Why this home stands out
What sets 625 E Princess Anne Road apart is its rare combination of urban walkability and near-instant base access in a city where that pairing is genuinely hard to find. Three parks, a climbing gym, a soul food spot, and a Korean coffee bar are all within a half-mile radius — yet Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is just a three-minute drive away. For a 1,616-square-foot home built in 1994, it punches well above its footprint in terms of daily convenience.
ALL OTHERS AREA 12 and the Norfolk real estate market
625 E Princess Anne Road sits in a central Norfolk corridor that blends residential calm with genuine urban energy. The surrounding blocks have a lived-in, community-oriented feel — think front porches, mature trees, and neighbors who actually know each other. Crispus Attucks Park is just down the street, and both Huntersville Park and Martin Luther King Jr Plaza are within a short walk, giving the area a green, open character that's easy to underestimate from a map. Norfolk itself is one of the most dynamic cities on the East Coast — home to the world's largest naval station, a growing arts and food scene, and a waterfront that continues to draw investment. The 23510 zip code places you near the heart of it all, with quick access to downtown Norfolk's restaurants, venues, and employment centers. Whether you're drawn by the military mission, the culture, or simply the value that Norfolk consistently offers compared to neighboring cities, this address puts you squarely in the middle of what makes the region worth planting roots in.
