Held within the same family for more than 100 years, this remarkable property captures the essence of Virginia's Middle Peninsula with a setting that is both peaceful and breathtaking. As you travel down the private lane, stretching nearly a mile through open fields and towering woods, the landscape unfolds into something truly extraordinary. The property leads to the original homesite overlooking Cakes Creek, North River, and Mobjack Bay. Though the original late-1800s home was lost to a fire in 2023, the homesite still offers a timeless setting and incredible opportunity for a new waterfront retreat. A small cottage believed to date back to the 1950s remains on the property and may offer restoration potential for the right vision. With approximately 65 acres in timber and 35 acres of open fields and cropland, the land is as versatile as it is beautiful. Over 3,200 feet of waterfrontage, including sandy shoreline, a protected cove, private peninsula, and existing dock location, create a setting rarely found along the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Zoned Agricultural and Rural, the property offers endless possibilities including a private estate, family compound, equestrian property, hunting retreat, working farm, or future subdivision potential. Wildlife is abundant, and the farming and fishing opportunities are exceptional. Currently has electric running to homesite and newer well pump. ## Location - **Address:** 1439 N River Road, Bohannon, VA 23056 - **County:** Mathews - **Coordinates:** 37.387963, -76.382336 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=37.387963,-76.382336 ## Virtual Tour & Media - **Video Tour:** https://1drv.ms/v/c/456dc3de98ad1b99/IQBpLJXsRzHIQa0RSA98c81nAROxpigHdgVyA26X3x4y8n0?e=xB98tg ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Megan Dickerson - **Brokerage:** Keller Williams Fairfax Gateway - **Broker Phone:** 7032223300 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/1439-N-River-Rd_Bohannon_VA_23021_M92103-25516?f=listhub&s=NYSMLS&m=11922477&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![1439 N River Road - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f2415116848r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f3517014897r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f4030057148r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f1229621801r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f4269708950r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f3832858927r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f2824278648r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f2824278648r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f3888060188r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f2189794931r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f2561868458r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f1345006791r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f4119434861r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f395894913r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f3292430297r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f1752400558r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f2324226353r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f1766736698r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f4150388953r.jpg) ![1439 N River Road - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/732b4c7387f6a04d11ee81062577c032l-f2444013143r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 11922477 | **Updated:** 2026-10-23 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 My State MLS.
