Why this home stands out
At 2,200 square feet, 3671 Foxwell Drive delivers more room than most mid-century Norfolk homes in its class. The 1952 build year places it in an era of solid construction — think real plaster, generous room proportions, and lot sizes that newer subdivisions rarely match. Two full baths serve three bedrooms without the squeeze, and the footprint gives you genuine flexibility for how you live day to day.
INGLESIDE and the Norfolk real estate market
Foxwell Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket of Norfolk's east side, a part of the city where streets are lined with mature trees and neighbors tend to stick around for decades. The surrounding blocks carry that unhurried, established feel that only comes with time — sidewalks, driveways, and yards that have been tended through multiple generations of families. Norfolk itself is one of the most layered cities on the East Coast: a working waterfront, a thriving arts scene, and a military presence that keeps the local economy grounded year-round. If you've been searching for a norfolk home for sale that gives you real square footage in a neighborhood that already has its character figured out, Foxwell Drive is worth a close look. Norfolk sits within Norfolk County jurisdiction and is surrounded by the broader Hampton Roads metro, putting you within easy reach of Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Portsmouth without ever feeling like you're far from home.
What's nearby
Daily errands and weekend plans both come together easily from 3671 Foxwell Drive. The Military Circle area is just minutes east, giving you access to big-box retail, dining, and services without a long drive. Interstate 64 is close enough to make commutes across Hampton Roads manageable in either direction. Waterfront parks along the Lafayette River and the Elizabeth River Trail system are within a short drive for outdoor time. Portsmouth's historic Olde Towne district — restaurants, coffee shops, and weekend markets — is an easy hop across the water. Grocery options, pharmacies, and everyday conveniences cluster along Virginia Beach Boulevard and Norview Avenue nearby.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
USCG Base Portsmouth and Norfolk Naval Shipyard are both seven minutes from your front door — that kind of proximity is genuinely rare and makes schedule changes, duty calls, and gate-to-couch commutes far less stressful. A VA loan can make this 2,200-square-foot home even more accessible, and the three bedrooms give growing military households the space they actually need between deployments and PCS cycles.
For families upgrading
If your current home has you counting square feet, 3671 Foxwell Drive answers that problem with 2,200 of them spread across three bedrooms and two full baths. The 1952 construction means the rooms are genuinely sized — not the narrow, subdivided layouts of newer builds. There's space here for a home office, a playroom, or simply the breathing room that makes a house feel like a home rather than a holding pattern.
