About This Home

As of October 2023

Just one-off the oceanfront, this classic beach cottage is positioned on a large lot in a private gated North Bethany community with lifeguards. This beautiful beach retreat is full of coastal charm and features a wide open great room with wood beamed ceiling, gas fireplace, and floor to ceiling windows which allow for ample natural lighting. There is a spacious deck just off the great room where you can enjoy peeks of the ocean while listening to the waves crash on the shore. Downstairs there are 4 sizeable bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, each updated with tile showers, new vanities, and tile flooring. Enjoy this home as is or build your dream beach home and take advantage of incredible views of the ocean from a higher vantage point in this coveted location. The private, gated community of Ocean Village has been recognized for their exceptionally wide dune and beaches. Positioned on a corner lot adjacent to the dune crossover, this home is just steps to the beach and a short walk to downtown Bethany, making this is the perfect location for all of your future vacations.
