The best of both worlds — bay views at your doorstep and the ocean just seven houses away — this lovingly maintained, updated four-bedroom, 1.5-bath cottage delivers a rare north-end Long Beach Island lifestyle opportunity. Located just one home off the bay, enjoy expansive water views, short beach walks, and unmatched walkability to Harvey Cedars’ favorite shops and dining. Start your mornings with coffee from Birdy’s Café, grab lunch from Neptune Market for a midday beach break, or enjoy dinner at local favorites including Azzurri, Black Eyed Susan’s, and Harvey Cedars Shellfish — all just steps from your front door. After a day at the beach, return home to unwind on the front deck and take in breathtaking, unobstructed sunsets over the bay — an everyday luxury that defines this exceptional setting. Situated on a 5,000-square-foot 50×100 lot, the property offers outstanding proximity to both the bay and the ocean, creating rare versatility. Whether you envision a charming beach retreat, a high-performing investment property, or the ideal site to build new, opportunities that combine views, location, and lot size like this are increasingly scarce on Long Beach Island — and not expected to last.
