About this property

Where peace is sitting by the moonlight

Located in the heart of Virginia’s historic Northern Neck approximately 2 hours from Washington, DC, Williamsburg and Richmond, VA; this fully furnished waterfront home rests on a protected creek located on the western shore of Parker Creek and the Yeocomico River in a private residential neighborhood.

This home has an open floor plan that includes beautiful panoramic views of the water from every room of the house, ceiling fans in all rooms, and casement windows to let in the breeze. Three bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms with a dual system central air and heat.
The spacious kitchen with bar and central island opens into the breakfast area with a waterside living room and game area equipped with ping pong table for game nights. Master bedroom has a nursery nook overlooking the water.
The backyard has a large firepit and a two level pier, 2 ft MLW perfect for your kayaks and small fishing (jon) boats. The home is located within two minutes of the Sandy Point Marina that provides boat launching facilities and gasoline.

Make a day trip to Kings Dominion, Busch Gardens and Historical Williamsburg only 1+ hour away or rent a charter boat and enjoy fishing the Chesapeake Bay. Check out the birth place of George Washington and many historical museums and battlefield near Fredericksburg. Eat waterside at local restaurants, play a round of golf at nearby golf courses or try local winery tours. Antique shopping is a fun way to spend a morning or afternoon.

Visit the official site of the Northern Neck site for upcoming events, shopping, dining, and activities.

About the host

Hosted by Maria

Host profile image
Welcome to Kinsale Cove Retreat, my home away from home. After my oldest sons moved out, I wanted to get a place where the family can come together and spend a few days away from the distractions of the big city sounds and crowds. I enjoy hosting because I feel there is a lot of value in friends and families spending time together in one simple yet quiet place. Sometimes, less is more.

Why they chose this property

The Kinsale/Sandy Point area is a reasonable drive from the DC area and there are enough activities happening around the towns that makes this house enjoyable. I love that is in a secluded neighborhood and close enough to the marina. Bring kayaks, canoes or jon boats and enjoy what the Yeocomico River has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Kinsale Cove is designed to invite conversation and togetherness. You can enjoy sitting on the dock at dawn with a warm cup of coffee, fishing for crabs, canoeing down the river, enjoying a picnic lunch, grilling your favorite meats and my favorite pass time - sitting by the fire at night watching the stars and moon go by. When inside, you can enjoy a good old fashioned game of charades or challenge others to a game of ping pong.
Life is about enjoying each others company - put the cell phones away and live in the moment.
