Property Description
Welcome to your dream retreat on the Rappahannock River— a beautifully updated 1890s Farmhouse where historic charm meets effortless modern luxury, and the river is always just a glance away. This water view and water access home is tucked away in the charming village of Weems, VA, and offers stunning views of the Rappahannock and access to some of the Northern Neck's most coveted waterways. Just minutes from the Tides Inn Resort and the boutique shops, restaurants, and marinas of Irvington, White Stone, and Kilmarnock, you'll find everything you need for the perfect coastal lifestyle. From the moment you arrive, the water draws you in. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee on the back deck, enjoying a quiet evening by the community's waterfront firepit, or watching the sky turn shades of gold and lavender at sunset, you'll feel a deep connection to this peaceful, soul-refreshing place. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully designed to blend comfort and style. The main level is warm and inviting, with rich hardwood floors, playful wallpaper, and sunlight pouring in through oversized windows that frame glimpses of the water beyond. The sunroom with its vaulted ceiling is the perfect spot to curl up with a book, while the living and dining rooms provide relaxed gathering spaces for friends and family. The recently renovated kitchen (2024) is a chef's dream, with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and sophisticated appliances—ideal for everything from casual breakfasts to festive dinners. The main-level primary suite is a sanctuary, offering water views, private deck access, a walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath. Upstairs, you'll find three charming additional bedrooms—one large enough to serve as a second owner's suite—plus a spacious hall bath and extra storage. Step outside and embrace the magic of life on the river. Enjoy two acres of sprawling lawn, mature trees, and multiple outdoor living areas including a screened porch, two waterside decks, a welcoming front porch, and a fun horseshoe pit. Spend the day on the water—launch your floats and kayaks from the community dock, fish to your heart's content, or paddleboard as the sun begins its slow descent.
Wrap up the day with happy hour at 77 Social Wine Bar in Irvington or Merroir Tasting Room in Topping (home of the freshest oysters on the East Coast) or gather everyone for a celebratory dinner at the Tides Inn. Then come home, light the firepit, and watch the sunset—the kind people talk about for years—right from your own backyard. A large garage-size shed offers plenty of storage for water toys and gear. High-end furnishings,and home goods are available separately to make this a truly turnkey home. This is more than just a home—it's a front-row seat to the best sunsets in the Northern Neck and a life filled with river breezes, coastal charm, and everyday serenity. Don't miss the chance to make it yours.
