Property Description
HERE'S YOUR CHANCE ! Having already compiled 85 years of LBI summer memories, this 1940 beach getaway is waiting for you to write the next chapter. Main house features 4 bedrooms, walk up attic/sleep loft, living room, dining room, kitchen, full bathroom and huge laundry room/possible den. Bonus guest cottage offers full kitchen, full bathroom, plus small living room, sleep area, and a fully insulated pull down attic. House has weathered all the great storms and is ready for some well earned TLC, but offers a fantastic value for anyone, at this price point! Property was a year round rental until recently, but current owner has never occupied property and makes no representations, as to its condition. Property passed the C/O (Certificate of Occupancy) inspection and owner will not be making any repairs and has priced the property for an "as is" sale, only. Each unit has a separate electric service/meter and the main house has a gas stove, dryer, water heater, and wall heater. Expanding the current structure would probably require abandoning the existing duplex status , removing the guest cottage, and becoming a single family home. In addition, this 40 x 80 lot would, technically, require a variance for new construction, but all surrounding properties have already been rebuilt/renovated, including the two adjoining neighbors, which actually sit on substantially smaller (20x 80) lots. In addition to having renovated homes all around, this neighborhood offers an easy walk to both the beach and a myriad of local attractions including Joeys' Pizza, Haymarket Hobbies & Toys, LBI Pancake House, Joe Pop's Restaurant & Bar, The Sand Trap Mini Golf, Lang's Liquors, Burger 25, Grace Calvary Church, Bageleddi's, Ship Bottom Shelfish, Ship Bottom Ice Cream, Borough Hall, Bank of America, Russo's Italian Restaurant, Farias Surf Shop, Arlington Bar & Grill, and Zen Sushi. Don't miss this opportunity for an amazing location at an amazing price !! Available immediately and shown by appointment.
