River Forest Shores pairs a tucked-away residential feel with quick connections to the best of Norfolk. Tree-lined blocks and mid-century homes sit close to water views around Lake Whitehurst, while everyday errands and commuting are straightforward with nearby interstates and access to Hampton Roads Transit’s system, including light rail by Hampton Roads Transit. Frequent flyers love being within minutes of Norfolk International Airport, and downtime often leads to the lush trails and seasonal events at Norfolk Botanical Garden.
Weekend plans are easy: sandy shoreline and sunset breezes await at Ocean View Beach Park, and dining or entertainment across city lines is just a short hop to Virginia Beach. Closer to home, the planned streets and waterfront pocket parks of East Beach add to the area’s coastal appeal, and neighborhood roads make biking and dog walking part of the daily rhythm.
Families are served by Norfolk Public Schools, with attendance zones that can be confirmed through the division, and higher education is close at hand thanks to Old Dominion University and Virginia Wesleyan University. Healthcare access is strong, too, with comprehensive services at Sentara Leigh Hospital just a short drive away.
