About This Home
As of June 2025Oceanfront coastal cottage with expansive views of the coastline and access to a life-guarded beach, only steps from your deck! This home is full of seaside charm with soaring, exposed-beam wood ceilings and wide plank wood walls, painted a crisp white. The wide open floor plan offers an abundance of space for family and friends to gather. The expansive great room with stunning ocean views spills onto an oversized beachfront deck. Featuring 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, this home has two additional areas to gather, especially on a rainy day at the beach. The loft is the perfect spot for kids on the top floor, and on the ground level, there is a separate game area with a ping pong table and large screen TV. The over-sized garage provides added parking and together with a second smaller garage, there is ample storage space for bikes and all your beach necessities. Automatic storm shutters on the East side of the home provide added security and peace of mind when you are away. Offered fully furnished, this property is ready to be enjoyed or would be an exceptional investment property with a strong rental history. Located in South Bethany, well known for its beautifully wide, uncrowded beach, and just a short drive to downtown Bethany with shops, restaurants, and a boardwalk.
