Classic coastal charm meets opportunity in Surf City. Situated on a desirable 50 x 100 corner lot just two blocks east to the beach and two blocks west to the Surf City Yacht Club, this 1936 cottage has been lovingly enjoyed by the same family for three generations. A welcoming enclosed front porch and original hardwood flooring in the living room capture the home's timeless character. The spacious rear deck enjoys afternoon sun providing an inviting setting for relaxing after a day at the beach and dining outdoors. New roof installed in 2022 is a notable update. A large detached garage added in 1994 provides ample storage. Shops, restaurants, and mini golf are all within walking distance. Bring your vision to update this classic cottage or explore designing and building a new home, subject to applicable approvals. A charming property with possibilities in a convenient Surf City location. Being sold As Is.
