This West Ocean City waterfront home is all about the setting. The views, the boating access, and the location come together in a way that is hard to find. From multiple levels of the home, you can take in water views with sightlines toward the inlet, Assateague, and the Ocean City skyline. Custom built in 2003, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, an open kitchen and living area with a wall of glass facing the water, generous bedroom spaces, two fireplaces, and an elevator serving every level, including the rooftop deck. The main living area is comfortable and easy to enjoy, with the kitchen, dining, and living spaces all centered around the view. The primary suite has its own fireplace, great natural light, water views, a custom bathroom, and an additional walk-in dressing room/closet. Outdoor space is a major part of the property, with five separate seating areas including covered and uncovered balconies, a waterside deck, and a rooftop deck. For boating, the property includes two boat slips with lifts, one set up for Jet-Skis and the other a boat, giving you direct access to the surrounding waterways. You are also close to restaurants, marinas, beaches, shopping, entertainment, and everything that makes West Ocean City such a convenient coastal location. If you are looking for a waterfront home with views, usable outdoor space, boating access, and a true West Ocean City location, this one is worth a closer look.
