Why this home stands out
Roland Park homes from this era tend to sit on generous lots with solid mid-century bones — real plaster walls, wide floor plans, and the kind of room proportions that newer construction rarely matches at this square footage. At nearly 2,000 square feet across four bedrooms, 505 Waukesha Avenue gives you space to grow without the sprawl of a newer development, all inside a walkable, established neighborhood with deep roots in Norfolk.
ROLAND PARK and the Norfolk real estate market
Roland Park is one of Norfolk's most quietly beloved neighborhoods — a grid of tree-lined streets, brick ranchers, and Cape Cods that has held its character for decades. The community sits in the eastern part of the city, bounded by familiar landmarks and a genuine sense of place that newer subdivisions are still working to earn. Neighbors here tend to stay, and that stability shows in the well-kept lots and the easy rhythm of daily life. If you're exploring norfolk va real estate and want a neighborhood that feels lived-in rather than built-to-sell, Roland Park deserves a close look. Norfolk itself is a city of real variety — waterfront districts, arts venues, military history, and a food scene that keeps expanding — and Roland Park puts you close to all of it without dropping you into the middle of the noise. Lakewood Park is just down the street, and the Roland Park Playground is equally close, making outdoor time genuinely convenient rather than a planned event.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are easy from 505 Waukesha Avenue. Angel Food Mart and Food Lion are both under a mile away, so grocery runs don't require a production. When you want to eat out, Eat By Sims is just 0.3 miles down the road — close enough to walk on a nice evening. Lindy's Famous Hotdogs, a Norfolk institution, is 0.6 miles away. Lakewood Park and Roland Park Playground are both within a third of a mile, giving you green space for morning walks, weekend afternoons, or letting kids burn off energy without loading everyone into the car.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and Naval Station Norfolk are each about eight minutes from 505 Waukesha Avenue — a rare double-base convenience that matters when schedules shift without warning. If you're working through a VA loan or calculating BAH, this address lands in a strong position: four bedrooms, close to two major installations, and in a stable neighborhood that holds its value across PCS cycles.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and nearly 2,000 square feet give a growing family real room to breathe — dedicated space for a home office, a guest room, or a playroom that doesn't double as the living room. Roland Park Playground and Lakewood Park are both a short walk away, and the neighborhood's established, low-turnover character means you're buying into a community, not just a house.
