Why this home stands out
A dual-address multi-family footprint this close to the water and two major military installations is genuinely rare. At 4,400 square feet built in 1961, this Ocean View property offers substantial square footage on a street where beach access, a walkable restaurant strip, and a craft brewery are all within a few blocks — a combination that's hard to replicate anywhere else in Norfolk.
OCEAN VIEW and the Norfolk real estate market
Ocean View is one of Norfolk's most distinctive coastal communities, stretching along the southern shore of the Chesapeake Bay with a laid-back, neighborhood-first personality that sets it apart from the rest of the city. For anyone browsing homes for sale in norfolk va, Ocean View tends to stand out quickly — it pairs genuine waterfront proximity with a grounded, residential feel that newer developments rarely achieve. The area has seen steady reinvestment over the past two decades, with the East Beach section in particular drawing attention for its walkable village atmosphere, local businesses, and direct bay access. Streets here are lined with a mix of mid-century homes, updated cottages, and the occasional larger multi-family structure, all within easy reach of the Chesapeake Bay shoreline. Norfolk as a whole offers strong infrastructure, a diverse economy anchored by the military and healthcare sectors, and a downtown arts and dining scene about 20 minutes south. Ocean View gives you the quieter, coastal side of that equation.
What's nearby
Daily life at 20th Bay Street is remarkably convenient. Sandfiddler Cafe, AJ Gator's Sports Bar & Grill, and Mahalo Poke House are all within a block, making walkable dinners a regular option. COVA Brewing Company is 0.2 miles away for a craft beer or a casual meetup. Groceries are covered by Riffle Farms Market & Co-op at 0.2 miles, Food Lion at 0.8 miles, and Dollar General at 0.6 miles. Fitness options are plentiful — Fit Body Boot Camp, Xtras Fitness + Wellness, and Project SixKiller Performance are all within a third of a mile. East Beach Fountain Square and Park, a Community Garden, and 17th Bay Beach Access round out the outdoor options nearby.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Four minutes to JEB Little Creek-Fort Story and twelve minutes to Naval Station Norfolk — it's difficult to find a multi-family property in Ocean View with this kind of dual-base access. Whether you're using a VA loan to purchase or simply prioritizing a short commute, 9544–9546 20th Bay Street puts you in an enviable position relative to BAH rates and base proximity.
For buyers drawn to character
There's something genuinely appealing about a 1961-built multi-family structure in a neighborhood that has been quietly evolving for decades. Ocean View has history, texture, and a beach-town personality that newer suburbs simply don't replicate. If you want a property with a sense of place — walkable, coastal, rooted — this address delivers that in a way that's hard to manufacture.
