413 N College Dr, Franklin, VA 23851

Why this home stands out

What sets 413 N College Drive apart is its combination of mid-century bones and a genuinely walkable daily routine. Grocery runs, a quick workout, and a coffee stop are all under a mile away. The half-bath adds real everyday convenience that older homes in this size range often skip. The 1956 build year means solid construction and a floor plan that lives larger than the square footage suggests.

ALL OTHERS AREA 67 and the Franklin real estate market

N College Drive sits in a calm residential stretch of Franklin, where mature trees line the streets and the housing stock reflects decades of steady neighborhood life. The blocks here are a mix of mid-century single-family homes, many owner-occupied for years. It is the kind of street where neighbors know each other and front yards get tended. Franklin itself is a small independent city in Southampton County in southeastern Virginia. It sits along the Blackwater River and has a compact, walkable downtown core. Getting around is straightforward — most of the city is reachable in under ten minutes by car. US-58 connects Franklin to the wider Hampton Roads region to the east and to Emporia to the west. Anyone browsing homes for sale in Franklin will notice that N College Drive offers quick access to both the city center and the main commercial corridor without sitting directly on a busy road.
