For the first time ever, a rare York River riverfront property is available — a once-in-a-generation opportunity to live where the water defines every day. The York River flows directly to the Chesapeake Bay, offering deepwater navigation perfect for boating, sailing, fishing, or simply enjoying the tides. Mornings here begin with sunlight dancing across the river, and evenings end with spectacular sunsets over your private beach. The expansive riverfront yard invites docks, gardens, entertaining, or quiet moments by the shore — all with uninterrupted views of the river. Just minutes from historic Yorktown and Riverwalk Landing, with restaurants, boutiques, and deepwater piers, and close to York River Yacht Haven, a full-service marina with slips, fuel, and dockside amenities, this property offers everything a boater could want. Launch a boat at dawn, cruise toward the Chesapeake Bay, or paddle along tidal channels — life on the water is effortless here. Nestled on this extraordinary parcel is a home built in the 1930s, full of history and character, ready for someone to restore, reimagine, or expand. While the house adds charm, the true treasure is the riverfront lifestyle: boating, sunsets, privacy, and connection to the water. For buyers seeking direct riverfront living, deepwater access, and breathtaking sunsets over the York River, this is a rare opportunity to create a private waterfront retreat in coastal Virginia.
