Hurricane Sandy Renovations will be completed by February 15, 2013. We hired a professional restoration company, so all hurricane issues have been addressed and completely remedied. This first-floor, handicap-friendly condo is only one block to the beach and boardwalk, conveniently located in walking distance to hundreds of shops and restaurants! This fabulous condo features all modern amenities including two-zoned central air, wifi, a 42 inch hdtv with cable, an Xbox, many video and board games, and dozens of books for your reading pleasure. The new, brighter interior boasts a 36 inch wide, leaded glass front door. The wide door and wide hallway make it very easy for someone in a wheelchair to navigate throughout the unit.
The family room, hall and four bedrooms have brand new floors, walls, ceilings, trim and solid wood doors. All rooms will be beautifully decorated with your comfort in mind and all feature recessed lighting. The family room, two of the four bedrooms and the dining room have partially exposed brick walls – a fantastic post-renovation discovery! The family room will have brand new furniture, most likely leather (but not ordered as of yet).
Bedroom 1 will have a queen bed and antique oak dresser. Bedroom 2 will have a queen bed and lovely hand-painted antique dresser. Bedroom 3 will have two whitewashed bunk beds. The first bunk bed is a double over a double (sleeps 4). The second bunk bed has a full-size futon on the bottom and a single on top (sleeps 3). This room is a great space for kids and will have a 32 inch flat screen hdtv with cable and Xbox! Bedroom 4 will have a set of twin bunks and a dresser. All bedrooms will have hdtv/dvd combinations for summer 2013.
The kitchen, dining room, full bath and powder room were fully renovated in 2010 with lovely porcelain tile floors, and all were partially renovated again following Hurricane Sandy. The kitchen will be gorgeous – all new hickory cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and a lovely, circa 1898, wrought iron kitchen set. The kitchen includes a glass-top, self-cleaning stove, dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator with icemaker, dinner service for 16, a wide variety of cook and bake-ware, and many small electrics including a griddle, crock pot, blender, mixer, coffee maker and toaster. The adjacent tavern-style dining room is reminiscent of an early English pub with an antique oak table, buffet and secretary’s desk. The handicap accessible bathroom features a 36 inch door and a custom tiled, roll-in shower with grab bars.
The kitchen is adjacent to our lovely courtyard with seating for 30 – a fantastic space enclosed with lattice-work, filled with absolutely gorgeous flowers, freshly painted wrought-iron furniture, and hundreds of tiny white lights. Returning guests will be delighted with our new exterior glass door fitted with mini-blinds for privacy, but allowing plenty of light in the kitchen when desired. Many of our guests remark that the lovely courtyard reminds them of a French Café. The courtyard is shared by this condo and Condo B (our three bedroom unit that sleeps 9). The condos also share a washer/dryer, two gas grills and two fully enclosed outside showers. The rental includes two off-street parking spaces and six weekly beach tags. Beach tags are required for the use of the beach for adults and children ages 12 and over, between mid-June and Labor Day.
Please be advised that the ceilings and most doorways in this condo are approximately 78 inches high. The door leading to the courtyard is 72 inches high. The photos on our website were taken BEFORE the Hurricane Sandy Renovations and will be updated by February 1. Visits can be scheduled beginning mid-January. Condo B renovations are nearly complete and photos will be posted on our website by December 31st. An Open House for all three units will be scheduled for early March. Please watch our website for updates!
We have 2 adjacent units available: a 7 BR, 3 bath Victorian Home (sleeps 18 in the unit comprising the 3 floors above this condo, see listing #1343), and a three bedroom, 2 bath condo that sleeps 9 (Listing # 1898). In July & August, rent all lower floor condos to sleep up to 21 for about $5,000 per week, and have exclusive use of the courtyard, or rent the entire property for up to 40 guests! Great for family reunions, weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, retreats, youth groups, scouts & more.
We are 1 block to the guarded beach, boardwalk, shuffleboard courts, track, football/soccer field, beach volleyball, & basketball courts, & a half block to the 12 tennis courts - 6 turf, 6 clay. Stroll our 2-mile boardwalk & find hundreds of shops, eateries (fudge, salt water taffy, ice cream, pizza, funnel cake, French fries, snow cones, popcorn, candy apples and more!), 2 amusement piers, mini-golf courses, movie theatres, gift shops, souvenirs, clothing stores, jewelry, a lovely Christmas shop, & much more. Nearby, you can rent bikes to ride on the boardwalk. At the bay, you can participate in many water sports including jet skiing, boating, deep-sea fishing, whale & dolphin watching, parasailing & more. Within walking distance you will find many restaurants; several remain open year-round. A few blocks away is Asbury Avenue, the shopping district of OC, with over 100 specialty shops. Weekly summer events within just a few blocks include a fabulous farmer`s market, Family Nights on Asbury, & Family Nights on the Boardwalk. Come see why Ocean City was voted the Number 1 Family Resort by The Travel Channel.
