Opportunity takes center stage at 485 Around the Fence Road in Cobbs Creek. Set on approximately one acre, this two-bedroom, one-bath cottage is ready for an experienced investor, contractor or builder with the vision to unlock the property’s next chapter. The existing home requires substantial renovation, creating a true value-add project for buyers who prefer to control the scope, finishes and final product from the ground up. Its compact footprint and straightforward single-level layout provide a practical starting point for a full rehabilitation, potential rental property or resale project. For buyers whose plans extend beyond renovation, the homesite may also warrant evaluation for replacement construction or a new residential design, subject to county zoning, permitting, soil and other applicable approvals. The existing well and septic systems are reported to be in good condition, offering important infrastructure already in place and a meaningful head start when evaluating the property’s potential. Outside, the one-acre setting combines open ground with a wooded perimeter, providing privacy, usable yard space and room to rethink how the site functions. Mature trees frame the property, while the broad clearing offers flexibility for outdoor living, gardens, parking, storage or construction staging. The current cottage features vinyl siding, a metal roof, two bedrooms, one full bath, a kitchen, living space and a rear entry area. Investors can approach the property as a complete renovation, while builders may see value in the land, existing utility systems and established residential use. No matter the strategy, this is not a cosmetic project, it is an opportunity for a capable buyer to create value through planning, construction and execution. Bring your contractor, review the site and determine the best path forward for this one-acre Cobbs Creek property.

Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and reached by a long, private gravel drive, this renovated home sits on 2.62 secluded acres that remain completely hidden from the road. The setting feels like your own private compound peaceful and screened by mature trees yet you’re just a minute from Put-In Creek and the East River, with easy access to Mobjack Bay and the Chesapeake without the flood-insurance requirement. Inside, the home is fresh, bright, and move-in ready. Gleaming hardwoods flow through the main living areas, bedrooms feature soft new carpet, and a full coat of paint gives everything a clean, inviting feel. The kitchen is the showpiece, finished with stylish new cabinets, high-end granite, and quality appliances ready for cooking and entertaining. Updated baths complete the refreshed interior. Practical details buyers appreciate immediately: a newer 50-year roof with gutters, a Generac generator for reliable backup power, and a two-car garage. Above the garage is a private fourth bedroom with new flooring and its own half bath ~ perfect as a guest suite, home office, or quiet retreat. Out back, a large deck overlooks mature landscaping and offers a private spot to sit, grill, or gather while the trees provide real seclusion. Historic Mathews (founded 1791) still delivers the slower, water-oriented lifestyle people seek here ~ shipbuilding roots, Chesapeake closeness, and a small-town rhythm that remains intact. Rare acreage and genuine privacy just moments from the water, move-in ready, and no flood insurance required. This is the kind of property that doesn’t come along often in East River Estates. Seller offers a one-year home warranty with the purchase.
