962 Maltby Ave, Norfolk, VA 23504

Why this home stands out

What sets 962 Maltby Ave apart is the rare combination of genuine early-twentieth-century architecture and an almost unbeatable dual-base commute. Homes built in 1924 carry details you simply can't replicate — thick plaster walls, proportioned rooms, and the kind of street presence that newer construction rarely achieves. Add a half-bath on the main level, and you get a livable floor plan wrapped in real history.

BARRAUD PARK and the Norfolk real estate market

Maltby Ave sits in a walkable, grid-street pocket of Norfolk where early-twentieth-century residential blocks give way quickly to local restaurants, green space, and everyday conveniences. The area has the feel of an established city neighborhood — sidewalks, mature trees, and neighbors who actually know each other. Norfolk itself is one of Hampton Roads' most layered cities: a working waterfront, a thriving arts scene anchored by the Chrysler Museum, and a military presence that keeps the local economy steady. The 23504 zip code puts you close to downtown Norfolk without the density of the urban core, and families comparing homes for sale in 23504 often appreciate how quickly the neighborhood connects to both I-264 and the Downtown Tunnel. It's the kind of address that rewards people who want city convenience with a residential feel.
