Why this home stands out
New construction in 2026 means everything — roof, systems, appliances, and finishes — starts fresh with you as the first owner. The nearly half-acre lot at Lot 1 Pretlow Street is a genuine standout for the price range in Franklin: enough outdoor space to add a garage, a garden, a playset, or simply room to breathe. At 1,200 square feet across four bedrooms, the floor plan works hard without wasting space.
ALL OTHERS AREA 68 and the Franklin real estate market
Franklin, Virginia sits in Southampton County in the western corner of Hampton Roads, and it carries a distinctly small-city character that larger coastal communities simply can't replicate. Tree-lined streets, a compact downtown, and a tight-knit community make daily life feel unhurried. Pretlow Street sits within Franklin's Area 68 residential corridor — a straightforward, no-frills neighborhood where lots tend to run generous and neighbors tend to know each other. Franklin itself is a city of roughly 8,000 residents with its own city government, utilities, and services, so you get municipal infrastructure without suburban sprawl. US Route 58 connects you westward toward Emporia and eastward toward Suffolk and the broader Hampton Roads metro in under an hour. If you value space, quiet, and the kind of community where a new construction home on a half-acre lot is genuinely attainable, Franklin delivers.
What's nearby
Day-to-day life around Pretlow Street keeps things simple. The Franklin Recreation Department is just 0.6 miles away — an easy walk or quick drive for park time, athletic fields, and community programming. When you're ready to eat out, Shugga's Place is less than a mile down the road at 0.9 miles, a local dining spot that regulars return to again and again. Franklin's small downtown core puts grocery options, pharmacies, and essential retail within a short drive, so errands rarely require a major expedition. The surrounding area rewards those who appreciate a slower pace without sacrificing access.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
Joint Staff J7 in Suffolk is approximately 38 minutes from Pretlow Street — a manageable commute by Hampton Roads standards. A VA loan can make a brand-new four-bedroom home on nearly half an acre genuinely accessible, and Franklin's lower cost of living stretches a housing allowance further than you'd find closer to the coast. It's worth running the numbers.
For first-time buyers
If you've been waiting for new construction that doesn't come with a new-construction price tag in a high-demand zip code, Lot 1 Pretlow Street deserves a close look. Four bedrooms, two full baths, and a 2026 build means no deferred maintenance surprises — just a clean start on a spacious lot in a real neighborhood with room to grow.
