13485 WHARTON DR, HALLWOOD, Accomack

Wharton Place, circa 1805, has long been regarded as one of the finest period homes on the Eastern Shore of VA. With 100.4 acres (+/-) and nearly 2,500 ft of Assawoman Creek frontage, its views extend to Wallops Island and the Atlantic Ocean. There are approximately 59 acres of farmland, 20 acres of woods, and 12 acres of tidal marsh, with the remaining acreage being lawn and gardens. Placement under a conservation easement in 2006 with VESLT reflected not only its place in history, but also protected its future. While significant restorations have taken place since the 1940s, most recently with Williamsburg-based architecture and paint specialists, modernizations have been made to accommodate 21st century living. This property is well suited for architecture and outdoor enthusiasts.
