Waterfront Anyone?

15 - PierSo if the summer months doesn’t make you live on the water, I’m not sure what will!!  And if you want waterfront, it doesn’t get better than this!  This home in nestled on a quiet dead-end road.  In my opinion, it’s located in the best part of York County, easily accessible by Victory Blvd without having to fight all that Route 17 traffic! 
12 - Exterior
The house sits on about 3/4 of an acre and opens up directly to the Poquoson River.  The dock and pier have recently been refurbished and also include electricity and water.  Don’t have a boat?  Use it for jet skis, kayaks or even just some sun tanning until your “one of these days” wish comes true! The backyard and front yard are both landscaped and have LOTS of space for playing and/or entertaining. Both front and back also feature covered porch/patio space!

As you go inside you’re welcomed by an awesome foyer that opens up to living room and has a hall that leads you to the first floor bedroom, bathroom and den – or if you’re one of “those guys” it could make the perfect man cave (more on the features of this room later).

With 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, it has plenty of space for a growing family!  Check out this huge formal dining room/living room set up!  Can’t you see lots of family fun going on in there!?

The kitchen and breakfast nook offer another great space for gatherings!  The kitchen has TONS of cabinet space, including floor to ceiling cabinets on either side of the fridge.  It also has brand new stainless steel appliances.  And don’t forget about the view…wouldn’t you love to drink a cup of coffee in the mornings and look out those windows?

Okay, so back to the man cave!  If you are familiar at all with my battle with wood paneling then you know why I categorize this as a man cave.  My husband LOVES wood paneling.  Me, not so much…it would have to be painted.  He also loves anything related to wood burning, and at the top of his list a wood stove insert!  So this room is perfect for his little “get away room”.  The little box beside the fireplace is an area to store wood…it actually has a backdoor that allows you to load the wood from the garage!  Imagine that!?  Yes, I spent hours trying to convince my husband we do not need to move, just so he can have this room!

Not enough man space for you?  How about a 4 car garage!?  Yup, we’ve got that too.

So where does the wife go with all her hobbies?  This room (see below)!  It has built in bookshelves for books, crafts, magazines, scrapbook stuff, or anything else you can think of!  (yes, I’d paint the bookshelves) And the best part, it’s right beside the man cave, so you can still be close at heart while enjoying some alone time!

It is also located on the first floor, which is perfect for anyone who needs a first floor bedroom for any reason.

So what’s missing?  Storage?  Check!  The downstairs hall has shelved closets, the foyer has a closet and the attic is floored too!

So if all that isn’t enough already, then here is a few more features:
  • 2713 Square Feet of Living Space
  • Fresh Paint Throughout
  • French Doors Leading to Back Patio
  • Master Bedroom Window Overlooking Waterview
  • Cellar/Basement with Workshop and Walk-in Access
  • AND a Huge Laundry/Mud Room with Utility Sink and More Storage Cabinets (see below).

If you’re not sold yet, then your probably not in the market!  The house is listed for $650,000.  And regardless of some of the features being a little outdated, the price is fairly reasonable for this piece of property and a strong, well cared for house like this one!  And the seller is also willing to rent for $2400/month, or workout a Rent-to-Own deal.  
If you’re interested give us a call!  Don’t forget to pass it along to others who you know who may be looking!!
