It's the kind of place buyers find when they want to be CLOSE to the wild side of the Shore · Chincoteague's ponies, the southern Assateague, and the marshes where waterfowl winter · but nowhere near the crowds.

Stockton's market is rural-residential and recreational · land, hunting cabins, and quiet retreats. Pricing reflects the remoteness.
