Why this home stands out
Built in 2014, this home skips the quirks of older Norfolk housing stock and delivers a modern floor plan with four bedrooms, two full baths, and a convenient half-bath on the main level. At 2,100 square feet, there's genuine room to spread out — whether that means a dedicated home office, a proper guest room, or space for a growing household. The relatively recent construction year also means mechanical systems, rooflines, and finishes are a generation newer than much of what surrounds it.
CHESAPEAKE MANOR and the Norfolk real estate market
Gregory Drive sits within Norfolk, Virginia — a city shaped by deep naval heritage, a genuinely diverse food and arts scene, and neighborhoods that range from waterfront enclaves to tight-knit inland communities. This corner of Norfolk is practical in the best sense: close to major corridors without the noise, and surrounded by the kind of everyday infrastructure that makes daily life feel easy. The street itself carries a quiet, residential character — the sort of block where neighbors recognize each other. Norfolk as a whole punches above its weight for a mid-sized city, with a revitalized downtown, a thriving craft-beer corridor, and direct access to the broader Hampton Roads metro. For anyone tied to the military community, the city's relationship with the armed forces runs deep, and the infrastructure built around that — from commissaries to VA loan-friendly lenders — reflects it. This is a city that works hard and plays well.

For different buyers
For military families relocating
Nine minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and nine minutes to JEB Little Creek-Fort Story — 6936 Gregory Drive is about as well-positioned as a Norfolk address gets for dual-base households. Four bedrooms handle PCS arrivals, visiting family, and the inevitable home-office need. A VA loan can make ownership here straightforward, and the 2014 construction means fewer surprise maintenance calls during a busy deployment cycle.
For families upgrading
Four bedrooms and 2,100 square feet give a growing family real breathing room — enough for kids to have their own space while adults keep a dedicated room for work or guests. The 2014 build year means you're inheriting modern systems rather than aging ones, and the half-bath on the main level is the kind of practical detail that only makes sense once you've lived without it. Nearby playgrounds at Five Points and Oakmont North are a genuine bonus.
