Property Description

Just steps from the Indian River Bay and VFW, this fully renovated 1950s beach cottage in Ocean View offers vintage charm, modern upgrades, income potential, and a rare buildable second lot. The 2,100 sq ft main house features original hardwood floors, exposed beams, wood paneling, a brick-accented fireplace with wood-burning stove, renovated bathrooms, new wiring throughout, beautiful tile floors, ceiling fans in each bedroom, central AC, and an eat-in kitchen with a Viking range. The detached 2-car garage has been converted into a successful Airbnb suite with a full bath, bedroom, mini split, and new roof, generating $18,000–$25,000 annually. Outside, the home is surrounded by lovely landscaping, lush gardens, and a variety of fruit trees, creating a peaceful outdoor oasis. The 20x40 ft inground pool sits on the second buildable lot on 3/10 of an acre, offering potential for future development or expanded outdoor living. Don't miss this one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a slice of Delaware beach history with room to grow—just minutes from Bethany Beach.
