VaHome team overview

Our read on this home

At a glance

880 W Ocean View Ave is a 5,719-square-foot, four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home built in 2007 in Norfolk's Willoughby Beach neighborhood — sitting less than half a mile from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline and four minutes from Naval Station Norfolk.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Scale and location rarely line up this cleanly. At nearly 5,800 square feet on a 0.192-acre lot, this 2007-built home delivers the kind of room count — four bedrooms, four full baths, one half bath — that growing households and remote workers both appreciate. Add a four-minute drive to Naval Station Norfolk and direct proximity to multiple bay beach access points, and you have a combination that's genuinely hard to replicate in this zip code.

WILLOUGHBY BEACH and the Norfolk real estate market

Willoughby Beach sits at the northern tip of Norfolk where the city meets the Chesapeake Bay, and it carries a distinct personality — part waterfront retreat, part tight-knit residential enclave. Streets here run close to the water, beach access points are measured in blocks rather than miles, and the pace of daily life feels noticeably different from the busier corridors of the city. For anyone weighing military housing Norfolk options, this neighborhood checks boxes that most others can't: you're practically on the bay, yet still inside city limits with full urban infrastructure around you. Norfolk as a whole is one of the most water-defined cities on the East Coast, and Willoughby Beach is where that identity is most literal. The neighborhood draws a mix of longtime locals, military families on orders, and buyers who simply want proximity to open water without leaving the city behind.

What's nearby

Daily errands and leisure are both close. Swell Charcoal Grill and Raw Bar is half a mile away for a solid dinner out, and Ocean View Fishing Pier Restaurant is under a mile if you want a meal with a view of the bay. A 7-Eleven is right at 0.5 miles for quick coffee and convenience runs. When you want sand and water, 12th View Beach Access is 0.6 miles out, 13th View Street Beach Access is 0.8 miles, and Local Beach rounds things out at a mile. You're genuinely walking or biking distance from the shoreline on most of these.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Four minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and five minutes to MARFORCOM Norfolk makes 880 W Ocean View Ave one of the most commute-efficient addresses in the area for active-duty households. With over 5,700 square feet, there's real room for a family to spread out — no squeezing into a floor plan that doesn't fit. BAH rates in this market can go a long way here, and a VA loan makes ownership even more accessible.

For families upgrading

If your current home has you bumping into walls, 5,719 square feet across four bedrooms and four and a half baths is a genuine reset. Built in 2007, the layout was designed with modern family living in mind — not retrofitted from something older. Toss in beach access under a mile away, and weekend life gets a lot more interesting for everyone in the household.
