Why this home stands out

The layout gives you genuine room to spread out—five bedrooms mean a home office, guest space, and flexibility. Three full baths plus a half bath handle the morning rush. A 2008 build means updated systems and solid bones. The location is unbeatable: two minutes to the shipyard, two minutes to USCG Base Portsmouth. Daily errands are walkable, and you're never far from what you need.

BRIGHTON and the Portsmouth real estate market

Chestnut Street sits in a working neighborhood where Portsmouth's maritime heritage runs deep. The streets are lined with homes built for people who work at the shipyard and the base—practical, accessible, close-knit. Portsmouth itself is a waterfront city with real character. Downtown is a short drive, and the Elizabeth River waterfront draws walkers and diners year-round. Getting around is straightforward: major routes connect you to Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and the broader Hampton Roads region. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23704 will find this location offers unmatched convenience to the naval complex. The city has been investing in its neighborhoods, and this area reflects that commitment to livability.

What's nearby

Church Food Mart is a tenth of a mile away—grab what you need without the drive. Emma's Restaurant and Lil Mammas soul kitchen are both two blocks out. Ziggy's Street Eats, Mariner's Reef Cafe, and a 7-Eleven cluster within three blocks. Callaghan Gym and Fitness Center and Brikhouse Boxing and Fitness are a short walk for workouts. Jefferson Park and Lansing Park sit four blocks away, perfect for weekend time outside. Scotts Creek Park rounds out your recreation options a half-mile north.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Two-minute commute to Norfolk Naval Shipyard and USCG Base Portsmouth cuts your drive time to nearly nothing. VA loan financing is common in this neighborhood—lenders know the area well. Five bedrooms and three baths give you space to settle in without compromise. The 2008 construction means systems are current and inspections typically move fast.

Room to grow

Five bedrooms mean everyone gets their own space—kids' rooms, a home office, guest quarters, or a hobby room. Three full baths plus a half bath ease the morning routine. The 3,000-square-foot layout flows naturally, and the lot gives you room to breathe. Storage is built in, and the 2008 build keeps maintenance predictable.
