The owners are diligent in their care of the environment noting 35 Acres are reforested with Pine, and 25 Acres with Hardwood.

The driveway is gravel and travel through both sunny and shaded areas comin to the fork in the road, you proceed right to the main house and cottage and orchards and left to the two bedroom, pasture fence, barn, stable and star gazing crest.

The N Meherrin River reportedly has a half mile of frontage at Crickets Cove.  It is untouched wonderment of nature for wildlife and yet adventurous for trail blazers and fun during the first winter snow.


There are catchment ponds throughout the property to provide sustainable farming and care for the surface.  No additives keeps life pure!  Two of the ponds are stocked and one sits just across the drive from the main house which enhances the guest cottage to be waterfront!

What should buyers check before purchasing a waterfront home in Victoria, VA?

The big four: flood-zone designation and what flood insurance will actually cost, the condition of any seawall or shoreline protection, how salt and moisture exposure have been managed (roof, windows, HVAC), and any rules covering docks, rentals, or shoreline changes. Ask for elevation certificates and insurance history up front.

Does waterfront property hold its value?

Waterfront homes are scarce by definition and historically command a durable premium, but carrying costs (insurance, maintenance) run higher than inland homes — so the right comparison is net of those costs. A local agent can show waterfront-vs-inland resale history for the area.
