Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the combination of genuine waterfront-adjacent living and an almost unbeatable commute to two major military installations. Willoughby Beach puts you within half a mile of multiple bay beach access points, yet you're back at Naval Station Norfolk in four minutes flat. For a 2-bed, 2-bath condo built in 1988, the location-to-lifestyle ratio here is genuinely hard to match anywhere else in Norfolk.
WILLOUGHBY BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market
Willoughby Beach sits at the northern tip of Norfolk, where the city meets the Chesapeake Bay in a way that feels more like a tucked-away beach town than a major metro neighborhood. Streets here run close to the water, neighbors know each other by name, and the pace slows down the moment you cross into the area. It's one of the more distinctive pockets of norfolk real estate — a place where you can walk to the bay in the morning and still be on base or downtown before your coffee gets cold. The broader Norfolk context matters too: the city is a hub of military, maritime, and creative energy, with a waterfront downtown, a growing food scene, and easy access to the rest of Hampton Roads via I-64. Willoughby Beach gives you all of that without sacrificing the neighborhood feel that makes a place actually feel like home. The 23503 zip code covers this corner of the city, and it consistently draws buyers who want proximity to the water and the base without the resort-town price tag.
What's nearby
Daily life is easy here. Swell Charcoal Grill and Raw Bar is just half a mile away when you want a proper sit-down meal, and the Ocean View Fishing Pier Restaurant at 0.9 miles adds another waterfront dining option worth having in your rotation. A 7-Eleven at the half-mile mark handles quick coffee runs and convenience needs. For outdoor time, 12th View Beach Access is a half-mile walk, 13th View Street Beach Access is 0.7 miles, and Local Beach rounds out your options at one mile. The bay is genuinely part of everyday life at this address — not just a weekend destination.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Four minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and five minutes to MARFORCOM Norfolk makes 867 Little Bay Ave #3 one of the most commute-friendly addresses in the city for active-duty families.

You get two bedrooms, two full baths, and a neighborhood with genuine character — beach access, local restaurants, and a tight-knit community — without taking on a large lot or extensive maintenance. It's a real home in a real neighborhood, not just a starter box.
