Why this home stands out
What sets 2216 Deep Creek Blvd apart is the combination of genuine square footage — 2,240 feet across four bedrooms and three full baths — and an almost unbeatable position relative to Norfolk Naval Shipyard. Very few addresses in Portsmouth put you this close to the gate while still sitting inside an established residential neighborhood with parks, local eateries, and everyday errands all within a half-mile radius.
PRENTIS PLACE and the Portsmouth real estate market
Prentis Place is one of those Portsmouth neighborhoods that doesn't need to shout. The streets are lined with mid-century homes that have real bones, and the community has a settled, lived-in character that newer subdivisions simply can't replicate. Deep Creek Blvd runs right through the heart of it, connecting you quickly to the broader city grid without the noise of a major arterial. Portsmouth itself is a city with genuine personality — waterfront history, a compact downtown, and a military presence that has shaped the community for generations. If you're exploring real estate Portsmouth has to offer across Hampton Roads, Prentis Place consistently delivers more square footage and more proximity to the shipyard per dollar than comparable neighborhoods across the water. The city sits in the southwestern corner of Hampton Roads, bordered by the Elizabeth River and connected to Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Suffolk by a web of bridges and tunnels. Daily life here moves at a pace that feels intentional — close enough to everything, far enough from the chaos.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are genuinely easy from Deep Creek Blvd. Lansing Park is just 0.4 miles away for a quick walk or afternoon outside, and the Truxtun Historic District is only half a mile down the road — a great spot to stretch your legs and take in some local history. Highland Biltmore Park adds another green-space option at 0.7 miles. When hunger hits, Hott Platz is practically around the corner at 0.2 miles, with Jem's Take A Plate and Ziggy's Street Eats both within 0.4 miles. Starbucks Coffee Company is 0.8 miles out, and Mariner's Reef Cafe is just a bit further. Callaghan Gym and Fitness Center rounds out the walkable amenities at 0.8 miles.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Norfolk Naval Shipyard is a three-minute drive from the front door — and USCG Base Portsmouth is four minutes in the other direction. For active-duty families weighing BAH and commute time together, 2216 Deep Creek Blvd is the kind of address that makes both conversations easier. A VA loan can make the financing side straightforward, and the four-bedroom layout gives growing families real room to breathe.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms, three full baths, and 2,240 square feet give a growing family genuine room to spread out — without the long commute or the cookie-cutter feel of a newer development. Prentis Place has parks within walking distance, local restaurants close by, and a neighborhood rhythm that works well for families who want space and convenience in the same package.
