Why this home stands out
What sets 708 B St apart is its rare combination of age and scale — a 1924-square-foot footprint built in 1910 that has had more than a century to settle into a mature, established block. Add a two-minute drive to Norfolk Naval Shipyard and a three-minute hop to USCG Base Portsmouth, and you're looking at one of the closest civilian addresses to two active federal installations in the entire Hampton Roads region.
SOUTH NORFOLK and the Chesapeake real estate market
708 B St sits in a historic pocket of Chesapeake, Virginia, just across the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River from Portsmouth's shipyard district. The surrounding streets carry the character of early-twentieth-century working neighborhoods — compact lots, mature trees, and homes with real architectural bones. This part of Chesapeake developed alongside the naval and maritime industries that still define the region, so the community has a deep-rooted, unpretentious identity that newer subdivisions simply can't replicate. Neighbors tend to be long-timers who know each other by name. The block itself is flat and walkable, and everyday errands rarely require getting in the car. Johnson Park is just around the corner, and the broader street grid connects you quickly to both the waterfront and the commercial corridors of the surrounding area. For anyone who values proximity to work, a genuine sense of place, and a home with actual history, this corner of Chesapeake delivers all three.
What's nearby
Daily life is genuinely easy from 708 B St. In and Out Smoke Shop and Deli is 0.1 miles away for quick grab-and-go needs, and Let's Be Free and Shop 'N' Go cover additional grocery runs within half a mile. Hungry? The Dog House and Mak's Chinese Restaurant are both within two blocks, and McDonald's is right there when speed matters. Coffee is equally convenient — Dunkin' and Rich Port Coffee are each about 0.2 miles out. For fresh air, Johnson Park is a short walk at 0.2 miles, and Berkley Park and James W. McNeil Park round out the options at 0.6 miles.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Two-minute access to Norfolk Naval Shipyard and three minutes to USCG Base Portsmouth makes 708 B St one of the most commute-friendly addresses in Hampton Roads for active-duty families. A VA loan can make this century-old home even more attainable, and the four bedrooms give growing families real room to breathe without sacrificing that critical proximity to the gate.
For first-time buyers
If you're stepping into homeownership for the first time, 708 B St offers something hard to find: a four-bedroom home with over 1,600 square feet, a walkable block, and a location that keeps two military bases within minutes. The 1910 construction means genuine character — original proportions, solid bones — rather than the cookie-cutter layouts common in newer entry-level builds.
