About this property
Historic Waterfront Home With Big Views Of The Chesapeake Bay
Foxcroft, a lovely, two-story home sits on 5 acres overlooking the Nassawadox Creek and the Chesapeake Bay. This perfect Eastern Shore retreat is 45 minutes from Norfolk International Airport and an hour from Virginia Beach. The property includes a deep-water pier for fishing and boating. The pier is adjacent to a public boat ramp for easy launching of your power boat, sailboat, kayaks and canoes. Or just sit on the custom benches at the end of the pier and watch the beautiful sunset over the Chesapeake Bay.
The house has a newly renovated, open concept kitchen and family room with a wood burning stove and new appliances. The dining room table seats 8 comfortably and double living rooms have plenty of space for entertaining with big water views. The custom screen porch provides additional seating and dining areas and is a wonderful retreat with ceiling fans and views of the creek.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The master bedroom has a king bed (can be split into two singles) and the second and third bedrooms both have two twin beds. The rooms are tastefully decorated in a casual style.
Enjoy walks around the waterfront hamlet of Bayford. Explore the nearby beaches by boat, canoe or kayak or schedule a site seeing trip to the seaside Barrier Islands with Ecotours, Captain Meriwether Payne. Catch your dinner of crab or fish right off the pier.
Foxcroft is 5 minutes to Chatham Vineyards where you can enjoy a tour of the vineyards and winery with a tasting room to sample their wines. The Barrier Island Center Museum is 10 minutes away and provides a wonderful history of the Eastern Shore and its residents. Signature golf courses by Palmer and Nicholas are 20 minutes from Foxcroft. Chincoteague Island is 30 minutes to enjoy the scenic town, biking trails and beaches.
It is a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy the beauty of Virginia's Eastern Shore.

About the host
Hosted by Patrick Gill
We live in Virginia Beach and spend a lot of time on the Eastern Shore. We would love to share Foxcroft with you!
Why they chose this property
I grew up vacationing on the Eastern Shore with my family and brothers. I have owned several homes on the Shore and Foxcroft was the perfect location for our family. My children have grown up spending weekends, summers and holidays there just as I did growing up.
What makes this property unique
Foxcroft is the perfect blend of a country get away with all of the modern conveniences. We fell in love with the incredible views, the tranquility and easy water access. We have renovated the house and landscaping.
