Tom & Dariya's overview

Our read on this home

by Tom & Dariya Milan, REALTORS® · Brokered by LPT Realty

At a glance

5B Stewart Drive is a land parcel in Franklin, Virginia — a small city with a tight-knit community feel, easy access to everyday conveniences, and room to build or invest exactly the way you envision. This is raw potential on your terms.

Read the full overview ↓

Why this home stands out

Vacant land in an established small city is genuinely rare. 5B Stewart Drive gives you a blank canvas inside Franklin's city limits, where utilities and services are already part of the surrounding fabric. Whether you're planning a custom build, a long-term hold, or a project that fits your own timeline, this parcel hands you the starting line without locking you into someone else's floor plan or finish choices.

ALL OTHERS AREA 67 and the Franklin real estate market

Franklin, Virginia sits in Southampton County in the western corner of Hampton Roads — far enough from the metro bustle to feel genuinely unhurried, close enough to stay connected. The city grew up around the Blackwater River and a strong manufacturing and agricultural heritage, and that roots-deep character still shows in how neighbors interact and how the downtown core holds together. Stewart Drive places you in a residential pocket of Franklin where single-family homes and modest lots define the streetscape. Daily errands are a short drive away, and the overall pace here rewards people who want space without sacrificing access. Franklin's small-city government means permitting and planning conversations tend to be more accessible than in larger jurisdictions, which matters when you're starting a build from scratch.

What's nearby

Everyday life within a mile of 5B Stewart Drive is surprisingly well-stocked. Dollar General is just half a mile away for quick household runs, and Don Pancho's Cantina and Los Cerezos Latino Store bring variety to your grocery options within a short drive. China Express Restaurant and Domino's Pizza are both under half a mile for low-effort weeknight dinners. Dunkin' and The Lighthouse Project round out your morning coffee choices nearby. For fitness, you have three solid options — TaylorMade Fitness VA, the James L. Camp Jr. Family YMCA, and Anytime Fitness — all within a mile of the parcel.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

Joint Staff J7 in Suffolk is roughly 40 minutes from Franklin, which puts 5B Stewart Drive within practical commuting range for service members who want to stretch their VA loan benefit into something custom-built. Buying land and constructing a home with a VA construction loan is a real path — and Franklin's lower land costs can make that math work in your favor compared to closer-in markets.

For buyers drawn to character

If you've spent years walking through other people's houses and compromising on layouts that never quite fit, 5B Stewart Drive is a different kind of opportunity. Build the footprint you actually want — the mudroom, the workshop, the wraparound porch — on a parcel inside a real, functioning small city with neighbors, services, and a genuine sense of place already in place around you.

More buyer questions

How far is 5B Stewart Drive from Joint Staff J7 Suffolk?

The drive from 5B Stewart Drive to Joint Staff J7 in Suffolk runs approximately 40 minutes under normal conditions, primarily along Route 58 East — a straightforward commute corridor that service members in the area use regularly.

What can you build on this parcel in Franklin, Virginia?

Permitted uses depend on the zoning classification assigned by the City of Franklin, so contacting the Franklin Department of Planning and Community Development directly is the right first step — they can confirm setbacks, allowable uses, and any utility connection requirements for the lot.

Is 5B Stewart Drive in a flood zone?

Flood zone status for this parcel is addressed in the FloodRisk tile on this page, which pulls current FEMA map data for the specific lot boundaries.

Are utilities available at 5B Stewart Drive?

Franklin is a city with established infrastructure, so water, sewer, and electric service are generally available in residential areas — but confirming tap fees, connection points, and capacity for this specific parcel with the City of Franklin Public Works is an essential step before any build planning begins.

Does buying land in Franklin require a special type of loan?

Raw land purchases typically require a land loan or lot loan rather than a conventional mortgage, and construction financing is a separate product layered on top — eligible veterans may also explore VA construction loan options, which can combine land and build costs into a single VA loan instrument.
