Property Description

Breathtaking views, water sports, fishing and hunting - something for everyone year round. High Bank, located on the Mattaponi River half way between Rt. 33 and Rt. 360, is a gracious modern private retreat showcasing a southern lifestyle with easy access to Williamsburg, Fredericksburg and Richmond. The custom home has spectacular water views from every room facing the water - four bedrooms, great room, rec room, sunroom, kitchen, and laundry room. The three floors include a walk-out basement and a second floor walk in attic that could be converted easily for additional bedrooms or office. There is a library/formal living room, dining room, 4.5 bathrooms, and his and her workshops/craft rooms. The attached garage and garden shed have ample room for cars and yard tools. Three outdoor living spaces - a screened porch, deck, and patio below the deck provide places to watch the world go by, bald eagles, formations of geese, the hummingbirds in summer, and the occasional sea planes practicing landings and take-offs. Across the river is marsh land that will never be developed. The 6.81 acres contain 300 feet on the Mattaponi River with a covered deepwater dock (8') with electric boat lift. You can boat to the Chesapeake Bay! To insure a comfortable low maintenance retreat with all the conveniences are a generator, two heat pumps, Hardiplank siding, composition shingle roof, and broadband fiber optic internet. Nestled in the center of eastern Virginia's rich pre-Revolutionary War history, King William County has homes inhabited from the 1700s and two Native American tribes that made treaties with the Royal government in the 1600s, still living on local reservations. The two rivers bordering the county provide entertainment on deep water to include boating, skiing, hunting, and fishing while the acres of wooded areas are havens for hunt clubs. Time to vacation where you live!
