9535 Bay Front Dr #201, Norfolk, VA 23518

Why this home stands out

What sets this address apart is the combination of waterfront-adjacent living and near-instant base access that's genuinely hard to find in Norfolk. Bay Point condos sit right along the bay, meaning you get water views, walkable dining, and a laid-back coastal rhythm — all without the upkeep of a single-family home. For a one-bedroom unit, 900 square feet feels well-proportioned, and the 1991 build means solid construction without the quirks of an older property.

BAY POINT and the Norfolk real estate market

Bay Point is one of Norfolk's quieter coastal pockets, tucked along the bay in the East Ocean View corridor. The neighborhood has a genuinely unhurried feel — wide water views, a mix of condos and single-family homes, and a community that tends to know its neighbors. It's the kind of place where weekend mornings start with a walk to the water and evenings wind down at an open-air tiki bar a few blocks away. If you're exploring norfolk real estate and waterfront proximity is a priority, Bay Point checks that box without the premium price tag of some of the city's more prominent waterfront districts. Norfolk as a whole gives you a dense network of military installations, a growing restaurant and arts scene downtown, and easy highway access to the rest of Hampton Roads — but out here in Bay Point, the pace stays relaxed. The neighborhood draws a mix of military households, young professionals, and long-term residents who simply love being close to the water.
