Why this home stands out

Built in 2023, this home brings contemporary design and fresh construction quality to a neighborhood close to the water. Three full baths and an open layout make daily life comfortable. The location sits minutes from two major military installations, making it especially practical for base commuters. New construction means everything is under warranty and built to current standards.

OCEAN VIEW EAST and the Norfolk real estate market

Pretty Lake Avenue sits in a residential pocket of Norfolk with tree-lined streets and a genuine sense of community. The neighborhood is quieter than the busier commercial corridors but still walkable to everyday services. Parks dot the area—Pretty Lake Playground is just two blocks away, and Bay Oaks Park is even closer. Norfolk itself is a vibrant waterfront city with a rich maritime heritage, naval presence, and growing downtown scene. Getting around is straightforward: major roads connect you to Naval Station Norfolk in minutes, and the broader Hampton Roads region is within easy reach. If you're comparing homes for sale in 23518, note that this zip code blends residential calm with strong military and employment ties. The streets here feel established yet welcoming, with newer homes like this one fitting naturally into the neighborhood character.
