About this home

The listing, in the seller's words

Charming Architectural Antebellum in Olde Towne Historic District by the water & centrally located near interstates & entertainment. Just at the end of the road is ferry access to Downtown Norfolk and a beautiful view of the water and great views that Old Towne has to offer. Such a unique history in this city and this home. The home once served as an orphanage for kids during the war. Great opportunity for those looking for an incoming producing property in a highly sought after area.
