Tangier is definitely a slower pace of life! This house was moved by barge to the Uppers, an area near the port of Tangier. Very few cars are allowed on island. Most get around by bike, walking or golf cart. It’s interesting to pull up street view and see so many people out walking. This fixer upper was built in 1900. It is located in Tangier, Virginia. The house definitely needs work. And of course it is a flood zone. Four bedrooms, one bathroom and 2,068 square feet. $42,000

From the Zillow listing:
Story goes a bardge moved this home to the lands known as the Uppers, an island near the port in Tangier, by the Crockett family. In 2018, the present owners enjoyed life on Tangier and had a successful gift shop from the spacious enclosed front porch. 2068 sq’ with 4 bedrooms, an eat-in kitchen, 1 bath, two enclosed porches and a massive attic. Sturdy home, yet the gardens, paint, and some of the plaster walls need to be redone; additionally, a properly functioning heat and air system. While Tangier is a moderately busy area, it seems the majority of tourists do pass by.
