This four-bedroom, three-bath home sits on a quiet Chesapeake block just minutes from Norfolk Naval Shipyard. Built in 1934, it offers 1,588 square feet of classic character. You're walking distance to parks, shops, and dining.
The 1934 construction brings vintage charm to a practical floor plan. Four bedrooms and three full baths give you flexibility for a home office, guest room, or hobby space. The location cuts your commute to the shipyard to about six minutes, and everyday errands are close by. This is the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23324.
PORTLOCK TERRACE and the Chesapeake real estate market
Bainbridge Boulevard runs through a residential Chesapeake neighborhood where tree-lined streets and established homes define the character. You'll find a mix of vintage and mid-century properties, each on its own lot with room to breathe. The area has a settled, lived-in feel—not brand new, but well-rooted. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's largest city by area, blending suburban comfort with urban services. Getting around is straightforward: major routes like Route 17 and Interstate 64 are nearby for longer trips. The city center and downtown Norfolk are both within twenty minutes. If you are comparing homes for sale in Chesapeake, note that this zip code sits in the heart of the working waterfront and military corridor.

Special Flood Hazard Area — 1% annual chance of flooding. Federal flood insurance is required on most mortgages.
Data sources: Flood zone and base flood elevation come from FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer. Property elevation is sampled from a single point on the parcel using the USGS National Map elevation service — actual elevations across a single property can vary by several feet higher or lower than the figure shown. Use these numbers as a starting reference and do your own due diligence (a professional survey or elevation certificate) before relying on them for any financial, insurance, or construction decision.
Zone AE typically means lenders require flood insurance. Factor it into the monthly numbers below.
