Neighborhood

Ghent is a historic neighborhood near the Elizabeth River that’s known for being the oldest suburb of the city of Norfolk, with buildings dating back an entire century. The neighborhood’s picturesque architecture makes strolling through the area a delight. This walkable district is ideal for commuters, especially those who prefer to travel by foot. Many residents can walk from their homes to the downtown area, just southeast of the neighborhood, in under half an hour. A drive to downtown only takes about seven minutes.

Although Downtown Norfolk is just a hop and a skip away, residents don’t have to leave the neighborhood for dining and nightlife options. There are plenty of local establishments along Colley Avenue, like the Public House and Press 626 Wine Bar. Ghent is also home to the Eastern Virginia Medical School, the Chrysler Museum of Art, and Plum Point Park.
