Why this home stands out

What sets 308 Hanbury Ave apart is its unbeatable proximity to two major installations — Norfolk Naval Shipyard and USCG Base Portsmouth are both within a five-minute drive. The 1,050-square-foot, three-bedroom layout is efficient without feeling cramped, and the 1951 construction gives the home solid bones that newer tract builds rarely match. For buyers who want to be close to the waterfront industrial heart of Portsmouth without paying a premium for it, this block delivers.

CRADOCK WEST and the Portsmouth real estate market

Portsmouth is one of Hampton Roads' most storied cities, and the area around Hanbury Ave carries that history in its streetscape. Mid-century ranches and bungalows line the blocks here, and the neighborhood has a settled, lived-in character that newer subdivisions simply can't replicate. The Truxtun Historic District is just half a mile away, offering a window into the city's architectural past. George Washington Park is also within a short walk, giving the immediate area a bit of breathing room. Portsmouth sits across the Elizabeth River from Norfolk, with easy access to downtown Portsmouth's waterfront, the ferry terminal, and the broader Hampton Roads highway network. Families comparing Portsmouth homes for sale will notice that this zip code keeps you remarkably close to daily essentials, green space, and two major military installations — all without the traffic overhead of larger corridors.

What's nearby

Daily errands are straightforward from 308 Hanbury Ave. Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen is just 0.1 miles away for a quick dinner, and Subs Sandwiches & More and Mama Chan's Chinese Take-Out are both within 0.2 miles. A BP and an Amoco are each about half a mile out for fuel and grab-and-go items, and the Scott Center Annex Commissary — a real perk for military households — is also 0.5 miles away. MWR Scott Annex Park and George Washington Park are both 0.4 miles out when you want fresh air. Callaghan Gym and Fitness Center is 0.6 miles away, and Mariner's Reef Cafe and Dunkin' cover your coffee needs within a mile.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Four minutes to Norfolk Naval Shipyard and five to USCG Base Portsmouth — the commute math here is hard to argue with. Add the Scott Center Annex Commissary half a mile away and MWR Scott Annex Park just down the road, and 308 Hanbury Ave is genuinely built around the rhythms of a military household. A VA loan makes the path to ownership even more straightforward.

For first-time buyers

At 1,050 square feet across three bedrooms, 308 Hanbury Ave is a manageable first home with room to grow into — not so large it overwhelms, not so small it constrains. The 1951 construction means real materials and real walls, and the location keeps everyday life within easy reach. Buyers exploring homes for sale in 23702 will find this address offers a practical entry point into Portsmouth homeownership.
