Why this home stands out
What sets 3528 Carter Road apart is the rare trifecta of walkable errands, quick military base access, and a tight-knit residential feel. Churchland Little League Baseball Fields sit just a tenth of a mile away, three grocery options are within half a mile, and NSA Northwest Annex is a seven-minute drive. For a 1968-era home pushing nearly 1,900 square feet, the bones and the location both punch above their weight.
GREENFIELD FARMS and the Portsmouth real estate market
Carter Road sits in the Churchland corridor of Portsmouth — one of the city's most practical and livable pockets. The area has a classic mid-century suburban character: established tree lines, modest lot sizes, and neighbors who tend to stick around. Churchland isn't flashy, but it's functional in the best possible way. Errands get done fast, commutes to the naval installations are short, and there's a genuine sense of community that newer developments often struggle to replicate. Portsmouth itself is a city with deep maritime roots, a revitalized downtown waterfront, and a cost of living that makes homeownership accessible without sacrificing location. Sitting across the Elizabeth River from Norfolk and connected by bridge-tunnel to Virginia Beach and the broader Hampton Roads region, Portsmouth gives you regional reach without the regional price tag. The Churchland area in particular draws buyers who want suburban calm with urban proximity — and 3528 Carter Road delivers exactly that.

For fitness, Planet Fitness, Full Potential Fitness and Wellness, and the Portsmouth YMCA are all within a mile. And Churchland Little League Baseball Fields are literally 0.1 miles from your front door.
