Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

701 Maury Ave is a six-bedroom, four-bath-plus home in Norfolk, Virginia — a 4,710-square-foot piece of 1907 history sitting just minutes from Naval Medical Center Portsmouth. The block is walkable, the lot is generous, and the architecture is the real thing. Few Norfolk homes for sale can match this combination of scale and age.

Why this home stands out

Homes built in 1907 rarely survive with this much square footage intact. At 4,710 square feet, 701 Maury Ave gives you six bedrooms and four full baths plus two half baths — room that most century-old homes simply cannot offer. The bones here are the draw. Original-era architecture in this size is genuinely hard to find anywhere in the 23517 zip code, and that scarcity holds its value over time.

GHENT and the Norfolk real estate market

Maury Ave sits in one of Norfolk's most established urban neighborhoods, just west of the Ghent district. The streets here are lined with early-twentieth-century homes on mature lots. Brick sidewalks, tall trees, and front porches give the blocks a character that newer construction cannot replicate. Neighbors are close but not crowded, and the pace feels residential even though downtown Norfolk is only a short drive away. Norfolk itself is a mid-sized coastal city anchored by one of the largest naval installations in the world. The city has invested heavily in its arts scene, waterfront, and restaurant corridors. Getting around is straightforward — Interstate 264 and the Downtown Tunnel connect you east and west quickly. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23517 will notice how central this address is to everything the city offers. The Ghent commercial strip, the Chrysler Museum, and the Elizabeth River waterfront are all within a few miles.

What's nearby

Daily errands are genuinely easy from 701 Maury Ave. The Fresh Market is 0.2 miles away for groceries, and Dollar General is just 0.3 miles for quick runs. Vang Go Bistro, Yummy Wok, and The Taphouse Grill are all within a tenth of a mile for dinner. Town Center Cold Pressed in Ghent and Catnip Cat Cafe are both 0.2 miles for your morning coffee. Meyer Fitness Personal Training Studio and Flourish are each 0.1 miles away. Yellow Fever Park is 0.2 miles, and the Weyanoke Bird and Wildflower Sanctuary is just 0.4 miles for a quiet walk.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is about three minutes by car. USCG Base Portsmouth is four minutes. VA loan financing is widely used in this part of Norfolk, and the property's size means it can accommodate a large household without compromise. Buyers using BAH at mid-to-senior paygrades will find the scale here aligns well with what that allowance supports in this zip code.

For buyers drawn to character

A home built in 1907 tells a story that drywall and vinyl siding never can. At 701 Maury Ave, you get six bedrooms, original-era architecture, and 4,710 square feet of space that rewards careful restoration or confident preservation. If you are the kind of buyer who searches homes for sale in Norfolk specifically for character and age, this address belongs on your short list.
