Why this home stands out
What sets 169 Highland apart is its combination of generous square footage — 2,615 feet across three full baths — and a location that puts you within half a mile of Ford's Colony Country Club and Murdoch's at Ford's Colony. That kind of everyday convenience, layered onto a 2004-built footprint with room to breathe, is harder to find than it looks among homes in Williamsburg VA.
