Why this home stands out
New construction in an established urban core is a rare combination, and 178 Freeman Drive delivers exactly that. Built in 2026, this four-bedroom townhome gives you the clean slate of a never-lived-in home — modern finishes, fresh systems, builder warranties — without the isolation of a far-flung suburb. The Coliseum Central corridor puts groceries, parks, fitness, and dining within a half-mile walk, while the Langley flight line is just seven minutes away.
TOWNES AT COLISEUM CENTRAL and the Hampton real estate market
Townes at Coliseum Central sits in the heart of Hampton, Virginia, one of the most strategically located cities in all of Hampton Roads. The neighborhood wraps around the Coliseum Central district — a dense, walkable stretch of retail, dining, and green space that gives everyday life a genuinely urban rhythm. Air Power Park is less than a mile away, a nod to Hampton's deep aerospace and military heritage, and Waterwalk at Central Park offers a pleasant outdoor escape just down the road. Hampton itself borders the James River and Chesapeake Bay, giving residents easy access to waterfront recreation, while Interstate 64 threads right through the city, connecting you to Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Newport News, and Williamsburg without a long haul. The city is home to Joint Base Langley-Eustis, one of the premier Air Force installations in the country, which shapes the community's culture and keeps the local economy steady. Whether you're drawn by the military mission, the central location, or simply the value that Hampton offers relative to the broader region, this address puts you squarely in the mix.
