819 Westover Ave, Norfolk, VA 23507

Why this home stands out

Homes this size and this old rarely come with four full baths. The 1914 construction gives 819 Westover Ave the kind of bones — wide staircases, thick walls, generous room proportions — that newer builds simply don't replicate. At 4,100 square feet, there is genuine room to spread out across five bedrooms. The lot sits in a pocket of Ghent where the street itself feels like part of the home's appeal.

GHENT and the Norfolk real estate market

Ghent is one of Norfolk's most beloved urban neighborhoods. The streets here are lined with early-twentieth-century homes, brick sidewalks, and mature trees that close in overhead. It has the density of a city block and the calm of a residential street at the same time. Colley Avenue runs nearby and anchors a stretch of local restaurants, boutiques, and coffee shops that give the neighborhood its daily rhythm. The Hague — a tidal inlet just steps away — adds a waterfront edge that most urban neighborhoods can't claim. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23507 will notice that this zip code sits at the center of some of Norfolk's most walkable blocks. Norfolk itself is a mid-size coastal city with a working waterfront, a strong arts scene, and fast access to the rest of Hampton Roads via I-264 and the Downtown Tunnel. Getting around is straightforward whether you drive, bike, or walk.
