About this property
Victorian Farmhouse w/ private waterfront & pier at the mouth of Mobjack Bay
Circa 1921 - original home to sea captain W.H. Machen. This newly renovated and restored Victorian, 3 story home is part of the Village of Mobjack, a quaint village where previous life focused on fishing and crabbing. Nominated for historic significance based on its contribution to commerce and unique collections of homes located on the East River and Mobjack Bay. (fairfieldfoundation.org). The home is located on 2.6 acres with water front on the East River including a private dock giving water access to boating, kayaking, fishing and swimming along with an adjacent marina for those with larger boats (compassmarina.com).
Perfect place to relax with the family and friends while enjoying the nature and water views.
The first floor offers a parlor, spacious living room, large dining room, library/media room with TV and seating, kitchen with eating nook, mudroom with washer and dryer, full bathroom, front and back access to second floor. Second floor offers four large bedrooms all with TVs (3 kings and 1 queen), large double sink vanity with shower, and access to the third floor. Third floor offers two bedrooms (1 full bed and 2 twins), large family entertainment room with 65" TV, bar with beverage fridge and multiple seating areas.
The exterior of the house has large columns with a wrap around porch with multiple seating areas, partially screened with dining area. The porch offers views to the water and marina. Large shade trees with multiple swings for family enjoyment, picnic table, and camp fire with seating on the back side of the house (gas firepit).

About the area
Bohannon
Located in Westville, this holiday home is on the waterfront. Gloucester Golf Club and Severn Yachting Center are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those in the mood for shopping can visit Main Street Center and Walter Reed Plaza. Make sure you get close to the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.
