Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Built in 1932, this home carries authentic period charm—original bones and thoughtful layout across two stories. Four bedrooms give you real flexibility for a home office, guest room, or hobby space. You're steps from coffee shops, grocers, and restaurants, plus a quick drive to the medical center and Coast Guard base. The bones are here; the location is strong.

COLONIAL PLACE and the Norfolk real estate market

This block sits in a walkable pocket of Norfolk where tree-lined streets meet local energy. Rhode Island Circle park is two blocks away, and Voyager Coffee, Elation Brewing, and Bakehouse Pizza anchor the immediate surroundings. The neighborhood has the feel of a place where neighbors know each other and foot traffic is normal. Norfolk itself is a city of water, history, and working waterfronts—you're close to downtown, the Elizabeth River, and the heart of the military community. Getting around is straightforward: Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about six minutes north, and the Coast Guard base is seven minutes away. If you're comparing homes for sale in Norfolk, note that this location trades sprawl for walkability and authentic neighborhood character.

What's nearby

The Ten Top Market and Westside Produce and Provisions sit just a few blocks away for everyday groceries.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms let you claim space for work, guests, or hobbies without feeling cramped. Two full baths plus a half bath ease morning routines.
