    What's special

    Street view is 15 years old and does not reflect this home as it stands today. Best property on the Island! Always quiet, views of the bay without the summer visitors. This property has a double lot with a completely fenced in yard on one side and a paper street on the other which will never be built on. Gas is coming in January 2022 along with the sewer. Awesome breezes from your tree swing! Sunrises and Sunsets from this property can't be beaten. This is an Island of golf carts. Several outstanding local restaurants. The best feature is the porch. So relaxing and warm with one of two fireplaces. This home has been home to several ship captains. Gandy of Gandys Beach and Edward Riggin of the J&E Riggin Schooner now housed in New England. The Riggin is the sister ship to the Merwald housed in Port Norris. History abounds in this area so if your a history buff like us this is the place for you! Zestimate is off by over $100,000 according to the comps.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
