Why this home stands out

Four bedrooms and two and a half baths give this 1971-built home real breathing room at 2,013 square feet. The half-bath on the main level is a practical detail that makes daily life easier. Two major installations — Norfolk Naval Shipyard and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth — are each about 11 minutes out. Groceries, dining, and green space are all within a half-mile. That combination of space, access, and convenience is hard to beat in Portsmouth.

GREEN LAKES and the Portsmouth real estate market

Arnold Palmer Drive sits in a quiet, established pocket of southwestern Portsmouth. The streets here are lined with mid-century homes built from the late 1960s through the 1970s. Lots tend to be generously sized, and mature trees give the area a settled, shaded feel. It is the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23701 with genuine neighborhood character rather than cookie-cutter sameness. Portsmouth itself is one of the original cities of Hampton Roads. It sits along the Elizabeth River, directly across from Norfolk. Getting around is straightforward — Interstate 264 and Route 58 connect you to the broader region quickly. Downtown Portsmouth has a walkable waterfront with restaurants, a children's museum, and ferry access to Norfolk. The city blends historic roots with everyday practicality, and 816 Arnold Palmer Drive is well-positioned to enjoy both.

What's nearby

Daily errands are easy from this address. Food Lion is just 0.6 miles away for grocery runs. Just Say PLS Cafe is a short 0.1-mile walk when you want a quick bite close to home. Images Restaurant and Entertainment is 0.2 miles out for a sit-down meal or a night out. A 7-Eleven is 0.4 miles away for coffee and convenience items. Greenlawn Memorial Gardens is right at 0.1 miles — a peaceful green space within easy walking distance. Spirit Enhancers All Stars gym is 0.9 miles away for fitness. Portsmouth homes for sale rarely come with this many options this close.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about 11 minutes from 816 Arnold Palmer Drive. Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is the same distance in the other direction. VA loan financing is widely used in this part of Portsmouth, and the home's four bedrooms and established condition make the path from offer to closing straightforward. Check current BAH rates for the E-5 through O-3 pay bands — this zip code tends to align well.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms give everyone their own space. The half-bath on the main level means no one is running upstairs during the day. At 2,013 square feet, there is room for a home office, a guest room, or dedicated storage. The lot sits in an established neighborhood with mature trees and sidewalks. Anyone comparing homes for sale zoned for Manor High School and homes for sale zoned for Hodges Manor Elementary School will want to put this address on the list.
