Why this home stands out
Four bedrooms and five full baths across 3,652 square feet is a rare combination in this price range of Norfolk — most homes this size top out at three baths. The 1966 construction gives the home solid bones and generous room proportions you simply don't find in newer builds, while the layout's extra bathrooms make multi-generational living or a busy household genuinely comfortable rather than a daily negotiation.
LAKEWOOD and the Norfolk real estate market
5718 Shenandoah Avenue sits in a residential stretch of Norfolk, Virginia, a city that consistently draws people looking for space, character, and proximity to the water and the military installations that anchor Hampton Roads. This part of Norfolk has a lived-in, established feel — mature trees, sidewalked streets, and neighbors who have been around long enough to wave hello. If you've been searching through houses for sale Norfolk has to offer and keep finding yourself underwhelmed by tight square footage or cookie-cutter layouts, Shenandoah Avenue is worth a closer look. Norfolk as a whole is a city of distinct neighborhoods, each with its own personality, and this corridor benefits from easy access to both downtown Norfolk and the broader Hampton Roads highway network. Lakewood Park is practically around the corner, and the surrounding streets have the kind of quiet, residential rhythm that makes everyday life feel unhurried without feeling remote.
What's nearby
Daily errands are genuinely easy from Shenandoah Avenue. Food Lion is 0.8 miles away for your main grocery run, and Angel Food Mart is the same distance when you need a quick stop. Eat By Sims is just half a mile out — a local spot worth knowing. Golden Pizzeria at 0.7 miles covers pizza nights, and the 7-Eleven at 0.6 miles handles coffee and last-minute needs. For outdoor time, Lakewood Park is only 0.4 miles away, and Roland Park Playground is a half-mile walk — both solid options when the kids or the dog need some air.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and Naval Station Norfolk are each about eight minutes from your front door — that kind of dual-base proximity is hard to beat in Hampton Roads. Whether you're using a VA loan to make the purchase work or stretching BAH as far as it will go, 3,652 square feet and five baths means the whole family has room to breathe through every PCS cycle.
For families upgrading
If your current home has everyone tripping over each other, 5718 Shenandoah Avenue offers a genuine upgrade. Four bedrooms and five baths across 3,652 square feet means dedicated space for everyone — homework, guests, hobbies, and still room left over. The 1966 construction means larger rooms and real closets, not the narrow afterthoughts common in newer builds. Lakewood Park and Roland Park Playground are both under half a mile away for after-school energy burns.
