Waterfront in Virginia. Circa 1870. $410,000

July 2, 2024

Pretty waterfront setting! Love the double porches! This house was built in 1870. It is located on .37 acre in Portsmouth, Virginia. The house features double porches, hardwood floors, nice staircase and a spacious kitchen. Not a fan of some of the updates they did. Feels like the house needs some character put back in. But I do love the setting! Four bedrooms, three bathrooms and 2,558 square feet. $410,000
