Property Description

Your personal island paradise -- a mere 60 minutes from Williamsburg and Yorktown, 60-90 minutes from nearby Richmond, Norfolk, Newport News and Virginia Beach and just 3 hours from the DC-area. Escape to one of the most picturesque islands on the Chesapeake Bay and enjoy a brilliant light-filled home where nature, location, architecture and activities for all generations create an unparalleled offering year-round. Located on a spectacular 5.4 acre site on historic Gwynn’s Island on Virginia’s Middle Peninsula, this contemporary interpretation of historic Tidewater architecture and materials -- brick, stone, batten and copper roof – is graced by over 300 feet of limestone terrace and over 250 feet of floor-to-ceiling movable glass walls and doors. Gorgeous panoramic views of the water, a privileged “living shoreline” and surrounding nature and gardens blur the line between inside and out. A calm water sailing and boating haven; unobstructed evening star-gazing; and crab, fish and oysters living off your dock let you leave “the real” world behind when you arrive. Local restaurants, groceries and specialty markets and pickle-ball courts are minutes away on the mainland over the island’s 24-hour swing-bridge.

Famed Richmond architect, Charles Aquino, designed the house and his wife and collaborator Anna Aquino the fabulous gardens.

This stunning waterfront estate offers 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths across the main house and guest cottage and office. Onsite comforts and features including nearly one-level living and allow a carefree, luxurious, active lifestyle: an open porch with retractable screens, 360-degree walk-around terraces with flowing spaces for dining and lounging, a 40’ pool, grilling station, “HydroCourt” tennis court and screens, tree-house, kayak shed, 300-foot long boat dock, two protected sandy coves and lush year-round flowering grounds. The meticulous and artful landscape design integrates mesmerizing natural beauty with flora, mature trees, and garden sculptures to make the perfect complement to this remarkable home.

Private, expansive, serene and offering boundless pleasures, this custom-built home affords the exceptional oasis and the multi-generational, legacy lifestyle you have been looking for.
