Property Description

Experience the timeless elegance of this beautifully restored 18th-century home. An extraordinary opportunity to own one of Virginia's Eastern Shore's most significant waterfront estates. Encompassing 93.99 acres across 11 separate parcels, this legacy property offers a rare blend of luxury living, investment potential, and future development opportunities. At the heart of the estate sits a beautifully preserved circa-1780 residence positioned on nearly 14 acres with over 1,400 feet of private shoreline. Offering more than 3,600 square feet, the home features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, four fireplaces, a spacious waterside family room, and numerous modern upgrades including updated electrical, plumbing, and multi-zone HVAC systems. Complementing the main residence is a separate 2-acre pondfront parcel improved with a charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest cottage and farm building, creating the perfect setting for guests, caretakers, or additional rental income. The remaining parcels present an exceptional investment and development opportunity, including seven waterfront lots ranging from approximately 7 to over 16 acres each, plus an additional 5.5-acre non-waterfront parcel. Every lot offers approved perc and well sites, desirable Bojac soils, and is located within Flood Zone X, providing added value and flexibility for future construction. Whether envisioned as a private waterfront compound, equestrian retreat, family estate, conservation holding, or premier residential development, this remarkable offering delivers unmatched shoreline, acreage, privacy, and long-term investment potential in the sought-after Cape Charles market. A truly rare opportunity to acquire a generational estate with both immediate enjoyment and future upside.
