Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 3018 Tidewater Drive apart is the combination of size and era — 2,000 square feet built in 2005 means you get modern construction bones without the premium of a brand-new build. Four bedrooms give you real flexibility, whether that's a dedicated home office, a guest room, or space for a growing household. The half-bath on the main level is a small detail that makes daily life noticeably smoother.

LAFAYETTE ANNEX and the Norfolk real estate market

Tidewater Drive runs through one of Norfolk's more established corridors, connecting neighborhoods that have been home to military families, longtime locals, and working professionals for decades. The 23509 zip code sits in the eastern part of the city, close enough to Portsmouth that the two cities feel like neighbors. Norfolk itself is a city that rewards people who take the time to explore it — waterfront parks, a genuine dining scene, and a port-city energy that's hard to replicate. While buyers searching homes for sale in norfolk va 23518 are often drawn to the Ocean View waterfront a few miles north, the 23509 area offers a grounded, community-rooted alternative with strong access to both Norfolk and Portsmouth employment centers. Shoop Park is just down the street, and Lafayette Dog Park is a short walk away, giving the immediate area a livable, neighborhood feel rather than a purely transient one.
