Property Description

Located at the confluence of the Rappahannock River and the Chesapeake Bay, this exquisite modern home in White Stone, Virginia evokes the ideals of life on Virginia’s Northern Neck.

Completed in 2010 by award-winning residential architecture firm Randall Kipp Architecture and acclaimed custom home builders The Allen Group, this sophisticated coastal retreat seamlessly blends sophisticated site engineering with refined minimalism to create a waterfront home that is both enduring and serene.

Engineered to withstand tidal events, the home’s elevated foundation rises eight feet above the floodplain — the ground level, constructed with robust core-filled and reinforced concrete block, while the upper level is wrapped in smooth white stucco. A riprap-wrapped plinth mimics a seawall, offering both structural protection and aesthetic appeal. The flat roof, topped with a white membrane and outfitted with discreet solar collectors, underscores the home’s sustainable, low-maintenance ethos.

The heart of the home — a custom-designed kitchen — features sleek German-manufactured Bulthaup cabinetry and a generous island that serves as the informal dining space, emphasizing the home’s flowing, multifunctional design. Hidden appliances, hardware, and quartz countertops keep the look crisp and uninterrupted, while thoughtfully placed art niches add quiet sophistication.

Perched above the Chesapeake Bay’s tranquil shoreline, this striking custom home evokes the ideals of waterfront living in one of the Mid-Atlantic’s most cherished destinations.
