Why this home stands out

What sets 2826 Lens Ave apart is the combination of a genuine four-bedroom count in a compact, manageable footprint and an address that puts Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and USCG Base Portsmouth within a six-minute drive of each other. Add a dog park literally around the corner and a park two blocks away, and the everyday logistics of life here are genuinely hard to beat in this price range of Norfolk.

BELMONT PLACE and the Norfolk real estate market

Belmont Place sits in the heart of Norfolk, Virginia — a city that punches well above its weight for character, waterfront access, and military community roots. The neighborhood itself is a straightforward, no-frills residential pocket where houses have yards, streets are quiet enough for an evening walk, and neighbors tend to stick around. If you're browsing norfolk va homes for sale and want something grounded rather than flashy, Belmont Place fits that brief. Norfolk as a whole offers a dense mix of history, arts, and naval heritage — from the Ghent dining district to the Chrysler Museum — and Belmont Place gives you a calm home base from which to enjoy all of it. The 23509 zip code is well-connected by major corridors, making cross-city or cross-river commutes manageable whether you're heading to the shipyard, a base, or downtown.

What's nearby

Daily errands are covered within a short walk or drive. Provision Pros Inc is just 0.3 miles out for quick grocery runs, and Dollar General is half a mile away. When you want to eat out, Barbecue-Blackstones is only 0.2 miles from your front door — a local spot worth knowing. Crazy Wings and Manny's Burger are both within 0.4 miles for casual weeknight options. Wawa is under a mile for coffee and convenience. Shoop Park is a two-minute walk at 0.2 miles, and Tait Terrace Dog Park is just 0.3 miles away. For fitness, Chesapeake Athletic Club and the Salvation Army Kroc Center Hampton Roads are both under a mile.

For different buyers
