406 Lee St, Hampton, VA 23669

Why this home stands out

Few homes in Hampton carry more than a century of history in their bones the way 406 Lee Street does. Built in 1893, this 1,480-square-foot residence blends Victorian-era architectural character with the practical appeal of a walkable downtown location. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and a footprint that feels larger than it sounds — this is the kind of address that rewards buyers who appreciate craftsmanship and a genuine sense of place.

WEST HAMPTON and the Hampton real estate market

Lee Street sits in one of Hampton's oldest residential corridors, where tree-lined blocks and late-19th-century homes give the area a distinctly unhurried, rooted feel. Hampton itself is one of the oldest continuously inhabited English-speaking settlements in the United States, and that history is visible in the architecture and street grid surrounding 406 Lee Street. You're within easy reach of the downtown waterfront, the Virginia Air & Space Center, and the broader Phoebus district — all of which give this part of Hampton a cultural texture you simply don't find in newer suburbs. The city sits at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, so water views, marinas, and waterfront dining are never far. Hampton's compact geography also means that daily errands, parks, and fitness facilities are genuinely walkable from this address, making car-optional living more realistic here than almost anywhere else in Hampton Roads.
