Description

Privately nestled on over 2.25 acres with more than 400 linear feet of unobstructed water views, this exceptional coastal retreat offers a rare opportunity to experience true waterfront living at its finest. Perfectly positioned on an elevated homesite to capture expansive views and breathtaking sunsets, this property blends privacy, scale, and natural beauty in one remarkable setting. Enhancing its rarity, the shoreline offers the best of both worlds—deep water at the dock suitable for boating (over 6.5ft at low tide!), paired with a coveted white sand beach area, an uncommon and highly desirable feature along this stretch of coastline. Inside, the residence spans over 3,000 sqft and is thoughtfully designed to maximize both comfort and the surrounding scenery, bringing the outdoors in. The main living areas flow effortlessly, creating an ideal environment for entertaining. Generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite, provide peaceful retreats for family and guests alike. Multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces—including expansive decking—offer endless opportunities to relax, entertain, and take in the serene waterfront backdrop. The grounds provide a rare combination of usable space, delivering both privacy and panoramic exposure. The upper-level loft captures incredible views of the Piankatank River, while the lower level opens to a resort-style setting complete with a patio, in-ground pool, gazebo, and covered dining area. Additional features include both an attached and a detached 2-car garage, offering exceptional flexibility for storage, hobbies, or guest parking. Whether enjoyed as a full-time residence or a refined weekend escape, this is a premier offering in Mathews County, just moments from the Chesapeake Bay, marinas, and some of Virginia’s most scenic waterways. Adding to its unique character, this property was once home to the original Twiggs Ferry, which operated across the Piankatank River between Middlesex and Mathews counties in the early to mid-20th century.
