5629 Springwood Dr, Portsmouth, VA 23703

Why this home stands out

What sets 5629 Springwood Drive apart is the combination of square footage, bedroom-and-bath count, and location that's hard to match among Portsmouth homes for sale at this size. Four bedrooms and three full baths in a 2,132-square-foot footprint means real flexibility — whether you need a dedicated home office, a guest suite, or simply room to spread out. The 1975 construction era typically delivers solid bones: larger lot sizes, wider floor plans, and mature landscaping that newer subdivisions simply can't replicate.

BELVEDERE and the Portsmouth real estate market

Springwood Drive sits in the Churchland section of Portsmouth — one of the city's most established residential corridors, where tree-lined streets and mid-century homes give the area a settled, lived-in character that newer developments often lack. Churchland has long been a go-to for families and professionals who want suburban breathing room without sacrificing proximity to everything Hampton Roads has to offer. Portsmouth itself spans both sides of the Elizabeth River and connects seamlessly to Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Suffolk, making it a genuine crossroads city. Commuters appreciate the quick access to Interstate 664 and Route 17. If you're comparing homes for sale in Portsmouth, Churchland tends to stand out for its walkable retail clusters, community feel, and consistent demand — qualities that make a neighborhood worth putting down roots in rather than just passing through.
