248 E Mcginnis Cir, Norfolk, VA 23502

Why this home stands out

Ranch homes from the mid-1950s carry a layout logic that newer construction often misses — single-floor living, generous room proportions, and solid construction that has stood the test of decades. At 1,560 square feet across three bedrooms and two full baths, 248 E McGinnis Circle gives you enough room to breathe without the upkeep burden of a much larger footprint. The lot and street-level setting keep things grounded and approachable.

River Forrest Shores and the Norfolk real estate market

248 E McGinnis Circle sits in the eastern corridor of Norfolk, a part of the city that tends to feel quieter than the busier commercial strips while still keeping you connected to everything Norfolk offers. The surrounding streets are a mix of similarly scaled mid-century homes, giving the area a cohesive, established character that newer subdivisions rarely achieve. Norfolk itself is one of the most historically layered cities on the East Coast — home to the world's largest naval station, a working waterfront, a revitalized downtown arts district, and easy access to the broader Hampton Roads metro. Whether you're drawn to the dining scene along Granby Street, weekend afternoons at the Norfolk Botanical Garden, or the quick hop over to the Oceanfront, you're never far from something worth doing. The eastern side of the city also connects naturally to I-64, which opens up the entire region — Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Portsmouth — within a reasonable drive.

Day-to-day errands from 248 E McGinnis Circle are genuinely convenient. Grocery options, pharmacies, and everyday retail are reachable within a few minutes by car. Military Circle area provides a dense cluster of services if you need them. For green space, Northside Park and Little Creek Reservoir offer outdoor options without a long drive. The eastern Norfolk location also puts you close to several dining and coffee spots along the Virginia Beach Boulevard corridor, so you're not hunting far for a morning cup or a weeknight dinner out.
