1701 Sawgrass Ln #7-1701, Portsmouth, VA 23703

Why this home stands out

What sets this condo apart is the combination of a compact, efficient floor plan and an unbeatable position for anyone tied to the naval corridor. Two full baths across 1,192 square feet means no sharing the morning routine, and the 2003 construction brings a level of mechanical modernity that older Portsmouth properties often lack. The unit format keeps exterior maintenance off your plate entirely.

RIVER POINTE and the Portsmouth real estate market

Portsmouth is one of Hampton Roads' most underrated cities — a working waterfront community with genuine character, a walkable Olde Towne historic district, and easy access to every major corridor in the region. The area around Sawgrass Lane sits in the northern reaches of Portsmouth, where the pace is quieter and the commutes are short. You're close to the Western Branch of the Elizabeth River, and the surrounding streets have the kind of established, lived-in feel that newer suburban developments simply can't replicate. Portsmouth sits across the water from Norfolk and connects to Chesapeake and Suffolk without the congestion of the interstate-heavy routes. For anyone working in the naval medical community or the NSA Northwest Annex, this part of Portsmouth puts you within a single traffic light of the gate. Daily errands, fitness, and the broader Hampton Roads lifestyle are all within easy reach.

What's nearby

Within half a mile of the front door, you've got two dedicated fitness options: Grind Time Performance & Fitness Training, LLC and Completion Fitness LLC — both under a mile away, so skipping leg day has no excuse. The broader Portsmouth area fills in the rest of daily life with grocery options, pharmacies, and dining along the major corridors leading toward Chesapeake and Norfolk. The Portsmouth ferry terminal, when you want a car-free trip across the water, is a short drive south into Olde Towne.
