Hidden Potential on Carter’s Creek: A Rare Waterfront Offering in Weems, VA
What does it really mean to find a rare waterfront property?
It’s not just about location. It’s about orientation, craftsmanship, and the kind of setting that can’t be replicated. A place where the views are expansive, the lot is exceptional, and the home offers both character and opportunity.
That’s exactly what’s on offer at 82 Binnacle Lane in Weems—a classic all-brick waterfront home positioned on a 0.69-acre point lot with deep water access and sweeping 250-degree views of Carter’s Creek, with sightlines toward The Tides Inn.
Why This Property Stands Apart
Privately tucked away at the end of a quiet lane, the home is surrounded by water on nearly all sides, creating a sense of seclusion while remaining close to the heart of Weems. The quality of construction is immediately apparent, and the interior layout offers generously scaled rooms designed to take full advantage of the setting.
The main level features an expansive living room, formal dining room, and a light-filled creek room where windows frame the water from multiple angles. Just outside the creek room, a brick terrace extends the living space outdoors—an ideal spot for morning coffee, casual gatherings, or evening sunsets overlooking the point.
A dedicated office with built-in bookcases and a bay window provides a quiet workspace, and hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas, adding warmth and continuity.
A Rare Invitation to Personalize
The kitchen and baths retain their original character and offer a natural starting point for thoughtful updates. A walk-up attic provides additional flexibility, with the potential to create extra bedrooms, a guest suite, or another customized space to suit your needs.
Thoughtful updates already in place—including a newer roof, updated HVAC system, and a whole-house generator—offer peace of mind while allowing a future owner to focus on design and personalization. The walkout basement features a spacious rec room with wet bar and opens directly to the lower terrace and pool area, creating an easy flow for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining.
Along the shoreline, rip rap and a bulkhead are in good condition, and a dock is in place and ready for new decking.
