Why this home stands out

What sets 245 Winshire Street apart is the combination of size and location that's rare this close to base. At 1,646 square feet, you get real living space — not a cramped starter box — while still being a five-minute drive from Naval Station Norfolk's main gate. The Albemarle neighborhood keeps things quiet and residential, yet everything you need day-to-day is within half a mile.

ALBEMARLE and the Norfolk real estate market

Albemarle sits in the northern reaches of Norfolk, tucked between the Ocean View waterfront corridor and the city's major base infrastructure. It's a mature, established neighborhood where the streets are lined with mid-century and 1970s-era homes on generous lots, and neighbors tend to stay a while. The pace here is unhurried — you're far enough from downtown Norfolk's bustle to feel like you've exhaled, but close enough that a quick drive puts you anywhere in the city. If you're looking to buy house norfolk and want a location that balances military convenience with genuine neighborhood character, Albemarle delivers. Norfolk itself is a city of real substance: waterfront dining, arts venues, a thriving craft-beer scene, and one of the largest naval complexes in the world. Living in Albemarle means you get all of that without paying a premium for a trendier zip code.

What's nearby

Daily errands are genuinely easy from 245 Winshire Street. New York Pizzeria and Mom & Pops Family Restaurant are both within half a mile when you want a no-fuss dinner out, and a 7-Eleven at the same distance handles quick coffee runs and convenience stops. For fitness, CrossFit Norfolk and Ov Fit are each about half a mile away, and The Yoga Space is under a mile if you prefer something lower-impact. Green space is well-covered too — Packwalk is just 0.3 miles out, Maple Park and Ocean View Dog Park are both within 0.6 miles, and grocery options including BP and Tienda Latina La Tapatia 3 are under a mile.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Five minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and six minutes to MARFORCOM Norfolk — it doesn't get much more dialed-in than that. For military families weighing a VA loan and trying to keep the commute short, 245 Winshire Street checks the most important box immediately. Three bedrooms give everyone their own space, and Albemarle's stable, owner-occupied feel means you're buying into a real community, not just a convenient address.

For families upgrading

If you've outgrown a smaller place and need room to spread out, 1,646 square feet across three bedrooms and two baths gives your household genuine breathing room. The Albemarle neighborhood in Norfolk is the kind of place where kids can actually play outside — Packwalk is three-tenths of a mile away, and Ocean View Dog Park and Maple Park are both under a mile. Upgrading here means gaining space without sacrificing the neighborhood feel that makes a house a home.
