Northern Neck Real Estate and
Chesapeake Bay Waterfront
Northern Neck Real Estate is Virginia's finest waterfront property.
Located on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay with the Potomac
River to the north and the Rappahannock River to the south the Northern
Neck is surrounded by water. The Northern Neck attracts buyers as it is
rich in scenic beauty and contains 1100 miles of waterfront.
History is rich in the Northern Neck when the
first European, John Smith, was bought up the Rappahannock River in the
winter of 1607-08 as a prisoner of the Powhatan Indians. Ever here of
Pocahontas? The birthplace of our first president, George Washington,
and many signors of the Declaration of Independence.
Small farms, vineyards and wineries are
interspersed with retirement communities and rural businesses that share
the land of the Northern Neck today with quaint historic towns and
fishing villages.
Ken Smith is one
of the Northern Neck's premier award-winning realtors. His knowledge of
both the land and water is unsurpassed. He is current on local and state
issues concerning the Chesapeake Bay and has represented Virginia's
commercial watermen before the Marine Resource Commission and the General Assembly. He
was recently appointed by the Secretary of Natural Resources to the
Stakeholders Advisory Group to help in implementing a plan that will
meet the goals set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency for a
clean and healthy Bay.
An advocate for the Chesapeake Bay he sits on
various committees. Including Senator Richard Stuart's Chesapeake Bay
Task Force and Congressman Rob Wittman's 1st District Environmental
Advisory Council. Ken has helped rally the troops in his ever persistent
pursuit for a clean and healthy Chesapeake Bay.
