2612 Minnesota Ave, Norfolk, VA 23513

Why this home stands out

What sets 2612 Minnesota Ave apart is the combination of newer construction in an established city neighborhood. Built in 2017, you get the tighter tolerances, updated systems, and modern layout that older Norfolk stock rarely offers — without paying new-development prices. Four bedrooms across 2,183 square feet gives everyone room to spread out, and the half-bath adds the kind of everyday practicality that a busy household genuinely notices.

COLEMAN PLACE and the Norfolk real estate market

Minnesota Avenue sits within Norfolk's southside, a part of the city where working-class roots and genuine community character run deep. The streets here are lived-in in the best sense — neighbors who know each other, blocks with mature trees, and a city grid that gets you where you need to go without a highway. Norfolk itself is one of Hampton Roads' most dynamic cities: a working waterfront, a serious arts scene anchored by the Chrysler Museum, and a military presence that shapes the culture in ways both practical and proud. The 23513 zip code puts you close to the heart of it all. Families comparing homes for sale in Norfolk will find that this part of the city delivers solid square footage and newer construction at a value that the more headline-grabbing zip codes rarely match. Daily life here has a rhythm — coffee run, quick grocery stop, a workout — and the infrastructure to support it is genuinely close.
