Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · LPT Realty

At a glance

3705 Shannon Road is a 1,215-square-foot, three-bedroom home in Portsmouth, Virginia, built in 1959 with a half-bath in addition to its full bath — a solid, right-sized property sitting just minutes from two major military installations and everyday conveniences.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 3705 Shannon Road apart is its unbeatable positioning: NSA Northwest Annex is a seven-minute drive, and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is only eight minutes away, making commute math genuinely easy for active-duty households. Add a walkable cluster of grocers, local eateries, and fitness options within a mile, and this 1959-built home punches well above its footprint in daily-life convenience.

CASTLE HEIGHTS and the Portsmouth real estate market

Shannon Road sits in a quiet residential pocket of Portsmouth — a city that often surprises people with how much it quietly delivers. Portsmouth is one of the seven cities of Hampton Roads, hugging the western bank of the Elizabeth River across from Norfolk. The Churchland area, where this address falls, has a distinctly neighborhood feel: tree-lined streets, modest well-kept lots, and a community that's been here long enough to have real character. Residents tend to stay, and that stability shows in how the area is maintained. Portsmouth as a whole offers a lower-key pace compared to Virginia Beach or Chesapeake, while still keeping you plugged into the broader Hampton Roads metro. Interstate 664 is nearby, putting you within reasonable reach of the entire region — from the shipyards to the shopping corridors — without the congestion that plagues busier corridors.

What's nearby

Daily errands are genuinely walkable or a short drive from 3705 Shannon Road. Food Lion is 0.6 miles out, with ALDI and Harris Teeter both within 0.8 miles — so grocery runs are never a project. When you want to eat out, Harvey's Hot Dogs and Billy D's Seafood & Chicken are each just 0.6 miles away, and JoJack's Espresso Bar & Cafe pulls double duty as your neighborhood coffee stop and casual dining spot at the same distance. A Starbucks is 0.9 miles out for backup. Fitness options are equally close: the Portsmouth YMCA is 0.6 miles, Planet Fitness 0.8 miles, and Full Potential Fitness and Wellness 0.9 miles. Churchland Little League Baseball Fields are just 0.3 miles away.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

For military households, the location at 3705 Shannon Road is hard to argue with. NSA Northwest Annex is seven minutes away, and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is eight — meaning BAH goes toward a home rather than a long commute. A VA loan makes ownership here especially straightforward, and the surrounding neighborhood has the kind of steady, community feel that makes PCS transitions easier on the whole family.

For first-time buyers

If you're stepping into ownership for the first time, 3705 Shannon Road offers a manageable footprint — 1,215 square feet, three bedrooms, and a layout that doesn't overwhelm. Portsmouth's Churchland area gives you a real neighborhood to land in, not just a house on a street. Groceries, coffee, and a gym are all under a mile. It's the kind of entry point that lets you build equity without sacrificing everyday comfort.
