About This Home
Located in Norfolk's historic Chesterfield Heights, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath bungalow spans 1,056 square feet and offers a bold opportunity for those with vision. Though the interior now requires a complete renovation - including all new flooring, full paint, and kitchen structural repairs due to cabinet separation and floor sloping - its potential is undeniable. This property will be sold AS-IS as part of a professionally negotiated short sale, with no repairs by the seller. Minutes from downtown Norfolk, the waterfront, Norfolk State University, Sentara, and hotspots like The Main, Commune, and Selden Market, this home invites transformation. Restore its character, reimagine its layout, and revive its place in this vibrant community. Whether you're a savvy investor or a hands-on homeowner, this is your canvas. Hurry to schedule a private viewing now before someone else buys YOUR HOME!
