Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 283 Exeter Road apart is the combination of generous single-story square footage and an established 1968 build that gives the home real bones — solid construction from an era when rooms were sized for living, not just showing. At 1,711 square feet across three bedrooms and two full baths, there's room to spread out without the upkeep of a sprawling footprint. The lot sits in a quiet residential pocket of Newport News that's close to everything without feeling like it.

RUNNYMEDE and the Newport News real estate market

Exeter Road sits in a well-established residential corridor of Newport News — the kind of neighborhood where the trees are mature, the streets are calm, and neighbors tend to stick around. The surrounding area has a comfortable, unpretentious character that appeals to people who want a real community rather than a brand-new development. Newport News itself is one of the most livable cities on the Virginia Peninsula, stretching from the James River waterfront up through wooded inland neighborhoods like this one. The city carries a strong sense of place — shaped by its shipbuilding heritage, its proximity to multiple military installations, and a genuinely diverse mix of residents. Daily life here is practical and well-supported: you're never far from shopping corridors, parks, and major roads that connect you quickly to the rest of Hampton Roads. For military families especially, Newport News offers the rare combination of affordability, community, and commute convenience.

What's nearby

Nicewood Park is just 0.4 miles from your front door — an easy walk for an afternoon out or a quick morning run. Beyond that, the broader Newport News road network puts you within a short drive of grocery stores, pharmacies, and the retail corridors along Jefferson Avenue and Warwick Boulevard. Joint Base Langley-Eustis is reachable in about eight minutes, and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 18 minutes out — making 283 Exeter Road a genuinely practical address for anyone commuting to either installation. Interstate 64 access keeps the rest of Hampton Roads well within reach.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Eight minutes to Joint Base Langley-Eustis and 18 minutes to Naval Weapons Station Yorktown — 283 Exeter Road is built for military life. A VA loan can make this three-bedroom, two-bath home even more accessible, and the single-story layout means no stairs to navigate during deployments or busy duty schedules. Newport News has long been a go-to city for service members who want a real neighborhood close to the gate.

For first-time buyers

If you're stepping into homeownership for the first time, 283 Exeter Road offers a straightforward, manageable entry point. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and 1,711 square feet of single-story living give you real space without overwhelming complexity. The 1968 construction means the home has already proven itself over decades, and the Newport News location keeps your daily commute — wherever that takes you — genuinely convenient.
