Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

What sets 13 Crescent Drive apart is its walkable pocket of Franklin — a restaurant, a YMCA, and a park all within a mile. The 1974 construction gives the home a solid, established feel with room-sized spaces that newer builds rarely match at this square footage. For buyers who want a manageable footprint without sacrificing elbow room, this three-bedroom layout delivers.

HOLIKNOLL and the Franklin real estate market

Franklin, Virginia is a small independent city tucked into the southeastern corner of the state, bordered by Southampton County and threaded through by the Blackwater River. It's the kind of place where neighbors know each other's names and the pace of daily life is genuinely unhurried. Crescent Drive sits in a quiet residential stretch of the city where mature trees line the streets and the neighborhood has a settled, lived-in character that takes decades to develop. Franklin punches above its size when it comes to community amenities — a strong YMCA presence, accessible green space, and a walkable downtown core all contribute to a quality of life that surprises first-time visitors. The city's location along US-58 keeps larger Hampton Roads markets within reach while preserving that small-city feel that's increasingly hard to find.

What's nearby

Step outside and daily life comes together quickly. The Back Porch & Grille is just 0.3 miles away — an easy walk for a weeknight dinner. The James L. Camp Jr. Family YMCA is also 0.3 miles out, making it simple to build a consistent fitness routine without a long commute. Blackwater Park is 0.8 miles away, offering open space for weekend walks or an afternoon outside. If you prefer a private gym setting, TaylorMade Fitness VA is a mile down the road. Cameron Car Wash sits 0.5 miles away for quick errands.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Joint Staff J7 in Suffolk is roughly 39 minutes from 13 Crescent Drive — a manageable commute for service members stationed there. Franklin's lower cost of living stretches a housing allowance further than many Hampton Roads zip codes, and a VA loan can make ownership here especially straightforward. Families comparing military-friendly communities in the region will find Franklin's pace and proximity worth a close look.

For first-time buyers

At 1,668 square feet across three bedrooms and two baths, 13 Crescent Drive offers a layout that's easy to grow into without being overwhelming to maintain. Franklin is one of the more accessible entry points in the broader Hampton Roads region, and a VA loan — if you qualify — can simplify the path to closing. The walkable amenities nearby mean you're set up for daily life from day one.
