Why this home stands out
What sets 45 Salem Street apart is the trifecta of proximity: a walkable block to King Street Linear Park, a short stroll to multiple dining options, and a five-minute drive to Langley AFB's main gate. For a mid-century home with four bedrooms, that kind of all-in-one access to green space, food, and the base is genuinely hard to replicate in Hampton at this square footage.
FAIRVIEW FARMS and the Hampton real estate market
Salem Street sits in a quiet residential pocket of Hampton, Virginia — a city that punches well above its weight when it comes to history, waterfront character, and military heritage. Hampton is the oldest continuously English-speaking settlement in the country, and that deep-rooted identity shows up in the neighborhoods: mature trees, solid mid-century construction, and a community that knows its neighbors. The streets around Salem are walkable and calm without feeling remote. You're close enough to Hampton's downtown waterfront corridor to enjoy it on a weekend afternoon, yet far enough from the tourist bustle to come home to something peaceful. City services, parks, and everyday retail are all within easy reach, and the broader Peninsula gives you quick access to Newport News, Norfolk, and the wider Hampton Roads metro.
