Our read on this home

At a glance

1706 Martin Avenue is a five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home in Chesapeake, Virginia, built in 2007 and offering nearly 2,500 square feet of living space just minutes from Norfolk Naval Shipyard and USCG Base Portsmouth — a rare combination of room to grow and base access.

Why this home stands out

Five bedrooms and three and a half baths in a single-family home built in 2007 is a genuinely hard combination to find this close to two major installations. Whether you need space for a large family, a dedicated home office, or a guest suite, the floor plan here gives you real flexibility without asking you to compromise on commute time. At under four miles to Norfolk Naval Shipyard, the math on daily drive time is hard to argue with.

SHERIDAN HEIGHTS and the Chesapeake real estate market

Martin Avenue sits in the South Norfolk corridor of Chesapeake — one of the city's most historically rooted communities, tucked right along the border with Portsmouth. The streets here have a lived-in, neighborly feel: modest lots, mature trees, and a mix of longtime residents and newer families who discovered that this pocket of Chesapeake punches well above its weight for convenience. Chesapeake itself is the second-largest city by land area in Virginia, and that scale means you're never far from parks, waterways, or commercial corridors, yet the South Norfolk side of the city keeps a small-town rhythm that larger suburban developments rarely replicate. The area has seen steady reinvestment over the past decade, and the proximity to two Coast Guard and Navy installations gives the neighborhood a stable, community-oriented backbone that residents tend to appreciate.

What's nearby

Daily errands are straightforward from Martin Avenue. A Walmart Supercenter is roughly ten minutes away, and a handful of grocery options sit within a similar radius. The Elizabeth River Trail system is accessible nearby for walkers and cyclists, and the broader South Norfolk area connects quickly to downtown Portsmouth via the MLK Freeway. Norfolk Naval Shipyard is a four-minute drive, and USCG Base Portsmouth is five minutes out — making this address genuinely practical for dual-military households or anyone who values a short, predictable commute to either installation.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Four minutes to Norfolk Naval Shipyard and five to USCG Base Portsmouth — this address is about as close as it gets for active-duty households. Five bedrooms means everyone gets their own space, and a VA loan can make the financing side of the equation cleaner than you might expect. Dual-military couples especially will appreciate having both installations within a single short drive.

For families upgrading

If you've been squeezed into three bedrooms and finally need room to breathe, 1706 Martin Avenue delivers. Five bedrooms and three and a half baths across nearly 2,500 square feet means dedicated space for kids, guests, and a proper home office — all in a home built in 2007 that skips the maintenance surprises older houses can bring.
