Why this home stands out
What sets 137 Highland apart is its generous floor plan — 2,642 square feet gives you real room to spread out, whether that means a dedicated home office, a playroom, or simply a living space that doesn't feel crowded. Built in 2004, the home hits a sweet spot: modern construction standards without the cookie-cutter feel of newer mass-market builds. Add the Ford's Colony Country Club half a mile away and you have lifestyle infrastructure most addresses can't match.
FORDS COLONY and the Williamsburg real estate market
137 Highland sits in Williamsburg, Virginia — a city that manages to feel both historic and genuinely livable at the same time. James City County wraps around much of this area, and the combination of well-maintained roads, mature tree canopy, and thoughtfully planned communities gives the whole corridor a settled, unhurried character. The Ford's Colony area in particular is known for its golf courses, country club, and the kind of neighborhood where people tend to stay for years. You're close enough to the Colonial Williamsburg historic district and William & Mary's campus to enjoy the cultural energy of the city, yet far enough out that daily life moves at a comfortable pace. The broader Williamsburg market draws a diverse mix of residents — military families, retirees, professionals, and long-timers who simply never wanted to leave. It's easy to see why.
