Why this home stands out
Built in 2014, this home brings newer construction to one of Norfolk's most sought-after coastal neighborhoods. You get the lifestyle — beach access two blocks away, local restaurants within walking distance, and a tight-knit community feel — without the maintenance headaches that come with older homes. Four bedrooms and nearly 2,500 square feet means there's space for everyone, whether that's a home office, a guest room, or both.
OCEAN VIEW EAST and the Norfolk real estate market
East Ocean View is the kind of neighborhood that earns loyalty. Tucked along the Chesapeake Bay shoreline in Norfolk's northernmost corner, it draws people in with wide streets, a genuine beach-town atmosphere, and a community that actually knows its neighbors. The area has seen thoughtful reinvestment over the past decade — newer construction sits alongside renovated mid-century homes, and local businesses have followed. If you've been searching norfolk virginia homes for sale with walkability and waterfront proximity in mind, East Ocean View consistently rises to the top of that list. Norfolk itself is a city of real substance: a working waterfront, a vibrant arts scene, diverse dining, and one of the largest naval complexes in the world. Living here means you're close to everything Hampton Roads has to offer while still coming home to a neighborhood that feels like a retreat.
