Why this home stands out
What sets 2717 Ash Street apart is pure location math: two major military installations within a five-minute drive, with the kind of older Portsmouth neighborhood bones — think mid-century construction, established lots, and tree-lined streets — that you simply can't replicate in newer suburban developments. For anyone whose daily commute runs through either base, this address quietly solves a big logistical puzzle.
NORCOM PARK and the Portsmouth real estate market
Ash Street sits in one of Portsmouth's established residential corridors, where mid-century homes line up on mature lots and neighbors tend to put down roots. Portsmouth itself is one of the original seven cities of Hampton Roads — a place with genuine history, a working waterfront, and a character that newer cities in the region are still trying to grow into. The Olde Towne Portsmouth historic district is just a short drive away, offering independent restaurants, galleries, and the kind of walkable streetscape that feels earned rather than manufactured. The Elizabeth River runs along the city's edge, and the passenger ferry connecting Portsmouth to downtown Norfolk makes cross-river trips easy and even enjoyable. Daily errands are straightforward — grocery stores, pharmacies, and local shops are all within a reasonable radius. Portsmouth rewards people who appreciate authenticity over polish, and Ash Street drops you right into the heart of that experience.
What's nearby
Everyday conveniences cluster close to Ash Street. Grocery options, pharmacies, and gas stations are all within a few minutes by car. The historic Olde Towne district is a short drive for dining and weekend browsing. City Park offers green space for morning runs or afternoons outside. The Portsmouth passenger ferry terminal connects you to Norfolk's waterfront without ever touching a bridge or tunnel — a genuine quality-of-life advantage in a region where traffic bottlenecks are a daily reality for many commuters.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Four minutes to Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and five to Norfolk Naval Shipyard — it's hard to find an address in Hampton Roads that checks both boxes this cleanly. Whether you're using a VA loan to buy or simply looking to cut your commute to a manageable length, 2717 Ash Street puts two of the region's largest installations practically at your doorstep. BAH for the Portsmouth area makes a home at this price point a genuinely practical conversation.
For first-time buyers
If you're buying your first home and want a foothold in Portsmouth without overextending, a three-bedroom, 1,125-square-foot house on an established street is a sensible place to start. The 1955 construction means real walls, real bones, and a lot size that gives you actual outdoor space. Pair that with proximity to two military bases and the city's improving amenity base, and you've got a property that makes sense on paper and in person.
