This super cute river house is cozy and has everything you need for fulltime living or as a second home. It was used as an Airbnb through most of 2022. There are just 7 homes who share the private dock. Just 15 minutes from Urbanna, 30 from Tappahannock and less by water. The deck on the back was added less than a year ago. Perfect location for fishing, kayaking, boating, crabbing, and just some plain old peace and quiet. Can be sold fully furnished. Owner is a licensed realtor in the State of Virginia
