Keywords:  Beachfront House

Bay Avenue Beachfront House rental right on what is left of the beach in the Town of Cape Charles. Panoramic water views and the sunsets from our two storiy porches are some of the best on the east coast. A truly unique beach home, it was built in 1915 and completely renovated in 2004. Water views from every window.

General Info - This home is furnished and comfortable. Hardwood floors throughout and ceramic tile in baths. New, two-zone central heat and air conditioning. Formal dining room seats six. Eat-in kitchen with water-views. The fully outfitted kitchen features dishwasher, large refrigerator, Jenn-Air gas cook top and real walnut butcher block counter-top. There are two master suites, plus two additional bedrooms. Outdoor shower and foot wash for sandy kids coming back from the beach right out front. You can watch the kids from the porch.

First Floor - Enjoy the large front parlor, family room, kitchen, dining room, 70 feet of waterfront porches and outdoor dining area to watch the kids or enjoy a meal, cocktail or the sunset. Bedroom #1 is on the first floor, and is a Master Suite with King bed, oversized Jacuzzi jetted tub plus shower.

Second Floor - The second floor has an additional 70 feet of waterfront porches as well as three more bedrooms; Bedroom # 2 is a second master suite with a Queen bed, Private Bath and three large waterfront windows. Bedroom # 3 has a Queen bed and water views and Bedroom #4 has one Full bed. Bedrooms #3 and #4 share a bath. On-street parking is available.

The Town - Be prepared for quiet. There is not much to do in Cape Charles, which can be nice if you need to unwind, however, it can get boring. Don't say we did not warn you. There are 2 nice golf courses at Bay Creek, which also has a Tavern and a restaurant. The town itself has one pub, a coffee shop and no shopping to speak of. The beach nice but is shallow, at low tide only coming up to your waist 100 yards out. Also, there are no waves, since Cape Charles is on the Cheasapeake Bay, not on the ocean. This is good for young kids, but may not meet your expectations of a "beach" vacation.

The Eastern Shore of Virginia is remote and rural. It is a nature lover's paradise! Kayak, sail, surf fish right out front of the house (must have fishing license) or fish at the new town fishing pier 4 blocks away. If you crave excitement, shopping or crowds, choose another destination. Kids usually get bored after 2 or 3 days, so plan a 35 mile trip to Virginia Beach and Norfolk. Historic Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown are within one and one half hours away. Busch Gardens amusement park is also located in Williamsburg.
