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

At a glance

Meet 2113 Helsley Avenue—a three-bedroom, 1.1-bath home built in 1955 in Norfolk. You're about seven minutes from JEB Little Creek-Fort Story and ten from Naval Station Norfolk. This 1,721-square-foot house offers solid bones and convenient access to everyday errands.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Built in the mid-century, this home carries classic 1950s character with practical floor plans. Three bedrooms and a full bath plus half-bath give you flexibility for a home office, guest room, or extra living space. The lot sits close to Tarrallton Park, so outdoor recreation is steps away. You'll find Norfolk homes for sale across many price points, but this address delivers walkable neighborhood living near two major military installations.

ROOSEVELT SHORES and the Norfolk real estate market

This corner of Norfolk sits in a residential pocket with tree-lined streets and modest single-family homes. The neighborhood has a settled, established feel—the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23518. You're walking distance to Tarrallton Park and Pretty Lake Playground, both great for outdoor time. Daily errands are close: Walmart Neighborhood Market and Save A Lot are under a mile away, and a handful of coffee shops and restaurants cluster nearby. Norfolk itself is a major naval hub with a vibrant downtown, museums, and waterfront attractions. Getting around is straightforward on local roads; the bases and city center are quick drives. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Norfolk will find this location balances quiet residential streets with easy access to employment, shopping, and recreation.

Grocery shopping is convenient: Walmart Neighborhood Market, Save A Lot, and Manila Bread House are all under a mile. For meals and coffee, you've got 7-Eleven, Peppers Indian Cuisine, Little Creek Diner, Apelu Island Cafe, and Always Latte Cafe within a short drive. Fitness First Training Services is also nearby if you're looking for gym access.

For different buyers
