About Virginia Liberatore
Purchased in 1999 as a weekend project and retreat. We spent the next 5 years getting the house updated so that family and friends could visit and enjoy this historic property. As anyone who owns a home knows, the work is never done. Our home has been the sight of many happy and sad memories. After my husband's passing, I listed it with a local realtor for several years and in 2014 I placed it on the VRBO site. I have been pleased with the responce and look forward to sharing my home with many others in the future.

Why Virginia Liberatore chose Crisfield
This location is one of a kind! In the last year, LaVallette has beeen getting a much needed FACE LIFT. Beginning in 2017, new insulation and siding was added to the exterior along with new screens on side and front porch. In 2018, the work continues with a new coat of paint on the metal rood and new exterior doors. Finally some native grasses and other plantings have been added to enhance the overall appearance for renters to enjoy.
What makes this House unique
For the traveler who seeks peace, isolation and panoramic views of the bay this property delivers. The town of Crisfield can be seen in the distance and is a short bike ride away. Set your sight in another direction and you can see Smith, Tangier Island and the unspoiled shores of Jenkins Creek. While the house has been comfortably updated, it still contains 4 original fireplaces from this homes storied past. The chimneys have been landmarks for boaters for more than 100 years. It is especially well suited for star gazers, birders, kayakers or anyone who loves nature and getting away from the frenzy of our digital world. http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewarticle.asp?id=17569&fbclid=IwAR2NpFtQHzaA_N8hZVBS5y_MBkE5XsU6RVe780GPU_Dz06hiC95KVmg7pvA
