What's special

Chesapeake bay accessOffice spaceNative landscapingDetached garage with electricityProtected-water dockingWater-facing living spacesCustom covered boathouse

Tucked into a protected deep-water cove along the Coan River, this 1.7-acre waterfront property delivers the boating lifestyle buyers search for. A 200-foot lighted pier leads to a custom boathouse with a covered slip, 12,000-lb boat lift, additional 1,500-lb lift, power and water pedestal, and approximately 3–4 feet MLW. Step aboard from your own covered boathouse, spend the day tubing on the Coan, cruising the Potomac or fishing the Chesapeake Bay, then enjoy dinner as the sun sets across the water. Inside, the 2,600-square-foot home is designed for flexibility and entertaining, with multiple living areas, office space, two kitchens, and three distinct sleeping areas. Expansive covered decking and water-facing living spaces create seamless indoor-outdoor living, peaceful views, cool river breezes, and the kind of quiet that is increasingly hard to find. Many improvements have been completed in recent years—including the custom covered boathouse, roof, siding, HVAC systems, windows and doors, flooring, electrical service, tankless water heater, and appliances- The work has been done, so the next owner can bring their boat and begin enjoying the water. Set well off the road on a wooded park-like setting with native landscaping, minimal upkeep, and exceptional privacy. Enjoy morning coffee on the deck, gather friends after a day on the water, or watch wildlife along the shoreline, this river house has it all! A detached garage with electricity and space for boating and fishing gear adds to the appeal. Conveniently located just 1.6 miles from Coan Marina and within easy reach of waterfront towns, restaurants, wineries, and shopping. Whether your passion is fishing, cruising, kayaking, or simply escaping the pace of everyday life, this Northern Neck retreat offers a rare combination of protected-water docking, Chesapeake Bay access, extensive boating infrastructure, exceptional privacy and low-maintenance waterfront lifestyle that is increasingly difficult and costly to recreate today.
