Why this home stands out
What sets 653 Ingleside Road apart is simple: 3.7 acres inside city limits is genuinely uncommon. Built in 1916, this 2,423-square-foot residential property carries the architectural bones of its era — think real craftsmanship, not cookie-cutter construction. Four bedrooms, three baths, and land that gives you breathing room most Norfolk addresses simply cannot offer.
INGLESIDE and the Norfolk real estate market
The INGLESIDE neighborhood sits in the eastern corridor of Norfolk, a part of the city that tends to fly under the radar compared to flashier waterfront districts — and that's exactly why residents here like it. Streets are established, lots run generous, and the pace feels a step removed from the bustle without actually being far from anything. When you're browsing houses for sale in Norfolk, Ingleside stands out for its mature tree canopy, its mix of early-twentieth-century and mid-century homes, and a genuine sense of community that newer subdivisions often struggle to replicate. Norfolk itself is a city of real texture — military heritage, arts venues, working waterfront, and a food scene that keeps growing. From Ingleside you can reach downtown Norfolk in under fifteen minutes, and the broader Hampton Roads metro is easily accessible via I-64.
What's nearby
Day-to-day life around 653 Ingleside Road is low-effort in the best way. Fat Boy Grill And Deli is just a mile away — a local spot worth knowing for a quick, satisfying meal without the chain-restaurant experience. Two parks land within a short walk: Chesterfield Heights Park and Ingleside Park are both roughly 0.8 miles out, giving you green space options for morning walks, weekend afternoons, or anywhere kids need to burn energy. The surrounding area also connects quickly to grocery corridors and pharmacy options along the Virginia Beach Boulevard and Tidewater Drive corridors.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
USCG Base Portsmouth is six minutes away, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is seven — making 653 Ingleside Road one of the more strategically located addresses in the city for active-duty households. Your VA loan benefit works here, and BAH rates for the Hampton Roads area are structured to make this price range accessible for many paygrades. Four bedrooms means room for a family that needs space, and 3.7 acres means room to spread out between deployments.
For buyers drawn to character
If you've been searching for a home with actual history, 1916 is about as far back as Norfolk residential construction goes for standing inventory. The bones of this era — proportioned rooms, substantial construction, details that were built to last — are what draw buyers who've grown tired of drywall-and-vinyl new builds. Pair that with 3.7 acres in an established neighborhood and you have something that genuinely cannot be replicated on today's lot sizes.
