Why this home stands out
Built in 1966, this ground-floor unit carries the kind of solid mid-century bones that newer construction rarely matches — thick walls, generous room proportions, and a layout that gives a one-bedroom home two full baths, a rare configuration that works equally well for a live-in owner who wants a private guest suite or a home-office setup with its own bath. Downtown Norfolk is literally outside the door, and that address is hard to replicate.
DOWNTOWN AREA and the Norfolk real estate market
Saint Pauls Boulevard runs through the civic spine of Norfolk, Virginia — a city of roughly 240,000 that anchors the western edge of Hampton Roads. The blocks around #112 sit within walking distance of MacArthur Center, the Chrysler Museum of Art, and the Elizabeth River waterfront, so daily life here has a genuine urban pulse. Restaurants, coffee shops, and green spaces are measured in tenths of miles rather than driving minutes. Norfolk's downtown has been investing steadily in streetscaping, mixed-use development, and waterfront access, and the results are visible at street level. For buyers comparing homes for sale in Norfolk, the 23510 zip code is one of the few places in the region where you can walk to a museum, a park, and a quick-service meal before noon without touching your car keys. The city's light-rail Tide line and ferry connections to Portsmouth add transit options that most Hampton Roads addresses simply don't have.

Kantodo coffee shop is a 0.3-mile walk, and Vessel City Hall adds another café option at 0.5 miles. Misa City Park and the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial are both 0.2 miles out, giving you green space close enough for a morning walk.

For different buyers
For military families relocating
USCG Base Portsmouth and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth are each about two minutes by car — a commute that's almost unheard of in Hampton Roads. A VA loan can make this condo especially accessible, and the two-bath layout means a deployed spouse returning home doesn't have to share a bathroom with a houseguest. For military households weighing homes for sale in 23510, this address checks the commute box decisively.
For first-time buyers
A one-bedroom, two-bath floor plan in downtown Norfolk gives a first-time buyer real flexibility — use the second bath as a dedicated guest bath, a home-office suite, or simply enjoy the extra breathing room. At 1,033 square feet, the unit is compact enough to manage but large enough to live in comfortably. Buyers exploring homes for sale in Norfolk for the first time will find the walkable location reduces the need for a second car, which can meaningfully change a monthly budget.
