Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms in 1,482 square feet is a rare configuration — this home squeezes in meaningful bedroom count that most comparably sized houses simply can't match. Add a four-minute drive to the gates of Naval Station Norfolk, a walkable stretch of local dining and green space, and a 1949 build that carries the solid construction hallmarks of that post-war era, and you have a genuinely distinctive address in Norfolk's northside.
WILLOUGHBY TERRACE and the Norfolk real estate market
Coleman Avenue sits in the northside of Norfolk, Virginia — a part of the city shaped by its proximity to the Chesapeake Bay shoreline and the deep military presence that defines this corner of Hampton Roads. The surrounding blocks carry the character of mid-century residential Norfolk: modest lots, mature trees, and neighbors who tend to stay. Ocean View's waterfront parks and public beach access are just minutes away, giving the area a laid-back coastal feel without the premium price tags of the beachfront strips. For anyone exploring city of norfolk real estate, this northside pocket offers genuine value — close to two major bases, connected to downtown Norfolk via the Granby Street corridor, and sitting inside a city that continues to invest in its waterfront and infrastructure. Norfolk is an independent city in Virginia, meaning it operates its own services and school system separate from surrounding counties. The zip code here is 23503, a northside designation that places you well within reach of everything the broader Norfolk market has to offer.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are genuinely easy from Coleman Avenue. Beach Bay Mart is half a mile out for quick grocery runs, and Harris Teeter is just 0.8 miles away when you need a full shop. Hungry after a long duty day? Maymar Poke and Grill, Shawarma & Gyro Grill, and Golden City are all within half a mile. Mudita Cafe & Bar is a short 0.8-mile trip for a proper coffee sit-down. For staying active, CrossFit Norfolk and Ov Fit are both 0.5 miles away. Ocean View Dog Park, Maple Park, and Ely Memorial Park are all within half a mile — great for kids, dogs, and weekend afternoons alike.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Four minutes to Naval Station Norfolk and five minutes to MARFORCOM Norfolk makes 9230 Coleman Avenue one of the most base-accessible addresses you'll find in this zip code. A VA loan can make this five-bedroom home even more attainable — and with two major installations this close, PCS transitions become significantly less stressful. Short commutes mean more time at home, which matters.
For first-time buyers
Five bedrooms at this square footage and price point is the kind of configuration that gives first-time buyers real flexibility — room for a home office, a guest room, or a growing family without needing to upsize immediately. The northside Norfolk location keeps you close to bases, beaches, and everyday conveniences, and the 1949 construction era typically means solid bones. It's a practical starting point with real upside.
