4624 Kemp Dr, Portsmouth, VA 23703

Why this home stands out

What sets 4624 Kemp Drive apart is its combination of mid-century bones and a location that genuinely earns its keep. Eight minutes to Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and nine to NSA Northwest Annex means two major installations are both within a short drive. The 1,540-square-foot layout across three bedrooms and two full baths gives you real room without the overhead of a sprawling footprint — practical, livable, and easy to make your own.

GREEN ACRES and the Portsmouth real estate market

Portsmouth is one of Hampton Roads' original cities, and the 23703 zip code sits in its northwestern corner — the Churchland corridor — where the pace is a little quieter and the streets a little wider than you'd find closer to the waterfront. This part of Portsmouth has a settled, residential feel: established trees, modest lots, and neighbors who tend to stick around. It's the kind of area where you know the block within a week. The city itself punches above its weight for character — the Olde Towne historic district, the waterfront, and a genuine arts scene are all part of Portsmouth's identity, even if Kemp Drive keeps you comfortably away from the bustle. Families comparing homes for sale in Portsmouth often land in the Churchland area specifically because it offers easy access to both the interstate and the bases without feeling like a commuter suburb.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy from Kemp Drive. The Portsmouth YMCA is just 0.4 miles away — close enough to walk on a good morning — making it simple to build a fitness routine without rearranging your schedule. Interstate 664 access puts you within reach of the broader Hampton Roads network in minutes, whether you're heading to Chesapeake, Suffolk, or crossing over to the Peninsula. Grocery runs, pharmacies, and the everyday errands that fill a week are all handled along the nearby Churchland commercial corridor without a long drive in either direction.
