603 Wesley Avenue

Have you always thought "I'd love to buy one of those historic homes in Ocean City and fix it all up?" Or did you ever think about having a home at the shore where you could live in one part and rent the other? Well, this is the property you're looking for! This sale consists of TWO homes on one lot - not condoed, and not subdividable. Both homes were built between 1880 - 1910 and are contributing homes for the Ocean City Historic Preservation Commission. The main house consists of 3 bedrooms, one with a huge attached sunporch, 2 baths, large living room and enormous eat in kitchen, along with an additional sitting room/dining room. The cottage, dubbed The Gingerbread House, is an original "tiny house." It's currently used as a rental home and has a living room, full bath, one bedroom, eat in kitchen, and front and rear porches. This home has been in the current owner's family since it was built in 1880. Originally built in Camden by a shipbuilder, and brought to Ocean City to be used as the family's home when they went to the tent revivals, it's been passed down through the generations. Substantial work has already been done to renovate the homes, including new roofs, new gutters, new appliances, and new flooring, and foundation work on both homes. The main house offers new siding, newer windows, updated plumbing and electrical systems, as well as countless other updates. However, there are still some projects to do, and this is where you'll have a chance to really make these homes your own! A one car garage sits in between the two homes, and there is a deeded walkway to access the rear of the home and the alley. Located just 3 blocks to the beach and boardwalk and right across the street from the Tabernacle and park.
