This four-bedroom coastal cottage offers timeless tradition and modern livability, tucked on a dead end just two blocks to the beach. A broad front rocking chair porch sets the tone, while painted cedar clapboard siding stands up beautifully to the sea air. Inside, the open living and dining areas connect to a galley kitchen with a pass-through. White board walls, weathered wainscoting, and painted wood floors add authentic shore charm. With one bedroom on the first floor and three upstairs, plus an outdoor shower, this home is designed for easy, breezy beach living whether as a year-round residence or a summer retreat. Year round, summer or investment. Truly one of a kind, true coastal cottage. Owner is a NJ licensed Realtor.
