Classic Cape Cod in Prime Surf City Location Located on one of Surf City’s widest and most desirable streets, this classic Cape Cod is perfectly positioned in a walkable, central location—just a short stroll to the bay beach and 12th Street’s handicap-accessible beach entrance with both a ramp and walk-up path. Pride of ownership is evident throughout this charming 4-bedroom, 2-bath home, enjoyed by its current owners for the past 35 years. While never a rental under their care, the home had a rental history with previous owners—making it an excellent potential investment property. The open living room and efficient kitchen flow into a cozy family room with a wood stove, perfect for cool fall and winter evenings. A recently installed mini split system provides efficient heating and cooling year-round. Step outside to a spacious back deck—complete with a gas line for your grill—ideal for entertaining or relaxing after a day at the beach. The fenced backyard also offers room for a pool, lounge chairs, and fire pit, with natural landscaping and a front patio for additional outdoor enjoyment. The first floor includes two modestly sized bedrooms and a beautifully renovated full bath with tub. Upstairs, you'll find two oversized bedrooms and a second fully updated bathroom with shower. Additional features include off-street parking and a storage shed perfect for beach gear and bikes. Selling in As Is condition.
