Why this home stands out

Single-story layouts from this era are harder to find than you might expect. At 742 Keppel Drive, everything — bedrooms, baths, living space — sits on one floor. The 1969 build date means solid construction with room to personalize. The lot gives you outdoor space, and the surrounding street grid keeps daily errands genuinely close. For buyers who want simplicity of layout and quick base access, this address delivers both.

WINDSOR GREAT PARK and the Newport News real estate market

Keppel Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket on the west side of Newport News, in the 23608 zip code. The streets here are lined with single-family ranch and split-level homes, most built between the late 1960s and early 1980s. Lots are generously sized by city standards, and mature trees give the area a settled, established feel. Colony Pines Park is just down the road, adding a green anchor to the neighborhood. This part of the city is calm without being remote — you're close to shopping, food, and major roads. Newport News stretches from the James River to the York River, giving residents access to waterfront parks, a thriving arts scene, and a diverse restaurant culture. Jefferson Avenue and Warwick Boulevard are the main commercial corridors, both reachable in minutes from Keppel Drive.
