Why this home stands out
What sets 914 Philpotts Road apart is the combination of substantial square footage — 2,190 feet across four bedrooms — and a location that puts two major military installations within a nine-minute drive. Homes this size, at this proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and MARFORCOM Norfolk, are harder to find than most buyers expect. The 1950 build year also means solid construction with the kind of room proportions that newer builds often trade away.
CORONADO and the Norfolk real estate market
914 Philpotts Road sits in the eastern section of Norfolk, a city that has been reshaping its identity for years while holding onto the deep military roots and waterfront character that define Hampton Roads. This part of Norfolk has a grounded, residential feel — established streets, mature trees, and neighbors who have been around long enough to wave hello. The area draws a mix of longtime Norfolk residents and military families who quickly discover that nine minutes to base is a rare find in this market. Norfolk itself spans from the busy Granby Street corridor and the NEON arts district all the way out to the quiet edges near the water, and this address puts you well-positioned to access all of it. Grocery runs, quick bites, and fitness options are all within a mile. Weekend plans can go in any direction — waterfront parks, downtown dining, or simply staying close to home in a neighborhood that rewards it.
