891 Melrose Ter, Newport News, VA 23608

Why this home stands out

At 2,222 square feet, 891 Melrose Terrace gives you real room to spread out — three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a layout that was designed when builders still believed in generous proportions. The 1989 construction era means solid bones without the quirks of older stock. Colony Pines Park is just over half a mile away, and two military installations sit within an 11-minute drive.
