Buyer tip: on the water, the pier and shoreline matter as much as the house. Ask for the pier and bulkhead or riprap condition, the water depth at low tide, any Critical Area or permit history, flood zone and insurance quotes, and whether the home is on public water and sewer or a private well and septic system.

James’s take
Long Point is a secluded neighborhood with great water access on both sides of the peninsula. There are several community water-access points, including a boat ramp, plus a community hall that can be rented for events. That variety of ways to enjoy the water is what stands out to me.
The fishing and crabbing around Sillery Bay are part of the appeal for me, too. In the warmer months, I launch my boat and crab with traps and trotlines without having to go far. There are some great white perch spots, and even striped bass if you are lucky.
