    What's special

    Breathtaking bay views
    Rare 2.4-acre waterfront development opportunity on Sandusky Bay in the heart of Ohio's Vacationland! This exceptional property offers a unique chance to complete a premier waterfront community while enjoying breathtaking bay views and outstanding investment potential. The seller successfully completed Phase I, where all single-family homes and lots have been sold, creating a proven foundation for future development. The remaining 2.4-acre parcel presents an exciting opportunity for the next phase, making it one of the few remaining waterfront development sites in the area. Zoned R-C (Resort Commercial), the property allows for single-family residential and, with a Special Use Permit, offers the potential for multi-family residences, hotels, vacation lodging, and numerous other permitted uses. This flexibility makes it ideal for developers looking to capitalize on the growing demand for waterfront living and vacation accommodations along Lake Erie's shoreline. The property is fully served by public water, public sewer, electric, natural gas, and cable, reducing development costs and streamlining the building process. Marina boat slips are available for purchase, adding tremendous appeal for boating enthusiasts and future residents. Located just minutes from Cedar Point, Marblehead, Kelly's Island, Put-in-Bay, Port Clinton, and other Lake Erie attractions, this property offers easy access to some of Ohio's most sought-after recreational destinations. Whether envisioned as luxury condominiums, townhomes, waterfront residences, or a boutique hospitality development (subject to approvals), this property is positioned to become a premier destination on Sandusky Bay. Additional flexibility allows the property to join The Cove on the Bay Homeowners Association or remain an independent development. Convenient road access from S. Danbury Road provides excellent accessibility for residents and visitors alike. This is more than just land?it's a rare opportunity to build the next chapter of an established waterfront community in one of Ohio's fastest-growing vacation destinations. Bring your vision and transform this exceptional waterfront property into a landmark development.
