by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · LPT Realty

At a glance

474 Harcourt Place is a four-bedroom, 2.5-bath single-family home in Newport News, Virginia, offering 2,194 square feet of living space built in 1972 — just eight minutes from Joint Base Langley-Eustis and a short drive to everyday essentials.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 474 Harcourt Place apart is the combination of generous square footage, a half-bath that keeps daily routines running smoothly, and a location that puts Fort Eustis practically around the corner. At over 2,100 square feet across four bedrooms, there's real room to spread out — whether you're working from home, hosting family, or simply need space that grows with you. The 1972 construction era means solid bones and established lot character you won't find in newer subdivisions.

LANSDOWNE and the Newport News real estate market

Harcourt Place sits in the 23602 zip code on Newport News's northwest side — a part of the city where tree-lined streets carry a settled, residential feel that newer developments rarely replicate. The surrounding blocks are a mix of long-time owners and families who've discovered that this corner of Newport News delivers everyday convenience without the congestion of the city's busier corridors. Newport News itself spans from the James River to the York River and anchors the western end of Hampton Roads, giving residents access to a full metro area while keeping commutes manageable. Families comparing homes for sale in Newport News often find that the 23602 corridor hits a practical sweet spot — close to both major employment centers and the kind of quiet neighborhood fabric that makes coming home feel like a genuine exhale.

What's nearby

Nicewood Park is just 0.4 miles away, making it easy to get outside for a morning walk, an afternoon with kids, or an evening wind-down without getting in the car. Beyond the park, the broader Newport News grid puts grocery stores, pharmacies, and dining options within a short drive along Jefferson Avenue and Warwick Boulevard — two of the city's main commercial spines. Naval Weapons Station Yorktown is roughly 17 minutes north, adding a second base option for households with dual-military schedules or contractors working across installations.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Eight minutes to Joint Base Langley-Eustis makes 474 Harcourt Place a practical anchor for active-duty households. Four bedrooms handle PCS moves with ease, and the half-bath keeps morning routines from becoming a bottleneck. A VA loan is a natural fit here, and with Naval Weapons Station Yorktown only 17 minutes away, dual-military families have real flexibility built into the commute.

For families upgrading

If your current home has started to feel tight, 2,194 square feet across four bedrooms gives everyone room to breathe. Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Menchville High School and homes for sale zoned for T. Ryland Sanford Elementary School will find that 474 Harcourt Place puts both schools within reach while keeping Nicewood Park just a short walk from the front door.
