About this home

The listing, in the seller's words

This amazing 3 story contemporary Duplex/Condo is one of a group of 4 units. . Designated as "Condo" the owners decided to not register them so there are no condo fees. Flood insurance is required. The picket fence and walk way are common property: however, the City of Norfolk will remove the stairs to the beach and will not replace them. The 2 year old roof with new solar panels causes the electricity to be reduced to approximately $10 per month. 3 full bedrooms plus an office/with closet could be used as a 4th. bedroom. Two large covered porches include storage closets. Built-ins, plus a chef's kitchen with Bar Stool counter are Open Living at its best.

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · LPT Realty

At a glance

262 W Ocean View Ave puts you steps from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline in a 2,554-square-foot, three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home built in 1999 — all within six minutes of Naval Station Norfolk and a short walk to the beach.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets this address apart is the rare combination of genuine waterfront-adjacent living and practical military proximity. At 2,554 square feet across three bedrooms and three and a half baths, there's real room to spread out — yet Naval Station Norfolk is a six-minute drive and MARFORCOM Norfolk is seven. You get the beach lifestyle without sacrificing the commute math that matters most to Hampton Roads households.

WILLOUGHBY BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market

West Ocean View is one of Norfolk's most quietly compelling stretches of coastline — a low-key, residential corridor running along the Chesapeake Bay where the vibe leans decidedly more 'local beach town' than 'resort strip.' The streets here mix long-time residents with newer arrivals who discovered that bay-front living doesn't have to come with a sky-high price tag or a long commute. You're in the Ocean View section of Norfolk proper, which means city services, easy highway access via I-64, and a neighborhood that has steadily reinvested in itself over the past two decades. The primary keyword for this corridor — Ocean View Norfolk real estate — reflects genuine demand: people who want water nearby, a walkable block, and a short shot to the base. Summers bring kayakers, anglers, and sunset-watchers to the shoreline; winters stay mild enough that the neighborhood never fully goes quiet. It's the kind of place where neighbors wave from their porches and the sound of the bay is never far away.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy from 262 W Ocean View Ave. Sarah Constant Beach Park and a local beach are both within a tenth of a mile — you can be in the sand before your coffee cools. Speaking of coffee, Mudita Cafe & Bar is four-tenths of a mile away, and Starbucks is just a half mile. For a meal or a drink, Ocean View Fishing Pier Restaurant and The OV Beach Tavern are both close by. Groceries are covered with Harris Teeter, Dollar General, and Beach Bay Mart all within half a mile. Ocean View Yoga and The Yoga Space handle fitness, and Monkey Bottom Park is two-tenths of a mile away for a quick outdoor reset.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Six minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and seven to MARFORCOM Norfolk makes 262 W Ocean View Ave one of the more strategically located addresses in the city for active-duty households. A VA loan can make ownership here straightforward, and with 2,554 square feet and three and a half baths, there's room for the whole family — plus a guest room when family visits from out of town.

For families upgrading

If your current home is feeling tight, 2,554 square feet with three bedrooms and three and a half baths gives everyone their own space. Add a beach park literally steps away, a walkable stretch of restaurants and coffee shops, and a neighborhood with real community character — this is the kind of upgrade that changes how your family spends its weekends.
