Why this home stands out
New construction in an established neighborhood is a rare find, and 502 Susan Street delivers exactly that. Built in 2025, this four-bedroom, 2.5-bath home gives you fresh systems, modern finishes, and a full warranty period — without the long commute that often comes with new builds on the suburban fringe. Hodges Park puts you minutes from Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and Norfolk Naval Shipyard while keeping grocery runs genuinely short.
HODGES PARK and the Portsmouth real estate market
Hodges Park sits in the southern tier of Portsmouth, a city that often surprises newcomers with how much it quietly offers. The neighborhood has a settled, residential feel — tree-lined streets, a mix of longtime owners, and a pace that lets you actually breathe. Portsmouth itself carries real history: it's home to one of the oldest naval shipyards in the country and a walkable Olde Towne district with waterfront dining and galleries just a few miles north. Hodges Park benefits from that broader city energy without the traffic that comes with living right in the middle of it. Streets here connect easily to Interstate 264 and Highway 58, so whether you're heading to Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, or Norfolk, you're not fighting the grid to get there. It's the kind of neighborhood where people tend to stay once they arrive — and 502 Susan Street, as one of the newest homes on the block, is a strong reason why.

TIGER Academy of Martial Arts is 0.2 miles away for after-school or weekend training, and Portsmouth Volleyball Center is equally close.

For military families relocating
Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and Norfolk Naval Shipyard are each about ten minutes from the front door — a commute that makes daily life noticeably simpler when duty schedules shift without warning.

For first-time buyers
Buying your first home and buying new construction at the same time is a combination that's hard to beat. At 502 Susan Street, you're not inheriting someone else's deferred maintenance — everything is fresh, under warranty, and built to current code. Four bedrooms gives you room to grow, and the Hodges Park location keeps you close to groceries, parks, and dining without paying a premium for a trendier zip code.
