About buying in Norfolk

Homes for sale in Norfolk, VA range from historic district townhouses in Ghent (23507) and waterfront condos along the Elizabeth River to ranch-style family homes in Larchmont, Lochaven, and Lafayette-Winona. As the cultural and economic heart of Hampton Roads, Norfolk offers something for nearly every buyer: $200K starter homes in Ocean View (23503, 23518), $400K-$600K Craftsman bungalows in Ghent and West Ghent (23517), executive homes near Old Dominion University (23508), and luxury riverfront properties in Larchmont and Algonquin Park. Norfolk's biggest employer is Naval Station Norfolk — the largest naval base in the world — and the city is also home to Norfolk Naval Shipyard, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Old Dominion University, and Norfolk State University. The active-duty military and academic communities drive steady year-round demand. Public schools include Maury High School in Ghent and Granby High School in Ocean View, and historically strong specialty programs at the Governor's School for the Arts. Buyers searching the 23510 (downtown) and 23508 (West Ghent / ODU corridor) ZIP codes will find the strongest mix of urban walkability and historic architecture; 23503 and 23518 (Ocean View) offer the most affordable waterfront entry points in Hampton Roads.
