Cromwell Farms-Ellsworth, located between Little Creek Road and I-64, is a residential and suburban Norfolk neighborhood with leafy cul-de-sacs and a low-rise, mid-century feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Little Creek Rd corridor near the I-64 ramps, where auto shops, small eateries, and everyday services set a practical, on-the-go rhythm. Housing reads as brick ranches and split-levels with deep setbacks, mature trees, and wide driveways. Nearby green space and water views shape a weekend cadence of trails and shoreline breezes. Cultural gravity comes from the Hermitage Museum & Gardens, the Chrysler Museum of Art, and The NorVa for nights out beyond the immediate blocks.

The purpose of the Single Family 6 SF-6 district is to provide lands that accommodate primarily lowdensity, single family detached dwellings on relatively small lots. The district also accommodates day cares, limited group living, government offices, parks and recreation centers, and minor utility facilities. District regulations discourage development that substantially interferes with the quiet residential nature of the district. It is generally intended to be located in the suburban character district.
