Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 302 Plover Drive apart is its rare combination of classic mid-century bones and a location that almost no other address in Hampton Roads can match. Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is a three-minute drive away, and USCG Base Portsmouth is four minutes out. Four bedrooms inside a home of this era gives you room that many comparable properties in the area simply don't offer.

SHEA TERRACE and the Portsmouth real estate market

302 Plover Drive sits within Portsmouth, Virginia — one of the seven cities that make up the Hampton Roads metro and one with a character all its own. Portsmouth carries genuine history in its architecture, its waterfront, and its tight-knit blocks, and Plover Drive fits right into that fabric. The surrounding area is a mix of established single-family homes, mature trees, and streets that feel lived-in rather than manufactured. Portsmouth homes for sale in this pocket tend to attract buyers who want proximity to the water and to major employers without the price premium of neighboring cities. The Elizabeth River is nearby, and the downtown Portsmouth waterfront — with its Olde Towne Historic District — is a short drive that gives you access to dining, the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Museum, and the Portside festival grounds. Getting around is straightforward: I-264 and US-58 connect you quickly to Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Suffolk.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy from Plover Drive. Grocery runs, pharmacies, and everyday errands are all within a short drive in multiple directions. The Crawford Bay waterfront area and the Elizabeth River Trail offer outdoor options close to home. Olde Towne Portsmouth — with its independently owned restaurants, coffee spots, and historic streetscapes — is just a few minutes away. For larger retail needs, you're well-positioned between the commercial corridors along Frederick Boulevard and Victory Boulevard, both reachable without getting on a highway.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Three minutes to Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and four minutes to USCG Base Portsmouth — it's hard to overstate how much that proximity simplifies a military lifestyle. Whether you're weighing a VA loan for the first time or you've used your benefit before, 302 Plover Drive puts you close enough to base that a forgotten lunch or a last-minute duty change is never a logistical crisis.

For first-time buyers

Four bedrooms and nearly 1,900 square feet in a city with real character — 302 Plover Drive offers the kind of square footage that gives first-time buyers room to grow without immediately outgrowing the home. Portsmouth's established neighborhoods tend to hold their appeal over time, and the access to major roads and employers makes this a practical first step into ownership.
