For buyers who want a home nobody else has lived in, 3305 Penguin Circle delivers exactly that.
ADAMS LANDING and the Elizabeth City real estate market
Adams Landing is a residential community in Elizabeth City, North Carolina — a small city of roughly 17,000 people anchored by the Pasquotank River in the northeastern corner of the state. Elizabeth City carries a genuine small-town character: a walkable downtown with local restaurants and a working waterfront, a strong arts community, and a pace of life that's hard to manufacture. The city sits in Pasquotank County, about 50 miles south of Norfolk, Virginia, making it a practical base for anyone who works in the broader Hampton Roads region but prefers a quieter address. Adams Landing itself is a newer-growth pocket of the city, with fresh streetscapes and homes built for modern layouts. You're close to the Pasquotank River Trail, the downtown marina district, and the everyday retail corridor along Hughes Boulevard — all without the congestion of a larger metro.
