Tucked within the heart of Historic Yorktown Village, this one-of-a-kind cottage blends colonial charm with modern comfort. Once the studio of renowned folk artist Nancy Thomas, the home carries a creative spirit and a rich sense of place. Just steps from Main Street and the York River waterfront, it offers a private, thoughtfully curated space, including a cozy master bedroom, cozy daybeds, and French doors that open to tranquil garden patios. It’s a truly private retreat & a rare gem.

The space
Charming One-Bedroom Cottage with Room for Four

The main bedroom features a plush queen bed, while two thoughtfully placed twin daybeds provide additional sleeping space—perfect for families or small groups of up to four guests.

Inside, you’ll find wood floors, vintage and nautical-inspired décor, local artists' works, sunlit spaces, and a massive barnwood trestle table for dining and playing evening boardgames with friends or family. French doors open to private garden patios with carefully placed rocking chairs and Adirondack chairs for a place to enjoy morning coffee or relaxing after a day of adventure.

Whether you're exploring the historic battlefields, strolling along the York River, or simply unwinding in your own private haven, this cottage is a delightful blend of colonial charm and modern ease.
