About This Home
As of June 2025Nestled in Ocean City’s sought-after Southend, this beautifully upgraded beachside retreat is just five houses from the shore. Wake up to the sound of the waves and prepare breakfast in the renovated chef’s kitchen (2021), featuring a spacious center island, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, built-in wine and beverage cooler, and all-new appliances. Natural light fills the open living space, accentuated by crown molding and chair rails. A stunning fireplace with a custom surround is flanked by custom built-in cabinetry, adding both warmth and character. At day’s end, retreat to the rear bedrooms, where bay views and breathtaking sunsets create a serene escape. Fully renovated bathrooms (2022) and a new heater and A/C system ensure year-round comfort. Outside, enjoy ocean breezes from the covered wrap-around front porch, where you’ll catch a peek of the ocean, or rinse off in the enclosed outdoor shower after a day at the beach. The extra-deep garage and multiple storage areas, including a private owner’s closet, provide ample space for all your shore essentials. With Uncle Bill’s Pancake House and Aunt Betty’s Ice Cream just across the street, this is coastal living at its finest—where every day feels like a getaway.
