Why this home stands out
Homes with this kind of square footage and this much history rarely surface in Franklin. Built in 1910, 504 N High Street gives you six bedrooms and more than 4,100 square feet of space shaped by over a century of craftsmanship. The bones here — high ceilings, generous room proportions, the architectural details that newer construction simply can't replicate — are the main event. If you appreciate a home with a story, this one has plenty to tell.
ALL OTHERS AREA 67 and the Franklin real estate market
Franklin is a small, self-contained city in Southampton County in southeastern Virginia, and N High Street sits right in the heart of it. The street has the kind of mature tree canopy and wide lots that signal an established, walkable neighborhood — the sort of block where neighbors actually know each other. Downtown Franklin is within easy reach, and the Blackwater River adds a natural backdrop to daily life here. The city punches above its size when it comes to community feel: local restaurants, a riverfront park, and a recreation department give residents real reasons to get out and explore. For buyers searching for historic homes in Franklin Virginia, this address puts you at the center of everything the city offers while keeping the pace comfortable and unhurried. Suffolk and the broader Hampton Roads metro are roughly 45 minutes east on Route 58, so you're genuinely close to a larger job market without paying city prices for the privilege.
What's nearby
Step outside and you're already close to a lot. Wydia's Seafood and Steakhouse is just two blocks away, and both Serve and Fred's Restaurant are within a short three-block walk — real options for a weeknight dinner without getting in the car. StoreHouse Coffee is the same distance for your morning routine. Los Cerezos Latino Store covers everyday grocery needs at just 0.6 miles, and Dollar General is a mile out. Barrett's Landing Park and the City of Franklin River Walk Park Kayak Launch are both half a mile away — perfect for a morning walk or an afternoon on the water. TaylorMade Fitness VA is practically next door at 0.1 miles, and The Lighthouse Project rounds out the neighborhood with a community-minded gathering space.
For different buyers
For families upgrading
Six bedrooms and over 4,100 square feet means everyone gets their own space — and then some. Whether you need a dedicated home office, a playroom, or a guest suite, 504 N High Street has room for all of it. Add a walkable location near parks, a kayak launch, and local restaurants, and you have a home that genuinely grows with a busy family rather than constraining it.
For buyers drawn to character
If cookie-cutter construction leaves you cold, 504 N High Street is the antidote. Built in 1910, this home carries the proportions, details, and presence that only a century of standing can produce. Six bedrooms and 4,134 square feet give you the canvas; the original architecture gives you the character. Buyers who want a home that feels distinct — not just large — will find a lot to work with here. A VA loan can make financing a property like this straightforward if you qualify.
