A Rare Piece of Jersey Shore History for Sale

For the first time in nearly four decades, this historic seven-bedroom estate in the exclusive Gardens section is on the market. Just half a block from the beach, this 4,824 sq. ft. home blends timeless craftsmanship with modern luxury, making it a rare find in a sea of new construction.

📍 Price: $4,000,000
📍 Bedrooms: 7 | Bathrooms: 5.5
📍 Lot Size: 75’ x 130’ (double the average lot size)

Coastal Charm Meets Luxury Living

Beyond the grand covered front porch, the home welcomes you with:
Spacious dining room with original built-ins
Expansive living room, perfect for hosting family gatherings
Eat-in kitchen with a gas fireplace, Sub-Zero fridge, double wall ovens, and a cooktop
Finished walk-out basement with elevator access

The second and third floors feature six large bedrooms, while an 800 sq. ft. addition offers a full in-law suite with its own kitchen—ideal for guests or multi-generational living.

Prime Location & Exclusive Features

This rare double-lot property offers:
Mature trees, a deck, a paver patio, and a detached garage
A peaceful setting away from the boardwalk crowds while still being walkable to shops, dining, and entertainment
Close proximity to Ocean City Municipal Airport—a major draw for private jet owners seeking a Hamptons alternative

With the median Ocean City home price at $1.7M, this one-of-a-kind estate offers unmatched space, history, and luxury in a market where properties of this caliber are becoming increasingly rare.
