Fawncrest Estates Opens for Sales in Williamsburg/ James City County
Development is officially underway at Fawncrest Estates, a brand-new neighborhood by Lennar Homes located off Jolly Pond Road in James City County. This community was once planned as an expansion of Colonial Heritage but is now moving forward as its own stand-alone neighborhood.
Community Highlights
50 Homesites – Spacious lots ranging from 1 to 1.5 acres. Conservation Focus – Over 282 acres preserved in a permanent conservation easement, protecting the natural beauty of the area. Buffers – A 150-foot green buffer will remain along Jolly Pond Road and Cranston’s Mill Pond Road, preserving the rural character of the area. Utilities – All homes will be connected to public water and sewer. Basements – Every home will include a basement; finishing is optional if you’d like more living space. Garages – Select homes will feature three-car garages. HOA – The monthly homeowner association fee will be $75.
Homes & Availability
The floor plans offered here are also being built in other Lennar communities in the Richmond area. If you’d like to get a feel for the homes before construction wraps up locally, I’d be happy to arrange a tour of those properties.
The first model home at Fawncrest Estates is expected to be completed around November 1, 2025, with the first home deliveries scheduled for December 2025.

Meet Your Local Guide: Mr. Williamsburg
Pssst! I’m going to let you in on a little secret… While I am a real estate agent, I’m not your average one.
I’ve built my reputation on being a local ambassador first and a Realtor second. Known throughout the region as Mr. Williamsburg, I’ve made it my mission to help people fall in love not just with a house, but with the lifestyle of Greater Williamsburg, Richmond, and Hampton Roads. Whether you’re buying, selling, or just daydreaming for now, I bring a blend of deep community insight, honest advice, and creative marketing that helps buyers and sellers get exactly where they want to go.
Looking to sell your home in Fawncrest Estates (or anywhere in Williamsburg)? I take a storytelling approach that goes beyond square footage and granite countertops. I’ll help you showcase your home’s unique story — one that future buyers can connect with on a personal level. Want to see what I mean? Check out my “Every Home Has a Story” series here.

Curious about other Williamsburg neighborhoods or looking farther afield in Yorktown, New Kent, Poquoson, Chesapeake, Suffolk, or even Richmond? I’ve helped hundreds of folks find the community that fits their lifestyle and their budget — whether that means a backyard for the dog, a bike path out your front door, or a quiet cul-de-sac near great schools.
Want to know what it’s like to work with me? Don’t take my word for it — check out what my past clients have said here.
