Over 30 acres of lawn, woods, and wetlands provide a stunning backdrop to this stately home on the Pamunkey River. The Tidewater design features light oak flooring, 10-foot ceilings, detailed crown moldings, and wainscoting. Most rooms have two walls of windows, providing natural light and views of the River. Highlighting the living room are a marble fireplace and a wall of windows, facing the river. French doors lead to a large porch with herringbone brick floor and arched screens. The spacious dining room shares this porch and a slate terrace. The kitchen blends timeless Geneva cabinets and contemporary elements such as tile floors and tile counters. A cozy library with fireplace, paneled walls, and bookshelves create a quiet respite. The family room with bamboo floors is ideal as an exercise space or office. With a private entrance, the main floor guest suite with bath is very quiet. A bay window sitting area is the delight of the master suite. This luxurious suite has a laundry and two baths with dressing rooms. In addition to 2 guest rooms, there is a private suite with back stairs to the kitchen. Amenities include: guest cottage, 5-bay garage, pier with 2 boat lifts.
