7 Sailfish ST is a four-bedroom, two-bath home in Portsmouth, Virginia, offering 1,807 square feet of living space built in 1995. With NSA Northwest Annex just five minutes away and NSA Hampton Roads a short twelve-minute drive, this address is hard to beat for military households.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 7 Sailfish ST apart is its rare combination of generous square footage for a four-bedroom home and an almost unmatched proximity to not one but two major installations. The 1995 build year puts it in a sweet spot — past the quirks of older construction, yet established enough to sit in a mature, settled neighborhood rather than a freshly cut subdivision still finding its identity.

LONG POINT and the Portsmouth real estate market

Portsmouth is one of Hampton Roads' most storied cities, and the northwest corner near the 23703 zip code carries a distinctly residential, low-key character that sets it apart from the busier corridors closer to downtown. Streets here tend to be quiet, lots are generous, and neighbors tend to stay put — the kind of place where you learn people's names. The area sits along the western edge of the city, giving you quick access to Interstate 664 and the broader Hampton Roads highway network without the noise and congestion that come with living right on a main artery. Grocery runs, pharmacies, and everyday errands are all within a short drive, and the city's parks and waterfront amenities are never far when you want a change of pace. For military families in particular, the 23703 zip code is one of Portsmouth's most practical addresses — positioned squarely between NSA Northwest Annex and NSA Hampton Roads, which means shorter commutes and more time at home.

What's nearby

Day-to-day life flows easily from 7 Sailfish ST. NSA Northwest Annex is roughly five minutes by car, and NSA Hampton Roads is about twelve — both well within the range most service members target when house-hunting in the region. Interstate 664 is accessible in just a few minutes, connecting you to Suffolk, Chesapeake, and the wider Hampton Roads metro. Shopping centers along Frederick Boulevard and Western Branch Road cover groceries, dining, and retail without a long drive. Prentis Park and the broader network of Portsmouth green spaces give you outdoor options close to home.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

With NSA Northwest Annex five minutes from the front door and NSA Hampton Roads twelve minutes out, 7 Sailfish ST is purpose-built for military life — even if that wasn't the original intention. A VA loan can make this four-bedroom home even more accessible, and the four bedrooms give you the flexibility to handle PCS moves, guests, or a home office without squeezing anyone.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and 1,807 square feet give a growing family genuine room to spread out — separate spaces for kids, a dedicated guest room, or a proper home office rather than a converted closet. The 1995 build year means the bones are solid, the layout reflects how people actually live, and you're not inheriting the deferred maintenance that older homes in the area sometimes carry.
