Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

1712 Tarrall Avenue is a four-bedroom, two-bath home in Norfolk, Virginia, built in 1940 and offering 1,507 square feet of living space. The 23509 zip code puts you close to two major installations and a walkable stretch of everyday conveniences. There is a lot to like about this address.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Homes from the 1940s carry a solidity that newer construction rarely matches — thick plaster walls, hardwood-era bones, and lot sizes that feel generous by today's standards. Four bedrooms in 1,507 square feet means every room earns its keep. Two full baths keep morning routines running smoothly. The location inside the 23509 zip code lands you within a short drive of Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and USCG Base Portsmouth, while keeping grocery runs and a neighborhood park just steps away.

LAFAYETTE SHORES and the Norfolk real estate market

Tarrall Avenue sits in a quiet residential pocket of Norfolk that developed steadily through the mid-twentieth century. The streets here are lined with brick and frame homes from the 1930s through the 1950s, giving the area a settled, established feel. Mature trees shade the sidewalks, and neighbors tend to know each other by name. Lakewood Park is only two-tenths of a mile away, which means green space is genuinely part of daily life — not just a line on a map. The broader Norfolk city context matters too. Norfolk is the largest city in Hampton Roads and the anchor of a metro area that stretches across the Chesapeake Bay region. Interstate 264 and Hampton Boulevard connect this part of the city to downtown Norfolk in minutes. The Elizabeth River crossings — the Downtown Tunnel and the Midtown Tunnel — link Norfolk to Portsmouth quickly. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Norfolk will notice that the 23509 zip code sits at a practical crossroads: close to the water, close to the bases, and close to the everyday commerce that makes a neighborhood livable.

What's nearby

Daily errands are easy from 1712 Tarrall Avenue. Food Lion is just 0.3 miles away for a full grocery run, and Golden Pizzeria, Luther Arcree, and Golden City III are all within two-tenths of a mile for a quick dinner out. Lakewood Park is the same short walk — a genuine neighborhood green space. Roland Park Playground is 0.7 miles away and adds another outdoor option. Chesapeake Athletic Club is 0.6 miles out for fitness. La Botica Hispana and Angel Food Mart round out the grocery options within a mile. Forkin' to Fitness LLC is about a mile away for a different kind of wellness stop.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about seven minutes away by car, and USCG Base Portsmouth is eight minutes out. VA loan financing is widely used in this part of Norfolk, and the 23509 zip code is well-understood by lenders who work with that program regularly. Four bedrooms give you real flexibility from day one. The short commute window is one of the strongest practical arguments for this address.

For first-time buyers

A 1940s-built, four-bedroom home in an established Norfolk neighborhood is a meaningful amount of house for a first purchase. Two full baths reduce the daily friction that one-bath homes create. Lakewood Park is two-tenths of a mile away on foot. Food Lion is 0.3 miles out. The walkable errands and short drives to major employers make this the kind of address that holds its practical value well over time.
