Why this home stands out
A full acre inside city limits is genuinely rare, and 513 Water Lilly Road delivers exactly that — room to breathe, space to expand, and a backyard that can handle whatever you have in mind. At 2,262 square feet with four bedrooms and a half-bath off the main living area, the floor plan gives every household member their own corner without the house feeling oversized or cold.
NEW PORT and the Portsmouth real estate market
NEW PORT is one of Portsmouth's quieter residential pockets — the kind of neighborhood where lots run generous and the pace slows down the moment you turn off the main road. Homes here tend to sit on larger parcels than you'll find closer to the waterfront districts, which is a big part of the appeal for buyers who want elbow room without leaving the city. Portsmouth itself carries a lot of history — it's home to the oldest naval shipyard in the country — and that heritage gives the city a grounded, working-town character that newer suburbs simply can't replicate. You're still close to the action: downtown Portsmouth's riverfront, the arts district, and quick access to Norfolk via the tunnel or the ferry are all within reach. NEW PORT sits in the southern part of the city in the 23701 zip code, putting you squarely between the shipyard to the north and the more rural stretches of western Portsmouth to the south.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are easy from Water Lilly Road. Royal Farms and Amoco are both within 0.4 miles for quick grocery and convenience runs, and Farm Fresh International is just 0.7 miles out for a fuller shop. When you'd rather let someone else cook, Prince Fried Chicken, Lost And Found Eatery, and Eddy's Express Restaurant are all within a third of a mile. Crossings Cafe and Starbucks are both 0.5 miles away for your morning routine. For outdoor time, Woodland Park is 0.4 miles down the road, GreenwoodSniffSpot is a short 0.7-mile trip for dog owners, and Maplewood Park rounds out the options at about a mile.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Norfolk Naval Shipyard is seven minutes away, and USCG Base Portsmouth is eight — it's hard to find a location that covers both assignments this cleanly. The full acre gives families space to set up, spread out, and actually enjoy a yard between deployments. A VA loan is a natural fit here, and the four-bedroom layout handles growing households without a squeeze.
For families upgrading
If you've outgrown your current place, 2,262 square feet on a full acre is a meaningful step up. Four bedrooms means the guest room doesn't have to double as a home office, and the half-bath keeps morning routines from turning into a traffic jam. The lot size alone opens up options — garden, play space, workshop — that most in-city properties simply can't offer.
