About This Home
Welcome to 289 King Carter Lane—an exceptional waterfront home with commanding views of the Rappahannock River and the opening of Carter Creek, home to the prestigious Tides Inn Resort. Enjoy breathtaking sunrises over the Chesapeake Bay, daily boat activity, and tranquil living—all just steps from your private pier with 3’ MLW and No flood zone.
This updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers substantial recent improvements, including fresh interior paint, refinished hardwood floors, a brand-new encapsulated crawl space, new ductwork and HVAC, new water heater, new washer and dryer, and much more. The main floor features a bright living room with a new gas fireplace and a formal dining room adjacent to the kitchen. A first-floor bedroom off the sunroom includes built-in shelving and gas logs—ideal as a cozy den or guest space. The sunroom itself is a showstopper, with brick floors and wraparound water views for enjoying morning coffee or evening cocktails. The cozy family room even offers water views and great storage.
