Why this home stands out
Five thousand square feet is a serious amount of space, and 504 W Ocean View Ave puts every bit of it to work. Built in 2004, the home delivers four bedrooms, three full baths, and two half baths across a floor plan that gives everyone room to spread out. The Willoughby Beach location adds something no floor plan can manufacture: direct proximity to the bay, a walkable shoreline, and one of the shortest commutes to Naval Station Norfolk you'll find anywhere in the city.
WILLOUGHBY BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market
Willoughby Beach is one of Norfolk's most distinctive waterfront communities — a compact, tight-knit strip of homes where the Chesapeake Bay is a genuine neighbor, not just a marketing line. The streets here have a relaxed, coastal energy: neighbors walk to the water in the morning, kayakers launch from the shore, and the fishing pier is practically a community gathering spot. For anyone evaluating military housing Norfolk-wide, Willoughby Beach consistently stands out because of how efficiently it connects military life with waterfront living. Naval Station Norfolk is five minutes by car, and MARFORCOM Norfolk is just six. Norfolk itself offers a full urban core — downtown dining, the Chrysler Museum, Nauticus, and a thriving arts district — all within a reasonable drive. The neighborhood sits in Norfolk's northern tip, giving it a quieter, almost tucked-away feel while keeping everything the city offers well within reach.
What's nearby
Daily life is easy from this address. Harris Teeter, Beach Bay Mart, and Dollar General are all within 0.7 miles for grocery runs. When you'd rather let someone else cook, Ocean View Fishing Pier Restaurant is just 0.2 miles away, The OV Beach Tavern is 0.6 miles out, and a 7-Eleven is a quick 0.3-mile trip for late-night snacks. Coffee is covered by Mudita Cafe & Bar and Starbucks, both under a mile. Ocean View Yoga and The Yoga Space keep fitness close to home. Sarah Constant Beach Park and Local Beach are both 0.3 miles away, and Charles Hughes Maritime Forest is just 0.4 miles for trail walks.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Naval Station Norfolk is a five-minute drive from 504 W Ocean View Ave, and MARFORCOM Norfolk is six. That kind of proximity changes daily life — shorter commutes, more time at home, and a neighborhood full of families who understand the rhythm of military schedules. VA loan eligibility can make a home at this address even more accessible, and BAH rates in the Norfolk area are worth running the numbers on.
For families upgrading
If your current home feels like it's running out of room, 5,003 square feet has a way of solving that problem. Four bedrooms and five bathrooms mean everyone gets their own space, and the Willoughby Beach location adds a lifestyle upgrade that square footage alone can't deliver — beach access, a walkable shoreline, and a neighborhood with genuine character. This is the kind of address that grows with a family.
