Meet 8239 Redwood Circle — a four-bedroom, one-bath home in Norfolk's Forest Park neighborhood, sitting on a 0.17-acre lot just eight minutes from Naval Station Norfolk. Built in 1953, this 1,563-square-foot residence puts everyday conveniences, dining, and fitness options right around the corner.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 8239 Redwood Circle apart is the combination of a generously sized four-bedroom floor plan in a compact, walkable package — rare for a mid-century home at this square footage. The 0.17-acre lot gives you real outdoor space without overwhelming upkeep, and the dual-base proximity to both Naval Station Norfolk and JEB Little Creek-Fort Story makes this address a practical anchor for military households juggling assignments at either installation.

FOREST PARK and the Norfolk real estate market

Forest Park is a well-established residential pocket in the northeastern corner of Norfolk, Virginia — the kind of neighborhood where tree-lined streets and post-war architecture give the area a grounded, lived-in character. Streets here tend to be quiet and walkable, with a genuine mix of long-time residents and newer families who appreciate the easy access to the rest of the city. If you've been browsing homes for sale Norfolk-wide, Forest Park stands out for its no-frills authenticity and its central position between two major military installations. Norfolk itself is a city with serious momentum — a working waterfront, a growing arts and dining scene, and one of the most strategically located military communities on the East Coast. Forest Park sits close enough to enjoy all of that while still feeling like a neighborhood where people actually know their neighbors.

What's nearby

Daily errands are genuinely easy from Redwood Circle. ALDI, Dollar General, and Mi Calavera Latin Store & Butcher Shop are all within half a mile, so grocery runs rarely require much planning. When you want a meal out, ROLOP is just 0.3 miles away, and La Isla del Encanto Food Truck and China King are both within 0.4 miles — solid variety for a weeknight. Apelu Island Cafe, McDonald's, and a 7-Eleven cover your coffee and quick-stop needs within 0.6 miles. Fitness options are equally accessible: Muscle Beach East Gym is 0.6 miles out, Anytime Fitness is at 0.8 miles, and Somnium CrossFit rounds things out at under a mile. Oakmont North Playgrounds is 0.8 miles away for outdoor time.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Eight minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and nine minutes to JEB Little Creek-Fort Story — 8239 Redwood Circle is about as well-positioned as it gets for dual-military households or anyone who needs flexibility between two major commands. A VA loan can make ownership here straightforward, and BAH rates in the Norfolk area have historically aligned well with this price tier and property size.

For first-time buyers

If you're looking at houses for sale Norfolk-wide and feeling overwhelmed by the options, Forest Park offers something concrete: a four-bedroom home with real square footage, a manageable lot, and a neighborhood that's been stable for decades.
