Why this home stands out

This is a substantial home with real room to spread out. Five bedrooms mean dedicated space for an office, guest room, or hobby area. Four full baths plus a powder room eliminate morning traffic. The 1985 construction speaks to solid bones and a floor plan built for living, not cramped layouts. You're in an established neighborhood where homes have character and space isn't a luxury.

GHENT SQUARE and the Norfolk real estate market

Mowbray Arch sits in a tree-lined corner of Norfolk where older homes anchor quiet streets and neighbors know each other. The architecture runs to classic single-family designs from the 1980s and earlier—nothing cookie-cutter, everything with personality. You're walking distance to Ghent Square Playground and Botetourt Gardens, so daily life mixes urban convenience with neighborhood calm. Norfolk itself is a working waterfront city with naval heritage, cultural institutions, and a downtown that's always evolving. Getting around is straightforward: Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is two minutes away, and the broader city opens up from here. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Norfolk will find this address offers both proximity and peace.
