Why this home stands out

This 1940s home brings character and square footage together. Five bedrooms mean genuine flexibility—guest rooms, a home office, hobby space, or however you need to use them. The layout spans nearly 2,900 square feet across a solid footprint. Riverfront parks sit just a short walk away, and daily errands land within half a mile. It's the kind of home that anchors homes for sale in 23601.

BRANDON HEIGHTS and the Newport News real estate market

Shirley Road sits in a neighborhood with tree-lined streets and homes built across several decades. The block has a settled, lived-in feel—not brand-new, but well-established and walkable. You're minutes from Hilton Community Garden and two riverside parks: Hilton Pier/Ravine and Riverfront Park, both within a few blocks. Newport News itself is a waterfront city with deep military and industrial roots. Joint Base Langley-Eustis lies about 14 minutes away by car, and NSA Hampton Roads is roughly 19 minutes out. The city center, shipyards, and downtown dining and shopping districts are all easy drives. Anyone comparing Newport News homes for sale will find this location strikes a balance between neighborhood quiet and urban access.

What's nearby

Your corner of Newport News puts groceries within a half mile: Sacred Self and Food Lion are both close by, plus Mi Lindo Puebla Tienda & Restaurante Mexicano for specialty items. Dining is a short walk—Saffron, Circa 1918 Kitchen and Bar, and Indulge Bakery & Bistro all sit within half a mile. Coffee and fitness options cluster nearby too: Health Trail Natural Foods, F.I.T. Vision, Better Health Fitness LLC, and InZane Fitness are all under a mile away. Riverfront Park and Hilton Pier/Ravine are steps away for morning walks or weekend time outdoors.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

About 14 minutes to Joint Base Langley-Eustis and 19 minutes to NSA Hampton Roads. Five bedrooms offer flexibility for a multi-person household. VA loan financing is common in this area, and the home's established condition means no surprises. You could move in without major updates.

Room to grow

Five bedrooms give you room to spread out—genuine guest space, a dedicated home office, or a hobby room. Three full baths mean mornings run smoother. Nearly 2,900 square feet lets you grow without cramping. A fenced yard and proximity to Riverfront Park add outdoor living options.
