OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY 02/21/26 11AM-1PM. Welcome to this 3-bedroom, 1-bath Cape Cod set on an oversized approx. 105 x 100 lot in the Villas, just ½ mile from the Bay. Built in 1954 and lovingly held by the same family ever since, this home offers a unique blend of character, space, and opportunity. Passersby often commented on the charm of the covered front porch and well-kept flowerbeds. As you enter the home, youre welcomed into the living room featuring hardwood floors, a large picture window with display sill, and a red brick fireplace area that was converted to gas logs years ago (currently not functional and conveying as-is). The living room flows into the spacious dining room, also with hardwood floors, highlighted by a windowed alcove that fills the space with natural light. Beyond the dining room is the eat-in kitchen, updated in 2022 with new cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and updated flooring. The roof over this portion of the home was also replaced at that time. A door off the kitchen leads to a small rear deck with access to the backyard. Down the hall, youll find a large first-floor primary bedroom, a second bedroom, laundry closet, and an oversized full bath. This bathroom was formerly a standard full bath and may offer reconfiguration potential to expand the adjacent bedroom, providing additional layout flexibility. Upstairs features a third bedroom, a 27 long dormitory-style bonus room, and ample storage space. While the ceilings on the second floor are pitched, this level offers creative possibilities for future expansion or flexible use. The detached oversized garage and 4+ car parking are valuable features in this area. Buyers may wish to explore subdivision potential (with variance), subject to township approvals and buyer due diligence. This property presents an opportunity for end users, investors, or builders to renovate, reimagine, or potentially redevelop in a desirable shore community with long-term upside. This home has significant potential and conveys in as-is condition. Due to its current condition, the seller will not make repairs, which will likely impact certain financing options. Please review the attached Sellers Property Condition Disclosure prior to scheduling an appointment. Buyers are responsible for all due diligence, including zoning, lot size, square footage, room sizes, condition, and subdivision feasibility. No guarantees are made.
