Avoid the crowds, hectic traffic, cheesy tourist-traps and over-priced restaurants. This unique oasis offers a glimpse of what was, is and what is to come. Literally, delightful cottage at the foot of the Scotland ferry. Thrilling possibilities await the owner of this eccentric property. Experience the breeze from the screened porch while the stresses of the daily grind vanish. Detached outbuilding with electrical power may suit a litany of uses: craft barn, workshop, gardener refuse or simply a he or she shed. Public boat ramp nearby with nautical access to Jamestown, mothball or Ghost fleet upper and lower James river. All items convey, including portable AC unit. Home served by a community well.
