Buying a home in the Cape Charles historic district

Cape Charles’ historic district is a compact area mostly populated with homes built at the turn of the century. This is one of the more sought-after parts of Cape Charles for buyers thanks to its charm and walkability — residents can enjoy easy pedestrian access to the beach, Central Park, and downtown from anywhere in the historic district. The area is increasingly popular with second homeowners who may rent out their properties to vacation renters for extra income when they’re not staying there themselves. Homes range from tiny bungalows to sprawling Victorians to duplexes, offering a range of sizes for different types of buyers.
