PRICE IMPROVEMENT! Along a quiet stretch of Virginia’s Eastern Shore, where the Chesapeake Bay opens wide to endless horizon, lies Thickett Point, a 44.95± acre waterfront estate defined by privacy, scale, and potential. Set along a commanding reach of shoreline, this rare offering captures the essence of coastal living—expansive bay views, estuarian marshland, and a landscape shaped by water, light, and time. With no conservation easement in place, the property offers an uncommon level of freedom and long-term control rarely found among Chesapeake Bay holdings. At the heart of the estate are two distinct waterfront residences—Sunset House and Bayview House—each thoughtfully positioned to embrace the surrounding landscape and water views. Both homes are offered fully furnished, allowing for an immediate, seamless transition for personal use or continued short-term rental operation. Sunset House is oriented to the west, where each evening unfolds in panoramic color across the Bay. Designed with a relaxed coastal aesthetic, it offers an intimate and refined retreat—ideal for quiet escapes and elevated guest experiences. Bayview House reflects the character and charm of the Eastern Shore, with a more traditional design and a larger footprint suited for gatherings, extended stays, and multi-generational living. Together, the homes create a rare and highly functional composition—one that supports both private enjoyment and hospitality-driven income. The property is currently operated as a successful short-term rental, generating average annual income exceeding $100,000, while still allowing for personal use and flexibility. Beyond its current use, Thickett Point offers significant future upside, with identified utility expansion possibilities that present opportunities for further enhancement, additional improvements, or long-term strategic vision. The land itself is as compelling as the residences—nearly 45 acres of shoreline, marsh, and natural wildlife habitat. Owners and guests enjoy private beach access, kayaking along the Bay, hunting, fishing and crabbing just steps from shore, and the ever-changing presence of coastal wildlife across the surrounding marsh. Despite its sense of seclusion, the property is located just minutes from the historic town of Onancock—home to marinas, fine dining, galleries, and ferry access to Tangier Island—offering a seamless blend of privacy and accessibility. Thickett Point is more than a waterfront property—it is a fully furnished, turn-key Chesapeake Bay estate, offering the rare ability to live, host, invest, and create lasting value from day one.
