Incredible opportunity to own a 1 of a kind property with approximately 22 acres combined on the Rappahannock River! “Oyster House” is situated on its own 1-acre island, surrounded by the Rappahannock River, offering panoramic views from every corner! The partially finished main level contains multiple rooms with a roughed in bathroom, while the second floor offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, kitchen, and a living room. While walking around the property, you will see a boat ramp that you can easily launch a kayak or small boat from. Following the causeway back to shore, to the top of the property, you will find an 1800’s Farmhouse and Post Office/ store nestled on nearly 20 private acres with approximately 1500 feet of shoreline and beautiful sandy beaches. After spending time on the beach, take a relaxing stroll along the property trails to the private pond. This property is truly one of a kind and one you don't want to miss!
The property was previously listed on Airbnb and may have future income potential. The farmhouse is currently being cleaned out by the previous tenant and may not be available to show at this time.
Although the causeway was once drivable, it will need repairs to make it drivable again. The property is accessible during low tide.
The listing includes property: 2575 Butylo Rd & 2589 Butylo Rd
