About this home

The listing, in the seller's words

This charming Newport News home sits less than a mile from Christopher Newport University and offers the kind of everyday comfort people look for but rarely find. The front porch sets the tone, welcoming, relaxed, and made for slowing down at the end of the day. Inside, the layout was thoughtfully opened up from the original three-bedroom design, creating a spacious main living area and a large primary suite with its own private bath. The sunroom brings in beautiful natural light and connects easily to the deck, giving you extra room for morning coffee, weekend gatherings, or quiet evenings at home. Out back you have a detached garage and carport plus a 20x30 shed that can handle workshop needs, storage, or hobby space. The location puts you in the heart of Midtown Newport News, close to CNU, shopping, parks, Newport News Shipyard as well as all the surrounding military bases. A comfortable, well-loved home in a convenient spot.
