Why this home stands out

Homes in Poplar Halls that crack 2,400 square feet are genuinely uncommon, and this 1959-built property delivers that room count alongside three full baths — a configuration that gives larger households real breathing space. The mid-century footprint means generous room proportions rather than the chopped-up layouts you sometimes find in newer builds, and the 0.17-acre lot gives you a proper yard without an overwhelming maintenance burden.

POPLAR HALLS and the Norfolk real estate market

Poplar Halls is one of those established Norfolk neighborhoods where the streets are lined with mature trees and neighbors actually know each other's names. The housing stock dates mostly from the late 1950s through the 1960s, giving the area a cohesive, low-key character that newer subdivisions rarely replicate. Berry Hill Road sits comfortably inside that fabric — quiet enough for evening walks, connected enough that daily errands barely require a second thought. Norfolk is an independent city in Virginia, meaning it operates outside any surrounding county — a detail worth knowing if you've ever searched 'norfolk va in what county' and landed on a confusing answer. The city functions as its own jurisdiction within Hampton Roads, handling its own services and governance. That independence also means Poplar Halls residents are squarely within Norfolk city limits, with direct access to city parks, services, and infrastructure. Poplar Hall Park is just half a mile away, and the broader neighborhood has a settled, lived-in energy that tends to attract buyers who want substance over flash.

What's nearby

Daily life is genuinely easy from Berry Hill Road. Royal Bazaar Indian Asian Market and Planet Fitness are both within a third of a mile, so groceries and workouts are practically on your doorstep. Trinidad Latin Store and Royal Farms are a short four-tenths of a mile out for additional shopping options. When you want to eat out, Cool Flames Cafe, Tamarind Restaurant, and Americas Greatest Wings Gyro & Pizza are all within the same radius. Coffee runs are covered by Cool Flames Cafe, Dunkin', and Tim Hortons — all within half a mile. Crunch Fitness in Norfolk is one mile out if you prefer a larger gym, and Poplar Hall Park is an easy half-mile stroll for outdoor time.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

USCG Base Portsmouth and Norfolk Naval Shipyard are each about nine minutes away — a commute that makes morning formation stress-free on most days. VA loan eligibility can stretch meaningfully further here given the square footage you're getting, and BAH rates for the Hampton Roads area align well with what a four-bedroom home in Poplar Halls represents. It's a practical, comfortable base for a military household.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and three full baths across 2,495 square feet means everyone gets their own space — including a dedicated bath that doesn't require a morning traffic jam. The 1959 construction delivers room sizes that feel intentional rather than squeezed, and the half-mile walk to Poplar Hall Park gives kids somewhere to actually go. If you've been crowded in a smaller home, this address changes the math considerably.
