Why this home stands out

What sets 2716 Lens Ave apart is its combination of compact, manageable square footage and an unbeatable position in the 23509 zip code — close enough to two major installations that a morning commute barely registers, yet tucked into a residential stretch where Shoop Park is just a block away and local dining is steps from your front door. For buyers who want proximity without the noise, this block delivers.

BELMONT PLACE and the Norfolk real estate market

Lens Avenue sits in a working, walkable corner of Norfolk — a city of nearly 240,000 that anchors the Hampton Roads metro and hosts the largest naval complex in the world. The 23509 zip code occupies the south-central part of the city, a zone where older residential streets give way to small businesses, community parks, and quick highway access. Neighbors here tend to put down roots: the blocks around Lens Ave have a lived-in, unpretentious character that feels genuinely local rather than developer-polished. Norfolk itself rewards people who explore it — the waterfront, the arts district, the farmers markets, and the dining scene all sit within a short drive. Families comparing homes for sale in Norfolk often discover that this part of the city offers a practical, grounded lifestyle that newer suburban corridors simply can't replicate. The city's grid is easy to navigate, and the 23509 area keeps you close to both Portsmouth and the heart of Norfolk without committing you to either.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy here. Shoop Park is 0.1 miles away — a genuine neighborhood green space you'll actually use. Tait Terrace Dog Park is 0.3 miles out, making this a natural fit for dog owners. For food, Our Peoples Soulful Seafood and Barbecue-Blackstones are both within 0.3 miles, and Crazy Wings is just half a mile away. Wawa and 7-Eleven handle quick coffee and convenience runs. Provision Pros Inc and Dollar General cover everyday grocery needs nearby. The Salvation Army Kroc Center and Chesapeake Athletic Club, both under a mile, give you solid fitness options without a long drive.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Six minutes to USCG Base Portsmouth and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth — that's the kind of commute that changes your quality of life. A VA loan can make 2716 Lens Ave accessible with zero down, and the 1,096-square-foot layout is easy to maintain through deployments and PCS cycles. Norfolk homes for sale at this proximity to two installations are worth a close look for any service member stationed in the Portsmouth corridor.

For first-time buyers

At 1,096 square feet, 2716 Lens Ave is sized right for a first purchase — enough room to live comfortably without taking on more home than you need. The 1994 build year means you're not inheriting a century of deferred maintenance, and the location in the 23509 zip code puts you close to parks, food, and two major employment centers. Among homes for sale in 23509, this one checks the practical boxes that matter most when you're buying for the first time.
