Wow! Now that is quite a setting! Extremely unique and rather tempting. This fishing cottage was built in 1934. It is located on .48 acre in Kilmarnock, Virginia. The property has a dock on each side and there is a boat house that comes with a boat. The interior of the house isn’t bad and I’m really surprised it has septic. One side of the property is on the Rappahannock River and the other is on Beach Creek. One bedroom, one bathroom and 740 square feet. $299,950

ONCE IN A LIFETIME INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY! WATER ON BOTH SIDES! This vintage and quaint fishing cottage comes mostly furnished with a boat ready to go in the boathouse! Just bring your fishing rod and bathing suit and enjoy! Step out of your front door and onto your own private beach on the Rappahannock River! Enjoy amazing waterfront views from the two docks, one fronting Beach Creek and the other the Rappahannock! The half acre lot is very private and feels like a park or private beach setting with water on both sides! The original cottage includes a screened porch that overlooks the water, perfect for relaxing, entertaining or watching a sunset! Wooden walkways connect the home to the beach, docks, boathouse, and walking trail. The interior space of the home can accommodate the whole family for a day at the river. The back room with sliding doors has ample room to be used as another bedroom, and the wall of windows and double glass doors on the front of the home showcase the dreamiest sunsets the Rappahannock has to offer! It is fully equipped with a charming original exposed wood interior, an open kitchen, wood burning fireplace, and a full bathroom just waiting for your cosmetic renovations! Well pump replaced (2024), Septic pumped (2023), Jetty Wall (2022) and updated plumbing are some of the many things that make this property a great vacation/fishing get-way or a great AirBnB Opportunity!
