Property Description

This offering is two separate lots totaling 2.4 acres. The MLS only has data on one lot. Find your private world in this in this four over four center-hall-colonial from 1846, directly on the Rappahannock River in an historic town. Riverview brings you as close to the river as possible to view a panoramic parade of tidal water, wildlife, and landscapes. After 180 years of sunlight pouring through windows, the heart of pine floor develops a patina, a tint which is warm, almost glowing. Rooms are spacious with high ceilings magnifying proportions of rooms celebrating streams of light from large windows. The owners removed one story additions and then built two story wings to bring forth the modern necessities/conveniences such as the kitchen with great views of the river and bathrooms, also with great water views. Resulting is a pristine 180-year-old gem with integrity and the modern necessities artfully at hand. Eight fireplaces, 3 bedrooms, 3 large full baths, gracing 2.4 acres are in the heart of the historic area of a Town chartered in 1744. The grounds are as compelling as the architecture. A boxwood walk from Water Street to the house has been carefully, meticulously, cared for since the original. The boxwood walk opens to an oval near the house for a small flower garden. The riverbank was terraced at or near the construction of the 1846 house. A staircase with rails leads to a dock. The porch off the center hall is large with rocking chairs to loose oneself in the views of the river and all that goes with it. Nearby, Townfield, circa 1745, is under a conservation easement to the Virginia Department of historic resources. Placing a conservation easement on Riverview might generate a Virginia and federal tax deduction. Riverview is on both the Virginia and National Registers of Historic Places. A 125-acre US Fish and Wildlife Service Refuge with miles of trails is less than a leisurely five-minute walk from Riverview. A detailed Narrative is found in the Document section of the MLS and contains hot links to a 3D interactive house plan, video, history, aerial photos with many photos, both interior and exterior. The house survived bombardment by Union gunboats during the Civil War and is now an opportunity for the next legacy. No AI or artificial sweeteners were used in this description.
