Big News: Our New “Move Here” Page & Home Search Tool Is Live!

If you’ve been dreaming about life along the Chesapeake Bay, there’s never been a better time to start your search. We’re excited to announce a brand-new addition to DownByTheBayinVA.com — the “Move Here” page! This new section is designed to make finding your perfect home in the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula of Virginia easier (and more fun!) than ever before.

Why We Built It

For years, people have reached out asking about the best neighborhoods, waterfront properties, and hidden gems in our region. Until now, you’d have to bounce between different sites and listings to piece it all together. Our new Move Here page changes that — it puts all the tools and local insight you need in one place.

Search Smarter, Not Harder

The highlight of the page is our integrated home search tool. You can now:

• Browse homes directly within the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula

• Filter by price, size, waterfront access, and more

• See results that update in real-time — no more outdated listings

• Save and share your favorite finds with just a click

We’ve preloaded the search with local-focused filters so you’re not sifting through homes far outside the area you’re interested in.

A Local’s Touch

Unlike national listing sites, our search is built with a local perspective. Living here means knowing which creeks have the best boating depth, which roads stay quiet in the summer, and where you’ll find the best sunset views. You won’t just find homes — you’ll get context on the lifestyle each area offers.

Ready to Explore?

Head over to our new Move Here page and start searching today. Whether you’re looking for a weekend getaway, a forever home, or a place to retire, you’ll find it here — with the local insight you won’t get anywhere else.
