About This Home
Not every property is about what's already been done—some are about what's possible. Hidden among 14 peaceful acres in Gloucester County sits the kind of property that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Long before subdivisions became the norm, homes like this were built with room to breathe, space to work, and land to enjoy. Today, that opportunity is yours to bring back to life. The home offers over 2,600 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, ready for someone with vision to restore it into a beautiful country retreat. Yes, it needs a complete renovation—but the big-ticket systems are already done: the roof is just 5 years old, the whole-home generator is under 10 years old, the 2-zone HVAC is under 7 yrs old. Instead of paying a premium for someone else's choices, you'll design every room exactly the way you want it. Working remotely? 5G wireless and Starlink internet both perform great out here. Step outside and the real magic begins. The acreage offers endless possibilities: horses grazing in pastures, gardens overflowing with fresh vegetables, winding trails through the woods, a workshop for your favorite hobbies, or simply the peace and quiet only a large parcel can provide. The detached garages offer excellent space for a workshop, classic car collection, equipment storage, or recreational toys. When you're ready to venture beyond your own property, Gloucester's renowned river lifestyle is just minutes away. Spend weekends launching your boat on the Ware River, casting a line, kayaking peaceful creeks, catching blue crabs, or enjoying sunsets over nearby Mobjack Bay—the Chesapeake Bay lifestyle without waterfront prices. Convenient to Gloucester Courthouse, shops, restaurants, marinas, and everyday amenities, this property offers privacy and acreage with easy access to everything you need. Bring your imagination, your contractor, and your dreams. This isn't just a house waiting to be renovated—it's a lifestyle waiting to be built.
