3022 Skipjack Road, Kinsale, VA 22488

Property Description

Rarely does a home at "Sandy Point", a beautiful stretch of land along the Potomac River at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, come to the open market. Most of the homes on Skipjack Road are passed down through the generations of families that have owned property here or are sold off-market. Introducing 3022 Skipjack Road, a classic cape-style river house nestled on a park-like piece of property which consists of 4 parcels totalling 1.8 acres. While many updates have been made by the current owner, much of the original character remains. Beautiful knotty wood pine, a vaulted ceiling and wide river views create a relaxing and soulful retreat. A first floor primary bedroom with an ensuite bath overlooks the water and has a walk-in closet. Another first floor bedroom is adjacent to a full bath. The lofted third bedroom on the second level has a water view and a small, full bath which could easily be enlarged. An open nook area is currently used as an office but could be a cute sitting area. The water view is vast and unobstructed, stretching for miles to the tree lines of the opposite shore of Maryland. The house sits on a double lot facing the water and has 2 other parcels across the road perfect for a guest house and/or garage. A full-length screened porch runs across the river side of the house creating additional space for morning coffee with amazing sunrises and/or evening cocktails while the sun is setting. A truly breathtaking and special location not to be missed. The town of Kinsale is being revitalised with Kinsale Marina ("The Slips") and Kinsale Market, a gourmet market which has been brought back to life by its current owners. There is a cute museum which recounts the history of the area. Kinsale is located 15 minutes from Warsaw and Montross, 30 minutes from Tappahannock and 40 minutes from Kilmarnock. 1.5 hours to RVA. Local farmers' markets, fresh seafood, local meats, and Amish baked goods /cheese throughout the area. An annual 4th of July parade along Skipjack Road is the highlight of the summer.
