The lifestyle is the true highlight of this exceptional no-fee detached condo built in 2016. Perfectly positioned on a corner lot just 1.5 blocks from the beach, you'll love having two nearby farmers markets, neighborhood parks, and the Ocean View Recreation Center with its kayak launch just moments away. Inside, the open-concept design creates an inviting space for entertaining, while the thoughtfully designed kitchen impresses with an exceptional amount of custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, including a 2025 refrigerator and 2022 dishwasher. Custom tile work throughout the home adds a distinctive designer touch, while abundant storage makes everyday living as effortless as it is functional. Outdoor living is equally remarkable with three balconies, a spacious composite deck featuring a convenient lift for groceries and beach gear, a fully fenced yard with green space, an outdoor shower, and a ground-level half bath.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets this address apart is the combination of newer construction — 2016 means modern mechanical systems, open floor plans, and current building standards — with a location that puts you steps from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline. Four bedrooms and three and a half baths in 2,600 square feet gives everyone room to breathe, while JEB Little Creek-Fort Story sitting just five minutes away makes this one of the most commute-friendly addresses in all of Norfolk for active-duty households.

OCEAN VIEW EAST and the Norfolk real estate market

This address sits in the East Ocean View corridor of Norfolk, a waterfront stretch along the Chesapeake Bay that has quietly become one of the city's most sought-after pockets. The neighborhood has a relaxed, coastal energy — think weekend mornings at the beach access, evenings at a neighborhood bar, and a genuine sense of community that larger subdivisions rarely produce. East Ocean View draws a mix of long-time Norfolk residents and military families who discover quickly that the location is hard to beat. The broader city of Norfolk anchors the heart of Hampton Roads, offering world-class dining, the Chrysler Museum of Art, a thriving craft beverage scene, and some of the region's best waterfront parks. From 9601 17th Bay Street, you're connected to all of it while still living in a neighborhood that feels like its own small town on the bay.

What's nearby

Daily life is genuinely easy from this address. East Beach Bar & Grill and Mami's Empanadas are both within a tenth of a mile — dinner is practically a short walk. Chanello's Pizza is two blocks out when you want something low-key. Riffle Farms Market & Co-op covers fresh and local grocery needs at half a mile, and Dollar General handles quick runs at under a mile. COVA Brewing Company is your neighborhood craft beer spot at 0.5 miles. For fitness, Project SixKiller Performance is right at 0.1 miles, with Fit Body Boot Camp and Xtras Fitness + Wellness both at 0.5 miles. The Community Garden, 17th Bay Beach Access, and East Beach Fountain Square and Park are all within half a mile.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

JEB Little Creek-Fort Story is a five-minute drive, and Naval Station Norfolk is roughly twelve minutes out — that combination is rare and genuinely valuable for dual-military households or anyone who wants flexibility between assignments. The 2016 build means you're not inheriting deferred maintenance, and a VA loan pairs naturally with a property like this: newer construction, strong square footage, and a location that holds appeal across multiple duty-station cycles.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and three and a half baths across 2,600 square feet gives a growing family real room to spread out — dedicated space for a home office, a guest room, or a playroom without anyone feeling squeezed. Add beach access two blocks away and a walkable cluster of restaurants and fitness options, and this is the kind of address where kids grow up with stories to tell. The 2016 build means you're stepping into a home that's already dialed in, not a project.
