    What's special

    Ample parkingPremier beach-block cornerRefined coastal aestheticPanoramic ocean viewsWell-proportioned bedroomsOutdoor showerHardwood flooring
    Perfectly positioned on a premier beach-block corner just steps from the beach, 2988 Avalon Avenue offers an exceptional setting. The boardwalk and Surfside Park are all that separate you from the beach—opening up panoramic views and a rare sense of space that cannot be recreated. Corner exposure creates natural view corridors, flooding the home with natural light while enhancing both ocean views and overall presence—an advantage consistently reserved for the most coveted positions. This home sits on one of the highest points on the island. Inside, the home blends the timeless charm of a classic upside-down Avalon beach house with a light, airy, and thoughtfully modern flare. Sunlit living spaces, hardwood flooring, and a refined coastal aesthetic define the interior, while a third-floor retreat offers a true lighthouse lookout—elevated, private, and quietly exceptional. The open layout is both inviting and functional. The main living area flows effortlessly into the kitchen and dining spaces and is enhanced by the home’s natural light. Well-proportioned bedrooms and a first-floor laundry room with side entry allows for an easy return from the beach, designed with the rhythm of coastal living in mind, transitioning from beachside to relaxed indoor comfort. Step outside to expansive decks that are oriented to capture the panoramic ocean views and coastal breezes. Additional exterior features include ample parking, an outdoor shower and dedicated storage for your bikes and beach gear to further enhance convenience and ease. Aerial perspectives highlight what sets this property apart: its rare combination of immediate beach proximity, and corner lot openness deliver a living experience that rivals many oceanfront properties. Along with effortless access to the beach, stunning views of morning sunrises and moonlit nights can be enjoyed from your decks. A short stroll to Avalon’s finest dining, boutiques, and everyday conveniences complete the experience. The Avalon fishing pier is just moments away, adding to the character and charm of this highly sought-after location. Equally suited as a refined summer residence, a high-performing rental investment, or the foundation for a future legacy home, the true value here is unmistakable—driven by a location that stands apart even among Avalon’s most desirable offerings. Call today for a private showing.
