This home is located at 3336 Scimitar Way, in the
Captain’s Cove development near Greenbackville, VA. It sits
on a navigable salt-water canal that empties into the
beautiful Chincoteague Bay—the last virtually unpolluted
mid-Atlantic coastal bay. Greenbackville is on the state
line between Maryland and Virginia and is approximately 40
miles south of the beach resort of Ocean City, MD. Across
the Chincoteague Bay, within sight from the home’s deck,
windows and screened porch are Chincoteague and Assateague
Islands—home of the famous saltwater cowboys and wild
ponies.
