Northeast Norfolk

Get the best of both worlds in this area, offering new housing developments along with established historical homes. Just north of Downtown is where some of the first homes in the area were built. Some of these older homes have managed to maintain the amenities that are characteristic of the era it was built such as Victorian style designs with crown molding, herringbone-patterned hardwood floors, wrap around porches, and one-of-a-kind architecture, which provide a sense of old-world comfort. Established homes can offer unique character and individual charm, with mature towering trees, and cozy curb appeal. If a newly built home and modern floor plans are your preference, there’s a lot of good that comes with living in a new housing development. It’s neat getting to see the area grow with land developing around you, turning what was once level plots into homes with families and pets. There’s so much potential in new developments, and when you get in early, you get to see all of it firsthand. With opportunities for building customizations, energy efficient features, and move-in ready conveniences, this area may be just the place for you. Enjoy area entertainment such as playing a round at the Norfolk Country Club Golf Course, watch a movie at the newly renovated Norfolk 7 Theatre, view art displays at the Norfolk Arts Center, or learn about Johnny Carson’s childhood in Norfolk at the Elkhorn Valley Museum. Families can enjoy many area parks such as the all accessible Embrace Park that includes a splash pad in the summer, or see the new additions at Johnson’s Park. Families can also enjoy bowling and indoor putt putt at King’s Lanes, or check out a good book at the Norfolk Public Library.
