Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Built in 1949, this home carries mid-century character in a neighborhood where older, smaller properties dominate. The layout is efficient: two bedrooms and one bathroom in a footprint that keeps utility costs down. You're close enough to Naval Station Norfolk that a commute is quick, yet far enough to enjoy a residential feel away from base traffic. The surrounding blocks show real neighborhood roots, with corner stores and longtime local spots within walking distance.

CORONADO and the Norfolk real estate market

This address sits in a neighborhood of modest, well-established homes built mostly in the 1940s and 1950s. The streets are tree-lined and residential, with a mix of single-family homes and small multi-unit properties. You'll find a strong sense of community here—the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23513. Norfolk itself is Virginia's second-largest city, a major naval hub with a working waterfront, downtown arts district, and easy access to beaches. Getting around the city is straightforward via local streets and the Hampton Roads bridge-tunnel corridor. The neighborhood sits centrally enough that you can reach most of Norfolk within 15 minutes by car. If you are comparing Norfolk homes for sale, note that this zip code offers solid value and walkable convenience.

What's nearby

Angel Food Mart and K & T Food Mart are your closest groceries, both under a mile away. Lindy's Famous Hotdogs, R and C Chicken and Seafood, and T'San Japanese Restaurant are all within a few blocks, making weeknight dinner easy. A pair of 7-Elevens and McDonald's provide quick coffee stops. For fitness, Box-N-Go Boxing Gym, Somnium CrossFit, and Hyrox Norfolk are all under a mile. Roland Park Playground sits nearby for outdoor time, with Five Points Neighborhood Spot and Lakewood Park also within reach.

For different buyers

Base commute and VA loan notes

Naval Station Norfolk is about nine minutes away by car, and MARFORCOM Norfolk is ten minutes. This commute is short enough to leave base at day's end and still have evening time. VA loan financing is common in this price range and neighborhood, making the purchase process straightforward for eligible buyers.

For first-time buyers

The two-bedroom layout and 745-square-foot footprint keep monthly costs manageable while you build equity. This is the kind of property where first-time buyers often start—solid bones, walkable neighborhood, and a price that doesn't stretch your budget. You'll own the whole property outright, with no HOA fees.
