Why this home stands out
What sets 2700 Myrtle Ave apart is the combination of newer construction in an established Norfolk neighborhood and an almost unbeatable position for military households. A 2017 build means you get modern systems, contemporary finishes, and three full bathrooms — a rarity at this size — without the maintenance surprises that come with older homes in the area. The dual-base proximity is genuinely hard to beat anywhere in Hampton Roads.

Norfolk itself wraps around this neighborhood with easy access to the waterfront, downtown arts and dining, and the web of interstates and tunnels that connect Hampton Roads. Haynes Tract is close enough to Portsmouth to feel like a border community, which means you get the energy of two cities without committing to either.
