bedroom footprint in a city where that square footage goes a long way, and you have a mid-century property that punches well above its size for anyone whose daily life revolves around the shipyard or the waterfront.

PRENTIS PARK and the Portsmouth real estate market

Lasalle Avenue sits in Portsmouth, Virginia, a working waterfront city on the southern bank of the Elizabeth River with a personality all its own. The surrounding blocks carry the architectural character of the 1950s and 60s — solid brick construction, mature trees lining the streets, and lots that give neighbors room to breathe without sprawling into the suburbs. Portsmouth is one of Hampton Roads' most historically layered cities, home to the oldest naval hospital in the country and a downtown waterfront district that has been steadily reinvesting in itself. The Olde Towne historic district is just a short drive away, offering cobblestone streets, independent restaurants, and a ferry connection across the river to Norfolk's waterfront. For anyone searching for Portsmouth VA homes near Norfolk Naval Shipyard, this address is about as direct as it gets — no highway required, no long commute to factor into your morning. The city sits within easy reach of the broader Hampton Roads metro while maintaining a distinct, grounded neighborhood feel.

What's nearby

Day-to-day errands are straightforward from Lasalle Avenue. Grocery options, pharmacies, and gas stations are all within a short drive along the main corridors heading into central Portsmouth. The Elizabeth River Trail system connects pedestrians and cyclists to the waterfront, and the Olde Towne district offers a rotating mix of local dining and coffee spots worth exploring on weekends. USCG Base Portsmouth is also just two minutes away, making this address unusually convenient for households with ties to either installation. Downtown Norfolk is accessible via the Midtown Tunnel or the Passenger Ferry from the Portsmouth waterfront.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Two minutes to Norfolk Naval Shipyard. Two minutes to USCG Base Portsmouth. For a military household, that kind of proximity changes daily life in a real way — shorter commutes, more time at home, and a location that holds its relevance across multiple duty stations. A VA loan can make this four-bedroom home even more accessible; the math on using your benefit here is worth a close look.

For first-time buyers

A four-bedroom, 1,900-square-foot home built in 1960 gives first-time buyers something increasingly hard to find: genuine space at a Portsmouth address that's close to major employment centers. The mid-century bones are solid, the lot is established, and the location near Norfolk Naval Shipyard means strong long-term demand in the surrounding area — a reassuring foundation for a first purchase.
