Charming Coastal Retreat with Flexible Multifamily Living. Welcome to your perfect slice of beach town living. Ideally located just one block from the bay and three short blocks from the ocean, this delightful coastal home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy both sunrise beach walks and breathtaking bay sunsets without ever needing your car. With peek a boo bay views and mature landscaping that includes a beautiful crepe myrtle and two fig trees, the setting is as inviting as the home itself. The main living level is located upstairs, designed to capture light and coastal breezes. Bamboo hardwood flooring flows throughout the bright open floor plan, creating a warm yet airy atmosphere. The living room features a cozy gas fireplace and modern ceiling fan, along with a unique swiveling TV stand that allows you to enjoy television viewing from multiple areas of the open living space. Double atrium doors lead to an expansive balcony, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The kitchen blends style and function with stainless steel appliances, a gas stove with grill plate, built in pantry cabinet, and a large stainless steel island ideal for gathering. Recessed lighting enhances the space, while the dining area is highlighted by a stunning Capiz shell chandelier. Casement windows open fully to welcome refreshing ocean breezes, reinforcing the relaxed coastal lifestyle. This level also includes a spacious bathroom with tub shower combination, a generous primary bedroom with three closets, and a second bedroom across the hall featuring two closets, offering comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Designed with versatility in mind, the home offers a separate lower level living space with its own exterior entrance. Downstairs you will find a living room, kitchen, full bath, bedroom, and a roomy laundry area. This flexible layout allows the property to function beautifully as a single family beach house or as a multifamily residence with a private guest suite, mother in law space, or income producing rental. A large two car garage provides ample storage for beach gear, bikes, and water toys. Major updates include Rinnai hot water heater, a gas furnace and roof replaced approximately five years ago, adding peace of mind. Located close to the bay, Ocean City Beach, and everything Ocean City has to offer, this exceptional property blends coastal charm, modern convenience, and flexible living in one remarkable opportunity.
