3609 Forest Haven Ln

Why this home stands out

What sets Forest Haven Lane apart is its rare combination of quick base access and a walkable, well-supplied immediate corridor. NSA Northwest Annex is an 8-minute drive, Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is 12 minutes out, and a full grocery store sits less than a mile away. The 1962 construction gives the home solid mid-century bones — the kind of square footage and lot presence that newer townhome-style builds in this price tier rarely match.

LAUREL PARK and the Portsmouth real estate market

Portsmouth is one of Hampton Roads' seven cities, and the 23703 zip code sits in its northwestern corner — a quieter, more residential pocket that still connects easily to the broader metro.

If you've been searching homes for sale 23321 or the adjacent 23703 zip, you'll find this part of Portsmouth offers a lot of substance for the footprint.

Portsmouth sits across the Elizabeth River from Norfolk, with easy bridge-tunnel access to Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Suffolk — meaning you're genuinely central to the whole region without being in the middle of the noise.
