A true waterfront escape on the public side of Lake Anna. This is the kind of place that instantly slows you down and pulls you in. Thoughtfully cared for and full of charm, every detail of this property feels intentional, warm, and ready to be enjoyed. Set on 2.1 acres with mature landscaping and a naturally private feel, the setting is peaceful and tucked away, yet still incredibly convenient.
