Why this home stands out

Built in 1942, this 1,454-square-foot home carries the solid bones and character of mid-century residential Norfolk. Three bedrooms and 1.1 baths fit comfortably into a straightforward layout. The location puts you close to daily essentials—groceries, coffee, and dining—without the noise of a major commercial corridor. It's the kind of address that anchors homes for sale in 23502 where proximity to base and neighborhood walkability matter.

PRINCESS ANNE PARK and the Norfolk real estate market

This stretch of Ashby Street reflects Norfolk's residential core: tree-lined blocks with single-family homes built in the early-to-mid twentieth century. The neighborhood has a settled, unpretentious character—neighbors know the block, and the pace is steady. You're in Norfolk, a city with deep military roots and a working waterfront. Getting around is straightforward: local streets connect easily to the main corridors, and JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is just eight minutes away by car. Anyone comparing Norfolk homes for sale will notice how central this location feels. The city itself sprawls across the southeastern Virginia peninsula, with downtown and the waterfront to the south and east. Public transit and local roads keep daily errands simple.

The Blackdog Cafe sits just a tenth of a mile away—perfect for morning coffee or a quick lunch. Market Connections Co and Azalea Food Mart handle groceries within walking distance. Mama lu's soul food restaurant is three blocks over. For fitness, North FoxHall FitLot Outdoor Fitness Park and 1STRING Sports Training are both under half a mile. North Foxhall Playground and Princess Anne Park offer green space and recreation. Everything you need for daily life clusters within a five-minute walk or short drive.
