3669 Nottaway St, Norfolk, VA 23513

Why this home stands out

Built nearly a century ago, this 1,000-square-foot home carries the kind of bones that newer construction rarely matches — solid framing, a tight footprint that's easy to heat and cool, and a lot that gives you breathing room without demanding a weekend of yard work every time the grass grows. For buyers who want character over cookie-cutter, Nottaway Street delivers it without the premium zip code price tag.

ESTABROOK and the Norfolk real estate market

Nottaway Street sits inside the city of Norfolk, a working waterfront city that anchors the Hampton Roads metro and hosts the world's largest naval station just across the Elizabeth River. The 23513 zip code is a quietly residential corner of the city — modest streets, mature trees, and neighbors who tend to stay put. Homes for sale in Norfolk span a wide range of eras and styles, but this pocket of the city leans toward early-twentieth-century cottages and bungalows, giving the blocks a cohesive, unhurried feel. You're close enough to downtown Norfolk to catch a show or grab dinner on Granby Street, yet far enough that you're not dealing with the noise or the parking headaches. The Elizabeth River Trail, the Scope Arena, and the Norfolk Botanical Garden are all reasonable drives, and the interstate grid means you can reach Virginia Beach or Chesapeake in under twenty minutes on a normal traffic day.
