Why this home stands out

The 1955 build date gives 400 Kay Road bones that newer construction rarely matches — solid framing, generous room proportions, and a layout where bedrooms actually feel like bedrooms. Four of them, plus two and a half baths, spread across nearly 2,000 square feet. Two major installations sit within ten minutes, and a grocery store is less than a mile away. That combination of space, era, and location is harder to find than it looks among Portsmouth homes for sale.

PARK MANOR and the Portsmouth real estate market

Kay Road sits in a quiet residential pocket of southwest Portsmouth. The streets here are lined with mid-century homes on established lots, the kind of block where neighbors have been around long enough to wave from the driveway. Portsmouth City Park anchors the immediate area, giving the neighborhood a green, open feel just half a mile out. The Links at City Park adds a golf course to that same corridor. Portsmouth itself is one of the seven cities of Hampton Roads, sitting on the western bank of the Elizabeth River directly across from Norfolk. Getting around is straightforward — Interstate 264 and the Downtown Tunnel connect you to Norfolk and Virginia Beach quickly. The city has a working waterfront, a historic Olde Towne district, and a ferry that crosses to Norfolk's waterfront. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Portsmouth will notice that the 23701 zip code offers strong access to both the naval corridor and the broader metro without the price premiums of the beach cities.

What's nearby

Daily errands are easy from Kay Road. Food Lion is 0.7 miles away, and MP International Grocery adds variety just 0.8 miles out. Dollar General covers quick household needs at 0.9 miles. Dinner options within that same radius include East Side Pizza, Chinese Gourmet Hibachi Express, and Mom & Son Thai Kitchen — all within 0.7 miles. TIGER Academy of Martial Arts and JGee Fitness are both under a mile for staying active. Portsmouth Volleyball Center rounds out the recreation options at 0.8 miles. Portsmouth City Park, with open green space and walking paths, is a half-mile walk.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about nine minutes from Kay Road. Norfolk Naval Shipyard is roughly ten minutes in the other direction. VA loan financing is widely used in this part of Portsmouth, and the four-bedroom layout means no scramble for space on day one. Buyers comparing homes for sale in 23701 will find this address checks the commute-time box for both installations.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms and two and a half baths give everyone their own space. The 1,931-square-foot footprint means room for a dedicated home office or playroom without crowding the living areas. The half-mile walk to Portsmouth City Park adds outdoor space beyond the lot itself. Mid-century construction in this price corridor typically delivers larger room dimensions than comparable square footage in newer builds.
