Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

978 Holbrook Drive is a 4-bedroom, 2.1-bath single-family home in Newport News, Virginia, built in 2000 and offering 2,374 square feet of living space. Fort Eustis is just 11 minutes away, and everyday conveniences are practically at the end of the driveway.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 978 Holbrook Drive apart is the combination of generous square footage and an almost unbeatable daily-errand radius. A Walmart Supercenter, multiple sit-down restaurants, fitness studios, and coffee shops all fall within half a mile. For military households weighing Newport News homes for sale, the dual-base access to both Fort Eustis and Langley AFB is a rare logistical advantage that few addresses in this zip code can match.

KILN CREEK and the Newport News real estate market

Holbrook Drive sits in the 23602 zip code on Newport News's north side — a part of the city that grew steadily through the 1990s and early 2000s into a well-established, family-friendly corridor. Streets here are quiet and residential while Patrick Henry Mall and the retail strip along Jefferson Avenue keep everything from groceries to date-night dining within a short drive or walk. Newport News itself spans from the James River waterfront all the way north to York County, giving residents access to a broad range of parks, waterways, and cultural institutions. The city's economy is anchored by the shipyard, the military, and a growing healthcare and tech sector, which together create a stable, diverse community. Families comparing homes for sale in Newport News often settle on this north-end corridor precisely because it threads the needle between suburban calm and urban convenience.

What's nearby

Daily life is genuinely easy from 978 Holbrook Drive. Kiln Mart is 0.1 miles away for quick stops, and a Walmart Supercenter is just 0.4 miles out when you need a full cart. Dinner options are plentiful — Carrabba's Italian Grill and Charley's Cheesesteaks are both under half a mile, with Red Robin rounding out the choices at 0.5 miles. Grab coffee at Dunkin', Sam's Club Cafe, or the Coffee Beanery inside Patrick Henry Mall, all within 0.6 miles. Body Shock Studios and Bleevable Prana Yoga & Wellness handle fitness needs nearby, and Chatham Park offers green space less than a mile away.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Joint Base Langley-Eustis — Fort Eustis side — is an 11-minute drive from the front door, and Langley AFB is reachable in about 16 minutes. That kind of dual-installation access is a genuine asset for households where orders can shift between components. A VA loan can make this four-bedroom footprint even more attainable, and the north-end location keeps commutes predictable regardless of gate traffic.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and 2,374 square feet give a growing household real room to breathe — space for a dedicated home office, a guest room, or a playroom without anyone feeling squeezed. Families comparing homes for sale zoned for Menchville High School and homes for sale zoned for Kiln Creek Elementary School will find 978 Holbrook Drive lands squarely in that attendance zone, making the school-district decision straightforward.
