The Space:

Beach Construction Notice:

The City of Norfolk will begin a sand replacement project on Toler Place and Willoughby Beach (from 11th View St to the terminal groin) in response to significant erosion from recent high tides. Work will take place Monday through Friday, from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, beginning in late May 2025 and continuing through late July 2025. You will have to use the beach from 11th Bay and down to enjoy the beach.

Please be aware that the impacted section of the beach will be closed during work hours but will reopen in the evenings and on weekends. Alternate access to the beach is available via 11th View St and other nearby entry points.



The property features three bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. Wake up to the sound of the waves in the morning, and drift off to sleep to the soothing sounds of the ocean at night. The interior boasts spacious living areas, including a welcoming living room, a well-equipped kitchen, and a dining area. Enjoy outdoor living with a private deck that's perfect for watching the sunrise and admiring the sunset over the water. This beach escape is equipped with modern amenities, including high-speed internet, flat-screen TVs, and a well-appointed kitchen with all the necessary appliances. Beach chairs are available.



Guest Access:

This is a private apartment in a duplex. Guests receive unique codes 8 hours before arrival.



The Neighborhood:

Explore the area you'll find local favorites, including restaurants, shops, and outdoor activities. Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to do in Ocean View. From kayaking and paddleboarding in the bay, to exploring nearby parks and nature reserves, there are endless opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors.



Despite its tranquil coastal setting, Ocean View is conveniently located near Norfolk's urban amenities. Downtown Norfolk is just a short drive away, providing access to shopping, cultural attractions, and employment opportunities, making it an ideal place to live for those seeking the best of both worlds.



Getting Around:

We recommend guests bring their own vehicle or utilize ride shares or taxi companies.
