Great year around or second home on Ivy Creek off Rappahannock River in quaint fishing village of Morattico. Over the last 10 years home has been upgraded w/ the addition of family room w/ non-vented gas fireplace on waterside & full new bath. Home offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bath on 2nd level. Roadside screened porch & large yard. Great views & nice dock w/ 3 jet ski lifts. Ivy Creek does have controlling depth into river & is used for small boats, jet skis, canoes, & kayaks. Larger boat would have to be kept on trailer or at rented slip. Very close to Belle Isle State Park, which offers many events and outdoor activities. Other upgrades include split heating & cooling systems; main floor has heat pump & gas forced back up furnace & 2nd floor has heat pump. Vinyl shake siding, 2 outdoor sheds & generator. Generator does need repair which owner will do before closing. House is being sold completely furnished, except for very few personal items, including all personal property in both sheds on waterside. Great older, well-built house from early ears of this historic fishing village. Quaint & charming village of primary & secondary home owners.
