Why this home stands out
New construction in 2026 means everything — roof, systems, finishes, warranty — is starting from zero. With five bedrooms across 2,511 square feet, there's genuine flexibility here: a dedicated home office, a guest suite, room for a growing household, or all three at once. That combination of size, newness, and a Williamsburg address is genuinely hard to find in this price band without compromise.
FENTON HOLLOW and the Williamsburg real estate market
Williamsburg carries a reputation that precedes it — colonial history, tree-lined streets, and a pace of life that feels intentional rather than accidental. The 23188 zip code sits on the city's western edge, where newer residential streets give way to the kind of quiet that's hard to manufacture. Michigan Ave itself is a straightforward residential address: no through-traffic drama, no commercial noise bleeding in, just houses and neighbors. The broader Williamsburg community wraps around you with farmers markets, craft breweries, the College of William & Mary's cultural calendar, and Colonial Williamsburg's year-round programming — all within a short drive. James City County and York County both border the area, giving residents access to multiple jurisdictions' parks and services. Families comparing homes for sale in Williamsburg often note how the region threads the needle between small-town feel and genuine regional connectivity — I-64 puts Richmond and Hampton Roads both within reach in under an hour.
What's nearby
Day-to-day errands are easy from 117 Michigan Ave. The Huntsman's Grill and Loose Moose Bar & Grill are both within 0.6 miles — two solid options when you'd rather not cook on a weeknight. Dunkin' is also at that same 0.6-mile mark, which means the morning coffee run is practically effortless. Grocery stores, pharmacies, and the broader retail corridor along Richmond Road are just a few minutes out. Waller Mill Park, one of the area's most popular green spaces, offers trails, kayak launches, and open fields within a short drive — a genuine neighborhood asset that residents use year-round.
For different buyers
For families upgrading
Five bedrooms and three full baths in a brand-new 2026 build means you're not inheriting anyone else's deferred maintenance or dated floor plan. There's space for the kids to spread out, a guest room that actually functions as one, and a primary suite that doesn't require negotiation. Among Williamsburg homes for sale at this size and newness, 117 Michigan Ave is the kind of address that ends the search.
