Neighborhood description
Located on the East River in Mathews County, Virginia, this Vacation Farm House enjoys a deep water navigable channel with direct access to the Atlantic via Chesapeake Bay and is only 35 nautical miles to Virginia Beach.
If sailing's your passion, you'll like that there's no bridge or electric lines to get in your way. For day sailing, you'll enjoy Mobjack Bay, often considered a salt water lake, where you won't be dragged about by currents.ÂÂ
This is Mobjack Bay Country, an area of historical homes with people who appreciate the attractions of open water. Enjoy living as if you're on vacation. Have fun sailing, fishing, swimming, kayaking, biking, and sunning while delighting in the view.
The property also includes part of historic Hicks Wharf, which used to incorporate a steamboat landing and post office. The farmette is only a two-hour drive to Virginia Beach and three hours to Washington, DC.
