New Post is a semi-rural neighborhood that's still close to town
New Post is a growing Fredericksburg suburb packed to the brim with activity and recreation. “New Post is a more rural area, but there’s a lot of new construction going on,” says Tracey Farmer, Realtor with Century 21 Redwood Realty and a local expert in Spotsylvania County real estate. She notes many commuters to Washington, DC, have been moving to the area as of late. “They get more house and a lot of times more land for their money,” Farmer says about the area.

Midcentury and modern developments
Though one pocket of the neighborhood closest to Downtown Fredericksburg has smaller 1940s and 1950s homes with price tags on the lower end of things — a three-bedroom, one-bathroom bungalow with 1,000 square feet goes for around $275,000 — most of the housing was built from the late 1980s to today, with plenty of new construction underway and a median single-family sales price of $501,000. Subdivisions are well-planned, with winding streets, some with sidewalks and some without, and home styles like Colonial Revival; most have one- or two-car garages.
Large homes fit for raising a family can be found in New Post.
New Post has a variety of home styles and sizes.

Green spaces like Cosner Park let locals stretch their legs
Recreation is around every corner in New Post. Cosner Park, on the Rappahannock River, offers 11 acres to traverse, athletic fields, and a playground. Book a tee time Fredericksburg Country Club, which boasts an 18-hole course, pool, and tennis facilities, or simply head to New Post Golf Range to work on your drive. Athletics are a way of life in New Post — Fredericksburg Football Club has a large facility and programs for youth of all ages, the Publix Virginia Soccer Training Center serves the youth soccer community, and Fredericksburg Field House offers adult leagues in soccer, volleyball, and more. Haven’t worked up a sweat yet? There’s also a rock-climbing gym, batting cages, and an axe-throwing venue, all within minutes from home. If athletics aren’t your thing, maybe history is: New Post is home to many Fredericksburg Battlefield sites that tell the story of the area’s role in the Civil War’s Battle of Fredericksburg in 1862. Interested in trains? The Rappahannock Railroad Museum is open on Saturday mornings and offers a 45-minute open-air train ride on restored equipment. Into aviation? Shannon Airport is one of the most historic airports in the nation, offering a café with a view of the runway, a museum, and a roster of special events. And speaking of events: Fredericksburg Fairgrounds and all the fun it provides is also just minutes from home.
Kids will love the playgrounds found throughout New Post.

A few shops along Tidewater Trail and easy access to shopping centers
Tidewater Trail/Bus-17 is the main commercial thoroughfare in the neighborhood, from which most subdivisions branch off. Get your groceries and other necessities at The Shops at River Club, which features Weis, CVS, and Starbucks. The dining scene consists of a few mom-and-pops like Strangeways Brewing, which serves up craft beers and light fare from their indoor tasting room and outdoor biergarten, and Perfect Pollo, which serves up fresh-from-scratch Peruvian and Tex-Mex cuisine. Of course, getting to the shops and restaurants in Downtown Fredericksburg is a 3-mile drive up Bus-17, and Fredericksburg’s greatest retail hub is only about 5 miles away at Spotsylvania Town Center and Central Park Plaza, which boast more than 250 additional shops and restaurants.
Local coffee shops will keep you running throughout the day in New Post.

Close to the VRE and I-95
Commuters aren’t far from the Virginia Railway Express, known locally as the VRE, which runs all the way to DC’s Union Station. New Post falls halfway between the Spotsylvania and Fredericksburg stations, so most homes are within about 3.5 miles of either one. Interstate 95 is about 5 miles away from New Post. Other need-to-know services for potential homebuyers: The nearest major airports, Washington Reagan National Airport and Richmond International Airport, are both about 50 miles away, and the nearest hospital, Mary Washington Hospital, is only 5 miles away.
