Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Most homes near Norfolk Naval Shipyard are decades old. 20 Cushing Street was built in 2020, so the systems, finishes, and layout reflect current standards. You get four bedrooms and three full baths across 2,300 square feet. That combination — new construction scale, established neighborhood location, and a four-minute drive to the Shipyard — is genuinely rare on this side of Portsmouth.

CRADOCK and the Portsmouth real estate market

Cushing Street sits in a working-class Portsmouth neighborhood with a grid of mature streets and a mix of older and newer homes. The blocks here are walkable and close-knit. Afton Park and Afton Square are both within two-tenths of a mile, giving the immediate area a green, open feel. George Washington Park is just three-tenths of a mile away. Portsmouth itself is one of the seven cities that make up Hampton Roads. It sits on the Elizabeth River, directly across from Norfolk. The city has a genuine historic core, a working waterfront, and a compact layout that makes daily errands fast. Getting around is straightforward — interstates and tunnels connect Portsmouth to Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Suffolk quickly. Anyone browsing Portsmouth homes for sale will notice how much ground this city covers for its size.

What's nearby

Daily errands are easy from 20 Cushing Street. A BP station is three-tenths of a mile away, and a Food Lion is half a mile out. The Scott Center Annex Commissary is less than a mile away — a useful option for those with base access. Vietnam 81 Restaurant is two-tenths of a mile away for a quick dinner. Geraldine's Kitchen and Burger King are both within three-tenths of a mile. Dunkin' is four-tenths of a mile away for your morning coffee. Planet Fitness is half a mile out. For outdoor time, Afton Park and George Washington Park are both within easy walking distance.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about four minutes by car — one of the shortest base commutes in all of Hampton Roads. USCG Base Portsmouth is roughly five minutes away. VA loan financing is common and well-supported in this zip code. The 2020 build year means no deferred maintenance surprises. That adds up to a straightforward path from offer to move-in.

For first-time buyers

A 2020-built home means the roof, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical are all under five years old. That reduces the repair unknowns that come with older stock. Four bedrooms and three full baths give you room to grow without a second move. If you are comparing homes for sale in 23702, the combination of modern construction and this price range is worth a close look.
