812 Stockley Gdns #6, Norfolk, VA 23507

Why this home stands out

What makes 812 Stockley Gardens #6 genuinely rare is the combination of century-old character — think original-era bones in a 1,592-square-foot layout — and a location that almost no other Norfolk homes for sale can match: a wine bar on the ground floor, two coffee shops within a quarter mile, and one of Hampton Roads' most storied historic streetscapes right outside. Three bedrooms and two baths give you real living space without sacrificing the walkable urban lifestyle.

GHENT and the Norfolk real estate market

Stockley Gardens sits at the heart of Norfolk's Ghent neighborhood, a tree-lined enclave of early-twentieth-century architecture that has anchored the city's arts and dining culture for decades. The street itself is named for the formal garden park that runs along its center median — a rare green spine that gives the block a European boulevard quality you won't find anywhere else in the region. Ghent's mix of preserved rowhouses, independent restaurants, and locally owned shops makes it one of the most sought-after addresses among homes for sale in Norfolk, drawing everyone from young professionals to long-tenured Norfolkians who simply never want to leave. The broader 23507 zip code covers the western edge of Norfolk where the city meets the water at The Hague inlet, and the walkability here is exceptional by any Hampton Roads standard. Norfolk itself is a city of genuine neighborhoods, and Ghent is the one that consistently tops the list.
