Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the combination of new construction and genuine elbow room — 1.14 acres in a small, established neighborhood gives you breathing space that most newer builds simply can't offer. You're getting a clean slate inside with a lot size that invites outdoor projects, gardening, or just the kind of privacy that's increasingly hard to find at this price point in Hampton Roads.
SCOTTSWOOD and the Franklin real estate market
Scottswood is a low-key residential neighborhood tucked into the city of Franklin, Virginia — a small, tight-knit community in Southampton County in the southeastern corner of the state. Franklin sits along the Blackwater River and carries the easy pace of a small Southern city where neighbors actually know each other. The city has a genuine Main Street character, with local businesses, a historic downtown core, and a community that takes pride in its roots. For a new construction home in Franklin Virginia, Scottswood offers an unusually calm setting — no through-traffic, modest lot sizes that still give you room, and a neighborhood feel that larger subdivisions rarely achieve. Southampton County surrounds you with farmland and forest, making the sky feel bigger and the evenings quieter. Franklin is roughly an hour from Virginia Beach and about 45 minutes from Suffolk, putting you within reach of Hampton Roads without the density.
What's nearby
Day-to-day life at 23205 Scottswood Drive keeps things simple. Kind Box Catering & Delivery is just 0.4 miles away — a convenient option when you want a good meal without the drive. Franklin's downtown is close enough for errands, local dining, and community events. The Blackwater River and surrounding natural areas give outdoor enthusiasts easy access to fishing, kayaking, and wildlife watching. Southampton County's rural character means you're never far from open land, and the broader Hampton Roads metro is reachable for bigger shopping trips or weekend plans.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Joint Staff J7 in Suffolk is roughly 44 minutes from Scottswood Drive — manageable for a daily commute, and the tradeoff is significant: a brand-new home on over an acre of land at a fraction of what comparable new construction costs closer to base. A VA loan can make financing a new build like this especially straightforward, and Franklin's low cost of living stretches a BAH dollar further than most Hampton Roads zip codes.
For families upgrading
If your current home feels like it's shrinking, 23205 Scottswood Drive offers a real reset. Four bedrooms, two and a half baths, and 2,000 square feet of new construction means no deferred maintenance, no outdated layouts to work around — just a home built to current standards with room for everyone. The 1.14-acre lot adds the outdoor space that growing families consistently say they wish they'd prioritized sooner.
