Price Improvement! Private Waterfront Retreat on 12 Acres in Virginia’s Northern Neck. Set along a quiet cove of the Corrotoman River, this rare waterfront estate with 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths, and over 5,000 sq. ft. of finished space - offers privacy, natural beauty, grand spaces and timeless charm — the perfect retreat for gathering with family and friends for a weekend at the River! An impressive gated entrance and long winding lane and landscaped grounds welcome you to this special home. On the water side, a gently sloping lawn leads to a zero-entry sand beach and private pier, where you can launch a kayak, drop crab pots, throw in a fishing line or simply sit back and take in the amazing views. You feel a world away in this private, storybook setting — yet you’re just minutes from the boutique shops and fine dining of Irvington, White Stone, and Kilmarnock, the heart of Virginia’s coastal Northern Neck. Inside, the home is as impressive and inviting as its surroundings. The stately entry is flanked by a formal living/music room and a large formal dining room - each with it's own fireplace - and leads past a stunning staircase to the bright and sunny heart of the home. The GORGEOUS kitchen combines chef’s-quality design with coastal elegance — quartz counters, a dream 6-burner range and hood, and dazzling natural light — opening to a waterside breakfast room and welcoming family room with a fireplace and built-ins. The sunroom invites long, lazy afternoons with a book or glass of wine, and the main level balcony and brick terrace are both ideal for breakfast in the morning. There's a convenient mud room and full bath off the kitchen and garage - ideal for coming in from the water. The main-level primary suite encompasses its own wing of the home and offers beautiful water views, a cozy sitting area, spa bath, and massive walk-in closet. Upstairs, four oversized guest rooms, two spacious baths stretch along a grand hallway, each with space and privacy to make visitors feel at home. The upper level also includes two large storage rooms, a second laundry, a full kitchenette, built-in reading nook and waterfront balcony. On the lower level, you’ll find a large recreation room, workout area, full bath, workshop, and abundant storage with built-in shelving for water toys, crafts, and seasonal gear. There’s plenty of space to create a bar, teen lounge, playroom, or home office — whatever fits your life best. Nearly every major room captures the beauty of the river — from the kitchen, sunroom and primary, to the upstairs bedrooms and recreation room — offering endless views of changing light, fall foliage, and sparkling water. The property is professionally landscaped with a circular drive framed by boxwood hedges, a vine-wrapped dining pergola, a reflecting pool, quarter-mile wooded trail, two-car attached garage, and a three-bay detached garage/barn with loft storage — perfect for a future guest house, boat/ATV storage or a car collection. Plenty of room for the gardener in the family or a future pool. With its blend of grand architecture, serene natural beauty, and direct water access for boating, kayaking, swimming, and crabbing, this estate captures everything people love about waterfront life in Virginia. Homes of this scale, quality, and privacy — on protected water — are a true rarity in the Northern Neck. This one is more than a home; it’s a riverfront legacy. *5 bedrooms shown, 4 bedroom septic.
