Why this home stands out

The 1,403-square-foot layout spans three full bedrooms and 3.1 baths—rare efficiency for a home of this era and size. Original architectural details meet modern living. A quarter-acre lot in a dense, established neighborhood means you're never far from what you need. Walking distance to dining, fitness, and daily errands shapes a lifestyle that doesn't depend on constant driving.

OLD DOMINION PLACE and the Norfolk real estate market

Old Dominion Place is a walkable, tree-lined neighborhood where 1910s and 1920s homes sit close together on modest lots. The streets feel lived-in and connected—neighbors know each other, and foot traffic is normal. You'll find independent coffee shops, casual restaurants, and boutique fitness studios within a block or two. Norfolk itself is Virginia's largest city, home to Naval Station Norfolk and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth. Getting around is straightforward: downtown is minutes away, the waterfront is accessible, and the interstate is nearby. If you're comparing homes for sale in Norfolk, note that Old Dominion Place offers genuine walkability and neighborhood character that newer suburbs can't match. Anyone comparing homes for sale zoned for James Monroe Elementary School and homes for sale zoned for Kings Daughters Hosp. Ep. will find this address sits in a central location with strong access to both.

What's nearby

Caffiend Coffee Co and Kobros Coffee are steps away for your morning routine. For groceries, TASTE, Edible Arrangements, and ALDI are all within a short walk. Dining options include 350 Grace, Pizza Slice, and A W Shucks Raw Bar & Grill—all on or near your block. Fitness studios like Burn Boot Camp, Pure Barre, and Jazzercise Norfolk at Mambo Room are close by. Munson Park, Ghent Dog Park, and Van Wyck Mews offer outdoor space for recreation and relaxation.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about four minutes away; USCG Base Portsmouth is five minutes. VA loan financing is common in this zip code. The walkable block and compact lot mean less yard maintenance and lower utility costs. Quick commute and established neighborhood character.

Room to grow

Three bedrooms and 3.1 baths give you room to spread out without excess square footage to heat and cool. The original floor plan is efficient; you're not paying for wasted space. A compact lot and nearby parks handle outdoor needs. Storage and layout adapt to how you actually live.
