Why this home stands out

Built in 2016, this home skips the quirks that come with older Portsmouth stock — think current electrical, modern plumbing, and energy-efficient windows without the renovation surprises. Three bedrooms, two full baths plus a half bath, and 1,512 square feet of thoughtfully proportioned space make it a practical fit for households that want a newer build without leaving the urban core of Portsmouth.

PRENTIS PLACE and the Portsmouth real estate market

Portsmouth is one of the seven cities of Hampton Roads and one of its most historically layered. The city sits directly across the Elizabeth River from downtown Norfolk, connected by the Pedestrian Ferry and the Downtown Tunnel. Olde Towne Portsmouth — one of the largest collections of 18th- and 19th-century architecture on the East Coast — is just a short drive away, giving the city genuine character that newer suburbs simply can't replicate. Maple Ave sits in the southern corridor of the city, a residential pocket where 2016 construction stands out against a backdrop of older craftsman and colonial-era homes. Portsmouth's walkable waterfront, active arts scene, and proximity to both Norfolk Naval Shipyard and USCG Base Portsmouth make it a natural landing spot for military families and civilian professionals alike. Daily life here means small-city convenience with big-city access just across the river.

What's nearby

Grocery runs are straightforward — Food Lion and Walmart Supercenter are both within a few miles. For coffee, Gosport Provisions and local cafes in Olde Towne are a short drive. The Churchland area to the west adds pharmacy options, fast-casual dining, and hardware stores. Hoffler Creek Wildlife Preserve offers trails and waterfront access for weekend outdoor time. The Portsmouth City Park system adds additional green space nearby. And if you want to cross the river, the Pedestrian Ferry to downtown Norfolk drops you into a full restaurant and entertainment district in under ten minutes.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Two minutes to Norfolk Naval Shipyard and two minutes to USCG Base Portsmouth — the commute math here is hard to beat. A VA loan is a natural fit for this property, and the 2016 build year means you're moving into a home that meets modern construction standards. Three bedrooms give you room to grow, and the half bath keeps the main living area functional when company's over.

For first-time buyers

If you've been watching Portsmouth and wondering when the right property would show up, 1717 Maple Ave is worth a close look. A 2016 build means fewer immediate maintenance concerns than older city homes, and 1,512 square feet gives you genuine living space without overwhelming upkeep. The half bath on the main level is a small detail that makes a big daily difference — and the location puts you close to everything Portsmouth has to offer.

More buyer questions

How far is 1717 Maple Ave from Norfolk Naval Shipyard?
