The Onancock Chronicles the Eastern shore

Tony - for a guy who doesn't yet live here full time - you do get around.....................

You have to remember we've been coming down since 2005 so we've made a number of friends (easy to do down there).

I found out that due to its proximity to wetlands, it would have been a long battle to get the permits to put an extension on the existing house and add the dock and garage I have always wanted. So the search continues today.

It's a pain all over. To put in a dock here I had to apply to the Town, the Division of Marine Resources, the Army Corp of Engineers and TWO Indian Tribes. The Crop rejected my the first time, asking why I didn't want to have my boat in a Marina? My response was "If I wanted my boat in a Marina, why would I buy land on the water?" They eventually relented and approved my permit.

Heading back to the "Jungle" tomorrow. Might have found another property with everything already in place. Should know in a day or so. Stopped by and hung out with Larry and Max for a bit on the way back to the hotel.

..... shutting down and hitting the road.

Ok ........ add me to list. I'll be retiring to Pungoteague, VA . Hopefully in 2 or 3 years. Found a home about a 15 minute drive south of Onancock. Put the last piece of the puzzle together today. Closing will take place next week as early as Tuesday. Was able to check off about 90% of the items on my must have list. More important, I was able to check off every one of the warden's items. Had to be a ranch, needed some neighbors nearby. Needed to be close to restaurants, shopping, and medical. And number one on the list for her, everything had to be complete and in place. Its good to go for me with a dock, two boat lifts and an additional boat garage 30' x 36'.

NICE!!
Don't expect the exact details but what is the ballpark $$$ of a place like that there?
Over $300K? Over $400K? Just rough range....
