About This Home
The Grace Ames House, a beautifully restored 1927 kit home, sits on its own peninsula with water on 3 sides. Just a short walk to the heart of Onancock.

Enjoy outdoor living from the second story balcony, expansive back deck or welcoming front porch each with a different but equally beautiful view to enjoy. Interior features include rift-sawn white oak floors, custom cabinetry, soapstone counters, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, and fully tiled baths with zero-threshold showers. A matching studio offers flexible space for guests or work. Immaculate, elegant, and move-in ready in one of the Eastern Shore's most charming waterfront towns.
