About this home

Renovated 1947 cottage with a detached garage on just under a quarter acre in Wards Corner, between I-64 and Naval Station Norfolk. The original heart-pine floors have been refinished.

The kitchen has new granite counters with an undermount stainless sink, white shaker cabinets, a stainless double-oven range and the original scallop-valance shelves. Two bedrooms, a full bath with beadboard, and an attic bonus loft with sloped ceilings. Fresh paint inside and out and a covered front porch. Out back, the garage is 19 by 23 feet inside, and the yard is deep enough for a garden. Flood Zone X.

Why this home stands out

What sets 544 Timothy Ave apart is its location. Four minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and five minutes to MARFORCOM Norfolk puts two of the region's largest installations within easy reach. The surrounding streets carry the quiet, established character of a mid-century Norfolk neighborhood. Millers coffee shop is two-tenths of a mile away. Brown Suga Hip Hop Soulfood Cafe and Homemade Pierogi are both under half a mile. Daily errands rarely require a long drive.

SUSSEX OF NORFOLK and the Norfolk real estate market

Timothy Ave sits in a residential pocket of north Norfolk, where post-war bungalows and cottages line modest, tree-shaded streets. The homes here were mostly built in the 1940s and 1950s, giving the area a consistent, low-key character. Lots are compact, and neighbors tend to know each other. Titustown Park is half a mile away, offering open green space close to home. North Shore Road Playground is just over half a mile out. SeaBee Plaza adds another nearby outdoor option at eight-tenths of a mile. Norfolk itself is one of the most historically layered cities on the East Coast. The waterfront, the Ghent arts district, and downtown Norfolk are all reachable within fifteen to twenty minutes. Interstate 64 is accessible nearby, connecting you to Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and the wider Hampton Roads region. Anyone comparing Norfolk homes for sale will find that this zip code offers unusually quick access to the bases without sacrificing city convenience.

What's nearby

Millers coffee shop is just two-tenths of a mile from the front door — close enough to walk on a weekday morning. Brown Suga Hip Hop Soulfood Cafe and Wan Shung Chinese Restaurant are both about three-tenths of a mile out. Homemade Pierogi rounds out the local dining options at four-tenths of a mile. For fitness, NH-30 Gym is seven-tenths of a mile away, and Hopkins Hall Gymnasium and Semper FITT are each about eight-tenths of a mile. Titustown Park and North Shore Road Playground give you green space within a short walk or bike ride.
