About this home
Exceptional real estate value opportunity, with more than $725,000 invested to seamlessly unite timeless architecture with modern living. Situated in the Hilton area just one block from the James River, this distinctive five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath Brandon property offers more than 2,900 square feet in the main residence with a basement laundry plus an approximately 800-square-foot private apartment complete with a custom kitchen, dining and full bath and laundry. More highlights include an air-conditioned three-car dream garage designed for the automotive enthusiast, and more than 800 square feet of covered outdoor living space ideal for year-round entertaining. With its classic brick exterior, stunning hardwood floors and comprehensive updates to all major systems, this lightly used residence represents a rare Peninsula opportunity—offering access to highly regarded schools and exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, an income-producing suite, private guest accommodations, a home business or independent living for adult children.
Brandon Heights, located between Downtown Newport News and the Huntington Park waterfront, is a residential and historic Newport News neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and porch-front architecture. Character concentrates around the Warwick Boulevard corridor near 25th Street, where small storefronts, corner services, and commuter traffic set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Housing leans toward early-to-mid-century single-family homes with compact lots and mature shade trees. The neighborhood’s geography keeps the James River shoreline and shipyard-era streetscapes close at hand. Nearby cultural anchors like the Downing-Gross Cultural Arts Center and the historic Newsome House Museum & Cultural Center add depth beyond the residential grid.
