Meet 774 Selkirk Drive, a four-bedroom, two-bath home in Newport News built in 1968. You're about six minutes from Joint Base Langley-Eustis and surrounded by dining and parks. This is the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23602.
A 1,568-square-foot residential home with solid bones and room to grow. Four bedrooms give you flexibility—a master suite, guest rooms, or a home office. The layout flows naturally, and the lot offers space for outdoor living. You'll appreciate the proximity to both military installations and everyday conveniences without feeling cramped.
DENBIGH TERRACE and the Newport News real estate market
Selkirk Drive sits in a residential pocket of Newport News where tree-lined streets and modest single-family homes create a quiet, walkable feel. The neighborhood has that established character—homes dating back decades, neighbors who know each other, and a genuine sense of community. Newport News itself is a working waterfront city with deep military and maritime roots. Getting around is straightforward: major roads connect you to shopping, dining, and employment centers within minutes. If you're comparing homes for sale in Newport News, note that this address sits close to both Joint Base Langley-Eustis and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown, making it convenient for anyone with a base commute. The city offers a mix of urban amenities and suburban breathing room.

For different buyers
Base commute and VA loan notes

Room to grow
Four bedrooms let you set up a master suite, guest rooms, and a dedicated office or playroom. The 1,568-square-foot layout spreads across the lot without wasting space.
