    What's special

    On Fenwick Island, south of Fenwick Island State Park, and on the ocean side, sits the ocean-block property at 5 E. Essex Street. Just four lots in from the beach, this cinder-block bungalow is being sold as part of an estate. Originally constructed by hand, it's been a wonderful get-away and can now be yours! The location is in the heart of Fenwick Island, within walking distance of restaurants and shopping, and of course, the beach. This is being sold to settle an estate. Buyer responsible for any required impact fees.
