Property Description

Welcome to 251 Gena Court, a spacious and inviting Newport News home offering a versatile layout, thoughtful updates, and plenty of room to relax or entertain. The attractive exterior, mature trees, fenced backyard, two-car garage, and welcoming entry create a great first impression, while the interior offers soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and comfortable living spaces throughout. The dramatic main living area features a vaulted ceiling, updated flooring, and large windows that fill the room with natural light. An open overlook from the upper level adds architectural interest and enhances the home’s bright, airy feel. The kitchen is designed for both function and gathering, with warm wood cabinetry, granite countertops, tile flooring, a decorative backsplash, stainless steel dishwasher, and plenty of prep and storage space. Just beyond the kitchen, a generous bonus area with a wood-burning fireplace creates the perfect spot for a game room, second living area, or casual entertaining space. The primary bedroom offers a comfortable retreat with ample space, ceiling fan, and easy access to the bath and closet areas. Updates throughout the home include a downstairs bathroom renovation in 2020, updated hall bath lighting, fresh paint in the primary bathroom, updated dining room lighting, and a newer vapor barrier installed by PestOut. Major improvements include HVAC systems from 2003 and 2013 that have been maintained twice yearly, a 2017 dishwasher, 2018 gutter guards, a 2021 skylight and shed, a 2023 water heater, a 2024 stove, and a brand-new roof in 2026. Step outside to the rear deck overlooking a fenced backyard shaded by mature trees—ideal for grilling, dining outdoors, gardening, pets, or simply unwinding. The shed provides additional storage, and the basketball hoop conveys. Conveniently located near shopping, dining, military installations, medical facilities, and major commuter routes, 251 Gena Court combines space, updates, and everyday convenience in one welcoming home.
