Why this home stands out

A century-old home on Burtis Street carries the kind of bones that newer construction rarely matches. The 1919 build date means thick walls, established lots, and a streetscape with real character. Four bedrooms in 1,400 square feet is a practical layout — enough room to spread out without excess space to maintain. Two full baths keep the morning routine moving. And with Norfolk Naval Shipyard literally four minutes away, the location is hard to beat for anyone tied to the waterfront industrial corridor.

CRADOCK and the Portsmouth real estate market

Burtis Street sits in a residential pocket of southern Portsmouth where early-twentieth-century housing still defines the block. The streets here are tight-knit and walkable, with mature trees and modest front yards that give the area a grounded, lived-in feel. George Washington Park is just three blocks away, adding open green space to a neighborhood that already moves at a human pace. Afton Park and Afton Square are both within a short walk, rounding out the outdoor options close to home. Portsmouth is an independent city on the western bank of the Elizabeth River, directly across from Norfolk. It has its own distinct identity — waterfront history, a compact downtown, and a mix of housing stock that spans more than a century. Getting around is straightforward. Interstate 264 and U.S. Route 17 both connect you to the broader Hampton Roads region quickly. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Portsmouth will notice that the 23702 zip code offers unusually short commutes to multiple installations. The city's Crawford Bay and Olde Towne waterfront districts are a short drive north for dining and events.

What's nearby

Day-to-day errands are easy from 19 Burtis Street. A BP station is 0.3 miles out for quick stops, and Food Lion is half a mile away for a full grocery run. The Scott Center Annex Commissary is just 0.8 miles from the front door. For food, Vietnam 81 Restaurant is two blocks away, and Geraldine's Kitchen and Burger King are both within 0.3 miles. Dunkin' is 0.4 miles out when you need a morning coffee. Planet Fitness is half a mile away for a consistent workout routine. Afton Park sits just 0.2 miles from the address, giving you a green space that is genuinely walkable.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about four minutes from 19 Burtis Street — one of the shortest base commutes you will find among homes for sale in 23702. USCG Base Portsmouth is five minutes in the other direction. VA loan financing is widely used in this zip code, and the home's age and structure make it straightforward to assess for that financing path.

For first-time buyers

A four-bedroom home built in 1919 gives you more space than most first purchases in this price range. Two full baths, an established neighborhood, and walkable parks nearby make 19 Burtis Street a practical entry point. Everyday needs — groceries, coffee, a gym — are all within half a mile, which keeps car dependence low from day one.
