Salters Creek Home for Rent

Located along the James River in southern Newport News, Salters Creek — also known as Wilson — is a waterfront community close to major interstates. “It’s an established neighborhood, but it’s growing. They’re building new homes, and everyone is excited about that,” says Anita L. Cox, broker and owner of NextHome Coastal Luxury Realty who’s sold homes in the area for over 17 years. “A lot of people really enjoy its proximity to the James River. We’re a coastal town, and how much closer can you be to the waterfront?” Chesapeake Avenue runs along the river, and homes here have waterfront views. Interstates 64 and 664 are nearby, providing convenient access to the rest of the Hampton Roads area. The neighborhood’s 20th-century American Foursquare, National and minimal traditional homes sit near the James River, and the homes on Chesapeake Avenue have unobstructed views of the water. The sidewalk-lined streets form a grid, where the homes sit close together and have grassy lawns large enough for an ornamental tree. Many houses have a paved single-car driveway, and the wide streets allow room for street parking. Prices typically range from around $100,000 to $300,000. Early
