Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Homes from the 1940s in Cavalier Manor tend to have solid bones and generous lot sizes that newer construction rarely matches. At 0.22 acres, 912 Tazewell Street gives you real outdoor space in a walkable, grid-street neighborhood. Four bedrooms and two and a half baths spread across 1,607 square feet. That layout works hard without wasting space. It is the kind of address that holds its character across decades.

CAVALIER MANOR and the Portsmouth real estate market

Cavalier Manor is one of Portsmouth's most recognizable residential neighborhoods. The streets run in a clean grid, lined with mid-century homes on generous lots. Most houses here date from the 1940s through the 1960s, giving the area a consistent, unhurried feel. Mature trees shade the sidewalks, and neighbors tend to stay for years. Tazewell Street sits comfortably inside that fabric. Anyone comparing homes for sale in 23701 will notice that Cavalier Manor offers lot sizes and architectural character that are hard to find at this price point in Hampton Roads. Portsmouth itself is a working waterfront city with deep roots and a fast-growing downtown. The Elizabeth River connects it to Norfolk and the broader region. Getting around is straightforward — Interstate 264 and Military Highway are both close. Downtown Portsmouth and the Olde Towne historic district are less than ten minutes north.

What's nearby

Daily errands are easy from 912 Tazewell Street. Royal Farms is 0.4 miles away for quick grocery and fuel stops. Sistas Soul Cafe, Big Backs Eatery, and Eddys Express Restaurant are all within 0.4 miles for a fast lunch or a sit-down dinner close to home. Starbucks and Crossings Cafe are 0.6 miles out when you need a morning coffee. MARABLE'S FITNESS is under a mile away for workouts. Woodland Park is about a mile from the front door, offering open green space for outdoor time.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about eight minutes from 912 Tazewell Street, and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth is nine minutes away. That kind of proximity makes a real difference on early-morning shifts and long duty days. VA loan financing is common in Cavalier Manor, and the neighborhood's stable, long-held housing stock means transactions here tend to move cleanly. Portsmouth homes for sale at this commute distance to two major installations are worth a close look.

Room to grow

Four bedrooms give everyone a dedicated space, and the half bath adds real convenience on a busy morning. The 0.22-acre lot is large enough for a garden, a playset, or simply room to spread out. Inside, 1,607 square feet keeps the layout connected without feeling cramped. A full two bathrooms plus the half bath means the morning routine runs smoothly. Anyone comparing homes for sale zoned for Manor High School and homes for sale zoned for Hodges Manor Elementary School will find 912 Tazewell Street worth a serious look.
