This offering is a one-acre-plus waterfront parcel with substantial water frontage, including 100'+ on the Machodoc Creek and approximately 350'+/- on a tidal pond. The property is being presented with existing improvements conveying “as is,” including a singlewide/mobile home and certain waterfront structures and utilities. Conveyed in “as is” condition are the boathouse and pier on the tidal pond, as well as the well and septic. The property remarks also indicate the ability to design and install a deep-water pier on the Machodoc Creek with a stated 6'+ MLW design reference.

The site is located in Montross, Virginia in Westmoreland County. According to the seller’s remarks, the property sits about 2.5 miles from the Potomac River via the Machodoc Creek, and the lower Machodoc River is noted as offering deep water.

The parcel may appeal to buyers looking for waterfront build-out opportunities, particularly where grandfathering is relevant due to the existing singlewide/mobile home and the stated reference to development between 50' and 100' RPA. The remarks also note that a public sewer connection is an option for future development or use. With both creek and tidal pond frontage, the site can support plans that incorporate on-water access and waterfront living or recreational uses, subject to applicable approvals.
