Property Description
A rare opportunity to restore a grand waterfront residence in the heart of Onancock! The original portion of this historic home dates to the 1800s, offering remarkable character and approximately 4,141 square feet of living space. Inside, you will find magnificent moldings, original architectural details, spacious rooms, wood floors, and five fireplaces throughout the home with one exterior on the deck. The flexible floor plan includes five or more bedrooms, with additional unfinished space on the third floor and above the attached garage providing possibilities for future bedrooms, a studio, home office, or recreation space. Outdoor features include a large deck with an exterior fireplace, a fenced yard, and frontage on picturesque Onancock Creek. The existing dock is in need of repair but offers the potential to restore direct access to the water. The home has a whole house generator for peace of mind. Located within the Town of Onancock, the property is served by public water and sewer and is convenient to the town's shops, restaurants, galleries, theater, and waterfront attractions. With fantastic bones, substantial square footage, historic character, and an exceptional waterfront setting, this property is ready for a buyer with the vision to bring it back to its full potential. Priced to sell at approximately $180,000 below the current county assessment. Property is being sold strictly as-is. Inspections are welcome for informational purposes.
