Sunkissed Shores invites you to experience waterfront living at its finest. This expansive four‑bedroom, four‑and‑a‑half‑bathroom retreat sits directly on Chincoteague Bay, offering sweeping water views and unforgettable sunsets from every room. Each bedroom features its own private balcony and ensuite bath, including two king suites on separate levels for added privacy. A cheerful bunkroom provides flexible sleeping for families and groups, and thoughtful touches like two pack ’n plays and a highchair make traveling with little ones effortless.

The heart of the home is the stunning great room, where soaring ceilings and dramatic walls of windows bring the bay right inside. During cooler months, the seasonal fireplace transforms this space into a warm, inviting haven—perfect for watching winter sunsets or enjoying a quiet evening indoors. A fully equipped  kitchen—with generous counter space, quality cookware, and every gadget you could need—makes meal preparation and entertaining a pleasure. Just off the living area, an enclosed all‑weather gazebo opens to a large waterside deck, creating the perfect setting for crab feasts, morning coffee, or simply relaxing as the sky shifts from gold to pink each evening.

Upstairs, the game loft offers entertainment for all ages with a classic 1980s Space Invaders arcade machine, a commercial‑grade 4‑player arcade table with over 2,500 games, a 77" TV, board games, a chess/checkers table, and a giant wall‑mounted Connect 4. A queen sleeper sofa provides additional space for guests, and each upstairs bedroom sits in its own private wing for a peaceful retreat.

Step outside to your private pier, where you can fish, crab, or launch kayaks directly into the bay. The bulkheaded shoreline offers easy access to the water, and the eastern side of the property provides serene sunrise views over the marsh—giving you the rare opportunity to enjoy both sunrise and sunset from the same home. With unmatched views, thoughtful amenities, and room for everyone to unwind, Sunkissed Shores stands apart as a place where memories are made and every day ends with a sunset worth savoring.

Tranquility meets you at every turn at Cedar Cove, a custom-built waterfront home nestled amongst the pines in the Oyster Bay I community. The open floor plan allows for a bright and airy atmosphere in the common areas downstairs - an open living room with a gas fireplace to warm a chilly evening, and a bright and cheery fully-equipped kitchen. The primary bedroom is also found on the ground floor, with a queen bed and bath, flat-screen television, and private balcony overlooking the backyard and waterfront view. The bathroom also has an entrance from the entrance hall of the house, allowing it to act as a bathroom for guests downstairs as well. Upstairs you'll find a game loft complete with a foosball table, a futon, and plenty of board games to keep the kids busy on a rainy day. Two additional bedrooms are also upstairs, one with two full size beds and another with a queen size bed - both have televisions and balconies as well. A newly-remodeled full bath is also located upstairs off the loft area as well. Outside you'll find ample space for plenty of outdoor enjoyment with the family - a spacious deck with outdoor seating and dining areas, a firepit with comfortable Adirondack chairs, and an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand after a long day at the beach. Located in a quiet private community just off the "beaten path" - all the amenities Chincoteague has to offer are just minutes away on the bike or in the car. Bring your kayaks and launch right from the small dock located on the property, or grab a pack of chicken necks at the grocery store and catch a few crabs - round out the meal with a sack of oysters from Gary Howard's market just up the street (if all else fails he sells crabs at a reasonable price too). Then take the time to gather with family on the porch to enjoy the bounty the island has to offer - all from the comfort of Cedar Cove here on Chincoteague Island.
