Why this home stands out
New construction in 2026 means you're the first person to live here — no inherited quirks, no deferred maintenance, just fresh systems, current building codes, and a layout designed around how people actually live today. Five bedrooms and three and a half baths across 3,174 square feet gives everyone room to spread out, and the address puts you within a ten-minute drive of two military installations while keeping Colonial Williamsburg practically in your backyard.
WYNDHAM PLANTATION WEST and the Williamsburg real estate market
Williamsburg carries a weight that few American cities can match — it's where colonial history meets a genuinely livable modern community, and 113 Wax Myrtle Drive sits right in that sweet spot. The 23185 zip code places you close to the historic district without being hemmed in by it, so you get the charm of brick-lined streets and centuries-old landmarks as a backdrop to everyday life rather than a tourist inconvenience. The broader Williamsburg area draws a diverse mix of residents: military families rotating through nearby installations, professionals tied to William & Mary, retirees who came for a visit and never left, and young families who discovered that the city punches well above its size in parks, dining, and culture. Neighbors tend to put down roots here. The city is compact enough that errands rarely require a highway, yet connected enough via I-64 that Richmond and Hampton Roads are both under an hour away. Among Williamsburg homes for sale, a 2026-built five-bedroom in this location represents a genuinely rare combination of scale, newness, and walkability.
