Beautiful wooded lot in the heart of historic part of Ocean View. Perfect place to build your dream home! All utility fees, impact fees and hook-up fees are the responsibility of the purchaser.
Create your perfect coastal retreat on this generously sized 88' x 115’ lot, ideally situated in a quiet bayfront neighborhood. Community access to a small beach/launch just steps away, perfect to launch a canoe or go for a swim. Enjoy the best of both worlds— being tucked at the end of a peninsula of private land with peaceful surroundings all while being just minutes from the beach, boardwalk, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. Located only a few miles from Bethany Beach and just a 5 minute walk to James Farm Ecological Preserve, where you can kayak and explore scenic nature trails, or play tennis at the local club nearby. The lot has been cleared while still offering mature trees for added privacy. This lot is NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE, and low taxes and no HOA fees make this an exceptional opportunity to own your slice of coastal paradise.
Rare coastal development opportunity just minutes to the beach. This prime GR-zoned parcel offers multiple potential paths for a buyer or developer. The property appears well suited for a five-lot subdivision featuring approximately one-acre homesites, with subdivision approval handled administratively through Sussex County and estimated to take approximately three to four months. Lots of this size this close to the beach are increasingly uncommon and allow for spacious single-family homes with room for pools, detached garages, and meaningful landscape buffers — creating clear differentiation in today’s market. For buyers seeking greater density, the property is also believed to support a higher-yield configuration of approximately 25 to 30 condominium units or smaller single-family home sites, subject to zoning, engineering, and full county approvals. This approach would require a longer entitlement timeline but may offer substantial upside depending on final design and layout. Alternatively, the parcel could be held or enjoyed as a private estate-sized homesite just minutes to Bethany Beach, allowing a future owner to pursue development at a later date as surrounding growth continues. Public utilities are at the road (buyer to perform all due diligence regarding sewer capacity, stormwater management, and subdivision approvals). Opportunities of this scale, flexibility, and proximity to the beach are increasingly limited. Please note that there is a structure on the property. It offers no additional value and will convey as-is, where-is.
