This is us, sneaking away after the madness of the holidays to get some quiet time on Winter Harbor in Mathews, a tiny and very quaint town on the Middle Peninsula of Virginia. Bert discovered a sweet spot of land here three years ago. We wanted to build but the entire peninsula is essentially wetlands and it is expensive and potentially damaging to do so.
The next best thing? Finding a 100+ year old farmhouse on the water that has been lovingly restored. Who needs to build when you can find a piece of beauty like this?! We found it, bid on it, and closed in only four weeks.
The call of the waterfowl, the rush of the lapping tide, the color of the setting sun… we have found our new peace at Morningside.
