Description
Come enjoy this historic home and estate. The views are spectacular and will take your breath away! The property features a historic home, secluded privacy on over 11 acres of waterfront, mature trees and stunning views of the river.The home is old and has all of the interesting nuances of a historic home that has been added onto over the years. Despite this, all major appliances, utilities, HVAC and equipment have been recently replaced and the house gets regular updates each spring and fall. The property itself sits atop a steep bank over the river which is part of the reason why the views are so stunning. At the base of the bank and directly adjacent to the property is a small public boat launch and a sandbar. At the other end of the property where the grade is more gentle you will find the boat slips, small boat shed and a sandy walk in for launching the smaller boats.When you’re here, it’s easy to forget the rest of the world. The house has been in our family for 5 generations. Before that it was home to a local waterman who worked the bay harvesting oysters and crabs. Earlier still, before the house stood, the land was a frequent fall gathering spot for local tribes who used the bluff to roast oysters. Arrowheads and pottery are still found from time to time in the fields.The covered pier is provided for guests who would like to bring their own boat. If you don’t have your own boat feel free to use one of our kayaks, sunfish or canoe. Fishing is good and many guests have good luck directly off the pier. Others choose to paddle out to nearby Sharkstooth Island and fish along the way. Please note, the pier and boathouse are at water level while the house sits atop a small bluff. As such, guests with health issues which make inclined paths difficult may prefer to walk or drive to the public pier on the other side of the property.2015 was the first year we have offered the property to the public and the response has been overwhelming. Currioman Landings is a very special place to us, we are sure that you will enjoy it as much as we do. Since 2015 we have been continually improving the property to ensure that not only do you have a pleasant experience but that every time you come back there is something new to see and enjoy.For years this has been a sleepy part of the world, home to farmers, watermen and few others. Making our home available to the public is a part of our family’s mission for rural preservation. We believe that history and open spaces are critical and that they must be preserved and enjoyed by all. For that reason 100% of all rental income is invested for preservation of the property and the protection of local farm lands from development.Come sit on the swing, look out over the river and get back to the things that matter most.We hope that you will visit Currioman and enjoy it as much as we do.
