Description
This special property is located near shepherdstown along the quiet stretch of the potomac river, named big slackwater, above dam 4. the property's most outstanding feature is its spacious flat lawn along 655’ of private deep water river frontage, providing direct access to 12 miles of navigable, recreational water. the c & o canal national historic park/towpath, located directly across the river, provides 184 miles of trails along the potomac and protects your views from any development.
upon arrival, you are greeted by pastoral landscapes of rolling pastures (bring the horses!) and sweeping skies. continue following the wooded lane to the center on the property where a cozy campsite with small studio cottage and garage are nestled in the trees across from atv trails. as you approach the waterfront, another clearing to the left serves as the proposed homesite. the location sits atop a bluff overlooking the river and dock below. the tour culminates with the property’s most noteworthy feature — the expansive waterfront. a rare feature of bluff view property is a road to the riverfront; you can drive from the property entrance all the way down to the roughly 1 acre of completely flat lawn along the potomac. the bluff adds remarkable texture and serves as a backdrop to the lower riverfront portion of the property. thanks to a wide no-wake zone at the public boat ramp one mile upriver, this section of big slackwater is very quiet.
