4636 Mallard Cres, Portsmouth, VA 23703

Why this home stands out

What sets 4636 Mallard Crescent apart is its combination of four true bedrooms and a cul-de-sac-style crescent street in a neighborhood that puts two major military installations within a single-digit commute. At 1,508 square feet on a 1967 footprint, the layout is efficient without feeling cramped, and the Churchland corridor around it has quietly become one of Portsmouth's most convenient everyday-living addresses.

HUNTERS POINT and the Portsmouth real estate market

Mallard Crescent sits inside Portsmouth's Churchland community — a western district that feels more like a self-contained town than a city neighborhood. Tree-lined residential streets give way quickly to a full commercial corridor along Churchland Boulevard and Western Branch Road, so errands, dining, and daily routines rarely require a highway. Portsmouth as a whole carries a lot of history — it's one of the oldest cities in Virginia — but Churchland has its own identity: practical, unpretentious, and genuinely convenient. Families comparing homes for sale in Portsmouth often land here once they realize how much ground you can cover without leaving the zip code. The broader city connects easily to Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Suffolk via I-664 and Route 17, making Portsmouth a natural hub for anyone working across Hampton Roads.

Day-to-day convenience is built into this address. A 7-Eleven just 0.6 miles away handles quick coffee runs and grab-and-go needs.

When you need to stretch your legs, Churchland Park is under a mile away — 0.9 miles — with open green space that works well for morning walks or an afternoon with kids. Among homes for sale in 23703, this block's walkable access to everyday stops is a quiet but real advantage.
