2730 Myrtle Ave is a four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home in Norfolk's Haynes Tract neighborhood, offering 2,100 square feet of living space on a property built in 1950. With two military installations just five minutes away, it's a natural fit for service members and growing families alike.
What sets 2730 Myrtle Ave apart is the combination of genuine mid-century bones and a location that almost nothing else in this price corridor can match. Four bedrooms across 2,100 square feet gives you real room to spread out, and the half-bath adds everyday practicality that older homes in Haynes Tract often lack. Two major military installations sit within a five-minute drive — a commute advantage that's genuinely hard to beat in Hampton Roads.
HAYNES TRACT and the Norfolk real estate market
Haynes Tract is one of those Norfolk neighborhoods that rewards people who look past the surface. The streets here are lined with mid-century homes that were built to last, and the community has a settled, lived-in character that newer subdivisions simply haven't had time to develop. Neighbors tend to know each other, sidewalks connect you to nearby corridors, and the general vibe is unpretentious and welcoming. If you've been searching for a norfolk home for sale that puts you inside a real neighborhood rather than a cookie-cutter development, Haynes Tract deserves a close look. Norfolk itself is a city of genuine depth — a working waterfront, a thriving arts scene, and a military heritage that shapes everything from the local economy to the daily rhythm of life. The city's ongoing investment in its older neighborhoods means that areas like Haynes Tract are seeing steady attention and reinvestment. You're not buying into a neighborhood that's standing still.
What's nearby
Daily life is easy here. Grocery runs, coffee stops, and pharmacy errands are all handled within a short drive along the surrounding corridors. USCG Base Portsmouth sits roughly five minutes away, and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is equally close — meaning medical appointments and base errands rarely eat into your day. Broad Creek and the broader Lafayette River watershed are accessible for outdoor time, and downtown Norfolk's dining, entertainment, and waterfront parks are reachable in under fifteen minutes. The interstate network is close enough to make Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Suffolk all practical without a long haul.
For different buyers
Base commute and VA loan notes
Five minutes to USCG Base Portsmouth and five minutes to Naval Medical Center Portsmouth — that's a commute situation most Hampton Roads service members would trade for in a heartbeat. A VA loan can make a four-bedroom home like this one very attainable, and the half-bath means morning routines don't turn into a bottleneck when the whole family is getting ready at once.
Room to grow
Four bedrooms and 2,100 square feet give a growing family genuine breathing room — dedicated space for a home office, a guest room, or a playroom without anyone feeling squeezed. The half-bath on a separate level keeps the main living area functional during busy mornings and evenings. Haynes Tract's stable, established character means you're planting roots somewhere with real staying power.
