Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 474 Harcourt Place apart is the combination of generous square footage and a layout that actually makes sense for daily life — four true bedrooms, a half-bath on the main level, and enough room to spread out without feeling like you're rattling around in empty space. Homes with this footprint in Newport News at this zip code tend to attract buyers who want room to grow without sacrificing proximity to the base.

LANSDOWNE and the Newport News real estate market

The 23602 zip code sits in the northwestern corner of Newport News, a part of the city that feels a little more suburban and a little less rushed than the waterfront corridors closer to downtown. Streets here tend to be quiet and residential, with mature trees lining the blocks and neighbors who have often been around long enough to know each other's names. Newport News itself is one of the larger cities in the Hampton Roads metro, anchored by a deep shipbuilding and military heritage that gives the local economy real stability. The city spans from the James River shoreline all the way north toward the York County line, and the 23602 pocket sits close enough to that northern edge to make commutes toward Williamsburg or Yorktown genuinely manageable. Daily errands, parks, and major retail corridors are all within a short drive, and the overall pace of the neighborhood strikes a balance between accessibility and breathing room.

What's nearby

Nicewood Park is just 0.4 miles from the front door — an easy walk for an afternoon out or a quick morning run before work. Beyond the park, the broader area along Jefferson Avenue and Warwick Boulevard puts grocery stores, pharmacies, and casual dining within a short drive. Joint Base Langley-Eustis is roughly eight minutes away, making the morning commute straightforward for service members stationed there. Naval Weapons Station Yorktown adds a second base option about 17 minutes out, which broadens the appeal for households with assignments that could shift between installations.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Eight minutes to Joint Base Langley-Eustis and 17 minutes to Naval Weapons Station Yorktown — 474 Harcourt Place puts two major installations within easy reach. Four bedrooms handle PCS moves with kids in tow, and a VA loan can make financing this Newport News home straightforward for eligible service members and veterans.

For families upgrading

If your current home has you sharing bathrooms or doubling up bedrooms, 474 Harcourt Place offers a real step up. Four bedrooms and 2,194 square feet give everyone their own space, and a half-bath on the main level means the morning rush is a little less chaotic. Nicewood Park is a short walk away when the kids need to burn off energy.
