Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the rare combination of military-base proximity and genuine walkability. JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is literally a three-minute drive, yet you're also steps from East Beach's fountain square, a neighborhood market, and waterfront dining. At 1,886 square feet across three bedrooms, this 2007-built unit offers more room than most condos in the zip code, without trading away the convenience of a low-maintenance lifestyle.
EAST BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market
Pleasant Ave sits inside Norfolk's East Ocean View community, a stretch of the city where the Chesapeake Bay shoreline shapes the personality of every block. East Ocean View has been quietly evolving for years — the East Beach master-planned development brought new construction, a fountain square, and a walkable village feel that's unusual for this part of Norfolk. Streets here are lined with a mix of newer builds and classic coastal cottages, and the vibe leans relaxed and neighborly. The broader Norfolk context matters too: this is one of the largest cities in Virginia, home to a massive military presence, a growing arts scene downtown, and easy access to the rest of Hampton Roads via I-64. For anyone searching for Norfolk real estate that puts you close to the water and close to base without a long commute, East Ocean View consistently delivers. The neighborhood draws a mix of military families, young professionals, and long-time locals who simply love waking up near the bay.
