8419 Shooting Point Dr, Machipongo, VA 23405

Why this home stands out

Thirteen-plus acres on Virginia's Eastern Shore is a rare thing. At 8419 Shooting Point Drive, you get a 2015-built home with room to breathe in every direction — space for gardens, outbuildings, animals, or simply the kind of quiet that only comes when your nearest neighbor is a good walk away. The combination of newer construction and serious acreage at this latitude is the property's defining advantage.

ALL OTHERS AREA 53 and the Machipongo real estate market

Machipongo sits in Northampton County on Virginia's Eastern Shore — a narrow peninsula flanked by the Chesapeake Bay to the west and the Atlantic barrier islands to the east. Life here moves at a pace that feels intentional. The area known locally as All Others Area 53 is a patchwork of agricultural land, woodland, and water-facing properties spread across the lower Shore. Machipongo itself is a small community with deep roots in the region's farming and fishing heritage, and that character shows in the landscape: wide fields, tall pines, and long views that remind you how much sky there actually is. The town of Cape Charles, with its restored Victorian streetscape and active waterfront, is a short drive south and serves as the social and commercial hub for the lower Shore.

What's nearby

Cape Charles is the closest town with real amenities — the Cape Charles Coffee shop, a handful of restaurants along Mason Avenue, and the Cape Charles Harbor are all within easy reach. The Virginia Coast Reserve and Kiptopeke State Park put world-class birding and kayaking practically at your doorstep. For everyday errands, the Food Lion in Cape Charles handles groceries, and the Northampton County seat in Eastville is a short drive north. The Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel connects the Shore to Virginia Beach and the broader Hampton Roads metro in about an hour.
