Why this home stands out

Multi-family properties of this size are uncommon this close to two major installations. Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about five minutes away, and USCG Base Portsmouth is roughly six. The 1960 build gives the structure a mid-century bones that holds up well in this part of Norfolk. At 2,160 square feet, there's real square footage to work with across the units.

COLONIAL PLACE and the Norfolk real estate market

The 38th Street corridor sits in a quiet, established section of Norfolk where mid-century homes line wide residential streets. Carolina Circle is just a block away, giving the block a green anchor. Meditation Park and Colonial Circle are both within a short walk, adding more open space nearby. The housing stock here runs toward brick ranches and two-story frame homes from the 1950s and 1960s. It's a grounded, walkable stretch of the city with a neighborhood feel that's held steady for decades. Norfolk itself is one of the most connected cities on the East Coast. Interstate 264 and the Downtown Tunnel put you into Virginia Beach or Portsmouth in under 20 minutes. The city's waterfront, Ghent arts district, and MacArthur Center are all within a reasonable drive. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Norfolk will notice that 23508 punches above its weight for location.
