3315 Dogwood Dr, Portsmouth, VA 23703

Why this home stands out

This 1964 home sits on a tree-lined block in a neighborhood where houses have real setbacks and yards. You get solid bones, a traditional floor plan, and the kind of established feel you find in older Portsmouth residential areas. The lot gives you breathing room—not a cramped suburban setup. It's the sort of place where neighbors know each other and the streets feel lived-in, not brand-new.
