Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

Four bedrooms, three baths, 2,600 square feet on a solid 1963-built home in Norfolk. You're about eight minutes from Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and nine from Naval Station Norfolk. Daily life is easy here with groceries, dining, and parks all within walking distance.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

This 1963 home sits on a quiet block with established trees and plenty of room to work with. The layout gives you four bedrooms and three full baths—space to spread out without feeling cramped. You'll find Norfolk homes for sale across many price points, but this one offers genuine square footage and a classic floor plan that works for how people actually live today.

ROLAND PARK and the Norfolk real estate market

Roland Drive is a tree-lined street in a stable Norfolk neighborhood where you can walk to Lakewood Park in minutes. The block has a mix of well-maintained single-family homes, many from the same era, giving the area real character and consistency. You're close enough to the water to feel connected to the region's maritime heritage, but far enough inland to avoid the busiest tourist zones. Norfolk itself is Virginia's largest city by population, built around a deep-water harbor and a strong military and commercial presence. Getting around is straightforward—major roads like Military Highway and Granby Street connect you to the rest of the region. If you are comparing homes for sale in 23509, note that this zip code spans several distinct neighborhoods, each with its own rhythm. The city offers museums, restaurants, a working waterfront, and plenty of green space for outdoor life.

What's nearby

Food Lion is just a third of a mile away for everyday groceries, and Angel Food Mart and La Botica Hispana are close by too. Dining happens fast here—Golden Pizzeria, Luther Arcree, and Golden City III are all within a few blocks. Lakewood Park is practically next door, perfect for a quick walk or afternoon outside. Chesapeake Athletic Club is under a mile away if you want a gym membership, and coffee runs to 7-Eleven or Forkin' to Fitness are easy stops on your way.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about eight minutes away; Naval Station Norfolk is nine. This location works well for active-duty and civilian personnel with base ties. VA loan financing is common in this area, and the home's 2,600 square feet and established layout mean minimal prep before move-in.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms give everyone their own space, and three full baths cut down on morning conflicts. The lot size and 1963 layout offer room to add storage or reconfigure as your needs change. A solid foundation and classic floor plan mean you're not fighting the bones of the house—you're working with them.

Data sources: Flood zone and base flood elevation come from FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer. Property elevation is sampled from a single point on the parcel using the USGS National Map elevation service — actual elevations across a single property can vary by several feet higher or lower than the figure shown. Use these numbers as a starting reference and do your own due diligence (a professional survey or elevation certificate) before relying on them for any financial, insurance, or construction decision.
