Property Description
Welcome to Fortescue Beach, a hidden gem tucked along the Delaware Bay where life moves slower and sunsets steal the show. This charming bayshore cottage was completely rehabbed in 2022-from the roof down- offering peace of mind and modern comfort while preserving its coastal character. Thoughtfully updated and offered with select furnishings, this home is truly turnkey-ideal as a weekend escape, personal retreat, or income-producing short-term rental. Just unpack and start enjoying. Walk to the beach and marina, spend your days fishing, crabbing, boating, or simply soaking in the bay breeze-and best of all, skip the shore traffic entirely. If you've been dreaming of a place where mornings are quiet, neighbors wave, and evenings end with breathtaking bay sunsets, this is it. Fortescue isn't just a destination-it's a lifestyle. Nothing to do here but arrive... and stay awhile. *Shed being removed prior to closing. ***Best and final due Monday 3/2/26 at 6:00pm.
