VaHome team overview

Our read on this home

At a glance

Meet 8035 Bison Ave — a 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch on a generous one-third-acre lot in Norfolk's BELAIRE neighborhood, built in 1954 and sitting just eight minutes from JEB Little Creek-Fort Story and nine from Naval Station Norfolk.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets this address apart is the combination of lot size and location. A 0.33-acre yard in an established Norfolk neighborhood is genuinely rare — you get real outdoor space without heading to the suburbs. The 1,625-square-foot footprint keeps things manageable, while the 1954 construction era means solid bones, mature landscaping, and a street that actually has character. Two bases within ten minutes seals the deal for a lot of buyers.

BELAIRE and the Norfolk real estate market

BELAIRE sits in the northeastern corner of Norfolk, a city that keeps showing up on lists of houses for sale norfolk va searches for good reason — it punches above its weight on lifestyle, access, and variety. This particular pocket of Norfolk has a settled, residential feel: wide lots, mature trees, and neighbors who have been around long enough to wave hello. You're close to the Chesapeake Bay shoreline without the premium waterfront price tag, and the broader East Side gives you quick access to both the interstate and the base corridors that define daily life for so much of Hampton Roads. Norfolk as a city brings serious amenities — a working waterfront, a thriving arts scene, and a food culture that keeps expanding — and BELAIRE puts you within a reasonable drive of all of it while keeping the neighborhood itself quiet and grounded.

What's nearby

Daily errands from 8035 Bison Ave are genuinely effortless. ALDI and a Walmart Neighborhood Market are both within 0.3 miles, and Watergate 3 International Food Market is right there too if you want something beyond the usual grocery run. Dinner options cluster nearby as well — Wings Wings Wings, El Azteca Norfolk, and Antonio's Pizza & Italian Ristorante are all within a few blocks. Apelu Island Cafe is your closest coffee stop at 0.2 miles. When it's time to work out, Anytime Fitness is half a mile away, with Muscle Beach East Gym and Fitness First Training Services also close by. Oakmont North Playgrounds and Tarrallton Park give kids and dogs somewhere to go.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is eight minutes away and Naval Station Norfolk is nine — this address sits squarely between two of Hampton Roads' biggest installations. If you're weighing how to use your VA loan or thinking through BAH, that dual-base access matters. A third bedroom, two full baths, and a large yard give a growing military family genuine room to spread out without a long commute to the gate.

For families upgrading

A one-third-acre lot in an established neighborhood is the kind of outdoor space that changes how a family actually lives — room for a garden, a playset, a fire pit, or all three. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout at 1,625 square feet is practical without being cramped, and the 1954-era construction means you're buying into a neighborhood with real history and mature trees rather than a freshly scraped subdivision.
