Property Description
Property is being sold AS-IS. Investors, renovators, and buyers with a vision will appreciate this distinctive property along the Rappahannock River, featuring a main residence, a separate two-bedroom cottage, and the former Riverside Motel. Mature trees, expansive lawn areas, and picturesque river views create a memorable setting with room to bring your ideas to life.
The main residence blends traditional character with modern updates, including a renovated kitchen and three renovated bathrooms. Spacious adjoining living and dining areas feature warm wood floors, tall windows, wide doorways, and classic trim. An exposed brick chimney and freestanding stove create a distinctive focal point, while glass-paneled doors and abundant windows bring natural light throughout the gathering spaces.
The renovated kitchen offers white cabinetry, light countertops, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, and a center island with an additional sink. Generous cabinet and counter space provides room for meal preparation and storage, while the beadboard ceiling and recessed lighting complement the home's character.
The three renovated bathrooms feature updated vanities, fixtures, and tilework, including tiled showers and a tub/shower combination. One bathroom offers a spacious double vanity with vessel sinks, white plank walls, and decorative tile flooring. Additional interior highlights include extensive built-in shelving and cabinetry, paneled doors, beadboard accents, and bright bedrooms. Portions of the home still need finishing touches, offering an opportunity for the next owner to complete the work to their preferences.
Expansive enclosed porch and sunroom spaces provide additional areas for relaxing and gathering, with rows of windows, multiple sets of French doors, beadboard ceilings, and views of the surrounding grounds. A large outdoor patio adds space to enjoy the property's peaceful waterfront setting.
The separate cottage features two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a covered front porch. It needs a little TLC and offers potential for guest accommodations or other uses permitted by local authorities.
The former Riverside Motel offers a unique restoration opportunity and a connection to Port Royal's past. The motel is non-operational and requires major renovation. PLEASE ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK. An existing dock adds to the property's waterfront setting; its condition and authorized use are to be verified by the buyer.
The property is documented within the Port Royal Historic District, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Virginia Department of Historic Resources ID 284-0047-0013 identifies the property, and the district inventory classifies the former motel and one secondary dwelling as contributing resources. The district's National Register reference number is 70000786.
Explore the possibilities for a waterfront retreat, restoration project, or investment, subject to applicable requirements and approvals. No representation is made regarding approval of any future residential, rental, lodging, commercial, or redevelopment use.
