Why this home stands out
New construction in Franklin is a short list, and 104 Summit Path sits at the top of it. Built in 2025, this three-bedroom townhome delivers the kind of clean slate that older homes simply can't match — fresh systems, current building codes, and a layout designed for the way people actually live today. The Summit is a tight, well-planned community, and this address puts you right in the middle of it.
THE SUMMIT and the Franklin real estate market
The Summit is one of Franklin's newer residential communities, and it carries that new-neighborhood energy — clean streetscapes, young trees, and neighbors who are all starting fresh chapters at roughly the same time. Franklin itself is a small, tight-knit city in Southampton County, positioned along the Blackwater River in the western corner of Hampton Roads. It's the kind of place where the pace is slower by design, local roots run deep, and you're far enough from the metro noise to actually exhale. Downtown Franklin is just minutes away, with city hall, local eateries, and community events that keep the calendar full. The city punches above its weight for its size, and The Summit gives you a clean, comfortable base from which to enjoy all of it.
