About this home

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.

Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

A 1999-built, three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home with 2,554 square feet sitting steps from the Chesapeake Bay in Norfolk's Ocean View corridor — with Naval Station Norfolk just six minutes away and a local beach literally at the end of the block.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 262 W Ocean View Ave apart is the rare combination of genuine waterfront-adjacent living, generous square footage for the area, and an almost absurdly short commute to two major installations. At 2,554 square feet with three full baths plus a half bath, there's real room to spread out — and when the workday ends, the beach is a two-minute walk. That's a lifestyle most Norfolk homes for sale simply can't replicate.

WILLOUGHBY BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market

Ocean View is Norfolk's northernmost coastal strip, hugging the southern shore of the Chesapeake Bay with a laid-back, community-first energy that sets it apart from the city's more urban quarters. The neighborhood has gone through a quiet renaissance over the past decade — independent restaurants, yoga studios, and coffee shops have filled in alongside the longtime fishing piers and beach parks that give Ocean View its identity. You're still firmly in Norfolk, with easy access to downtown and the wider Hampton Roads metro, but the pace here feels deliberately unhurried. Wide views, salt air, and neighbors who wave from their front porches are the norm. Families comparing homes for sale in Norfolk often discover Ocean View late in their search — and then wonder why they didn't start here. The 23503 zip code covers this stretch of bay-front blocks, and the address puts you within a short drive of everything the city offers while keeping the beach as your backyard.

What's nearby

Daily life is genuinely easy from this address. Sarah Constant Beach Park and a local beach are both within 0.1 miles — morning walks on the sand are simply part of the routine. Ocean View Fishing Pier Restaurant is also just a tenth of a mile away for a casual waterfront meal, and The OV Beach Tavern is a short four-tenths-of-a-mile stroll for an evening out. Mudita Cafe & Bar and Starbucks are both within half a mile when you need a proper coffee run. Groceries are covered by Harris Teeter at 0.5 miles, with Dollar General and Beach Bay Mart equally close. Ocean View Yoga and The Yoga Space give you solid fitness options within walking distance, and Monkey Bottom Park is just 0.2 miles away for weekend outdoor time.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Naval Station Norfolk is six minutes from the front door, and MARFORCOM Norfolk is seven — making 262 W Ocean View Ave one of the more strategically located addresses in Hampton Roads for active-duty households. VA loan eligibility stretches meaningfully here, and the commute math is hard to argue with. You get over 2,500 square feet, three full baths, and beach access without sacrificing any time to traffic.

For families upgrading

If your current home feels like it's running out of room, 2,554 square feet across three bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths gives you space to breathe — and then some. Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Granby High School and homes for sale zoned for Granby Elementary School will find this address checks both boxes while adding a beach-adjacent lifestyle that's genuinely hard to find at this square footage in the area.
