Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms in a 1,700-square-foot footprint is a genuinely rare find — most homes this size top out at three. The third full bath adds real flexibility for larger households or multi-generational living. Add in the 1943 construction era, which typically means solid bones, thicker walls, and the kind of architectural detail you simply don't find in newer builds, and this address stands apart from the crowd.
FAIRVIEW HEIGHTS S and the Portsmouth real estate market
22 Fairview Circle S sits in Portsmouth, one of Hampton Roads' most historically layered cities and home to some of the region's most distinctive residential streets. Portsmouth blends working waterfront heritage with genuine neighborhood character — tree-lined blocks, mid-century homes, and a pace of life that feels grounded rather than rushed. The Cradock and Cavalier Manor areas nearby reflect the same era of development, giving the broader community a cohesive, established feel. Downtown Portsmouth is just a short drive north, where the waterfront boardwalk, the Children's Museum of Virginia, and a growing dining scene line the Elizabeth River. Olde Towne Portsmouth, one of the largest collections of 18th- and 19th-century architecture on the East Coast, is within easy reach and worth exploring on foot. For commuters, the location inside Portsmouth means quick access to I-264, the Downtown Tunnel, and the Midtown Tunnel — connecting you to Norfolk, Chesapeake, and beyond without a complicated drive.
What's nearby
Daily life is easy here. Grocery runs are straightforward with a Food Lion and a Walmart Supercenter both within a few miles. For coffee, you're close to local spots along Portsmouth Boulevard as well as national chains. Prentis Park and City Park offer green space for weekend mornings, and the Elizabeth River Trail provides a scenic route for walkers and cyclists. Portsmouth's Medical Center corridor keeps healthcare close, and a handful of neighborhood restaurants and carry-out spots mean weeknight dinners don't always require cooking. The ferry to Norfolk's Waterside District is a short drive away.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Norfolk Naval Shipyard is five minutes from your front door, and USCG Base Portsmouth is six. For active-duty households, that kind of proximity changes daily life — shorter commutes, more time at home, and a location that works whether you're on a rotating schedule or a steady shore-duty billet. A VA loan can make ownership here straightforward, and five bedrooms gives the whole family room to spread out.
For buyers drawn to character
Homes built in 1943 carry something newer construction simply can't replicate — proportioned rooms, hardwood-era craftsmanship, and a streetscape presence that fits naturally into Portsmouth's established blocks. If you're drawn to homes with history rather than homes with hype, 22 Fairview Circle S offers that foundation. Five bedrooms and three full baths mean you're not sacrificing practicality for charm.

What can you tell me about the layout of a five-bedroom, 1,700-square-foot home?
