Listing details

Welcome to a rare opportunity to own one of King George County’s most captivating properties, offering an extraordinary 92.59 acres and approximately 1,400 feet of private water frontage overlooking Potomac Creek. The property’s river bluffs overlook the same waters navigated by 18th-century merchants and planters transporting goods between Fredericksburg and Chesapeake. The property is also historically significant as a vital Union supply base and landing point during the American Civil War. Surrounded by rolling pasture, mature hardwoods, and sweeping river views, this property blends history, privacy, and modern comfort in a truly exceptional setting. The land is protected by a conservation easement, preserving the natural beauty, wildlife habitat, and pastoral character for generations to come. Originally built in the 1940s with a thoughtful addition in the 1960s, the 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 2,108 sq ft residence was renovated in 2022 to refresh interiors while preserving its traditional character. Inside, sunlight fills the generous living spaces, including a welcoming living room anchored by a stone wood-burning fireplace. Luxury plank flooring extends throughout the main level, adding a modern touch to the timeless design. The bright, updated kitchen becomes a standout feature with its oversized picture window offering seasonal views of the water. Quartz countertops, subway-tile backsplash, AristoKraft cabinetry, a center island with seating and storage, and GE Profile stainless appliances create a space that is both functional and beautiful. The main level includes one bedroom and two full bathrooms for added convenience. The first bath, located near the front entrance, offers a tiled stand-up shower and vanity. The second bath, just off the kitchen, features a shower/tub combo with tile surround, a vanity, and a stacked washer and dryer for everyday ease. Upstairs, a bedroom and open office space (3rd bedroom) feature seasonal, tree-framed water views and original oak flooring, creating warm, inviting spaces ideal for guests or a peaceful work-from-home retreat. An unfinished basement delivers plenty of storage for gear and seasonal items. Out back, a refurbished patio (2025) provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining or evenings spent under the stars. Recent improvements include Marvin windows and doors (2022), septic system (2021), well pump (2025), furnace (2022), tankless water heater (2022), whole-house 24-kW generator (2022), and Starlink internet (2022), ensuring reliable modern living in a private, natural setting. Just steps away, the “Writer’s Cottage” features fresh exterior paint (2024), brick flooring, and large windows. The cottage offers endless possibilities such as an art studio or home office. Across the acreage, you’ll find every amenity needed for a recreational or agricultural lifestyle, including a large barn, a dedicated lawn-equipment shed, established duck blinds, a waterside “fish shack”, and multiple fire-pit areas perfect for gatherings beneath the stars. Meander through gentle meadows to the water’s edge, explore wooded trails, launch kayaks or small boats from your shoreline, or simply watch eagles soar overhead. Directly across the water lies the protected 3,000+-acre Crow’s Nest Natural Area Preserve, offering timeless, unobstructed views and a pristine natural setting. Steeped in history, this remarkably preserved landscape tells a story that spans Native American habitation, colonial settlement, and Civil War events. Whether enjoyed as a full-time residence, weekend escape, or generational homestead, this property delivers exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and located just a short drive from Fredericksburg, Dahlgren, and major commuter routes into Northern Virginia and DC. A once-in-a-generation offering on one of the Potomac’s most scenic stretches — ready for your next chapter. Conservation information in Docs Section.
