Exceptional 60' x 110' Homesite with architectural plans included for a 4100 sf, 7 bedroom plus office home or 8 bedroom home. A rare opportunity to create a custom coastal retreat in one of Avalon's most distinctive natural settings. This newly subdivided 60' x 110' vacant lot is ideally positioned just a half block from the beach and a half block from the bay, offering the perfect balance of ocean, bay and nature. What truly distinguishes this location is the extraordinary setting just west of Avalon's distinctive high dunes. Here, a remarkable stretch of oceanfront has been preserved as one of Avalon's few remaining maritime forests. A natural landscape of cedar, holly and wild cherry trees, bayberry and sumac gives way to rolling dunes and an exceptionally beautiful beachfront. From the beach, the maritime forest creates an unexpected sense of privacy and tranquility, a rare coastal experience on a vibrant barrier island. Homes seem wonderfully removed from the shoreline, creating a peaceful, uncrowded atmosphere where the natural beauty of Avalon takes center stage. To the west, enjoy views toward Avalon's crown jewel, the newly transformed Avalon Bay Park Marina, with boating, kayaking, paddleboarding and waterfront recreation just steps away. Designed with resiliency and environmental sustainability in mind, the marina features a modern floating dock system, living shoreline and enhanced public waterfront access. Nearby, the 57th Street Pier provides the perfect setting for fishing, crabbing or simply enjoying spectacular sunsets and panoramic views across the Intracoastal Waterway. A guarded bay beach offers yet another way to spend summer days along the water. With its generous 60-foot frontage and 110-foot depth, 228 56th Street offers an exceptional canvas for a distinctive luxury residence with the potential for expansive indoor-outdoor living, multiple decks a pool and beautifully designed entertaining spaces. Ocean to the east. Bay to the west. A preserved maritime forest at the beach. This is an extraordinary opportunity to build your Avalon dream in a location defined by water, nature and the very best of coastal living.

Exceptional beach-block opportunity on an oversized 110' x 105' (11,550 SF) corner lot—larger than more than 93% of Avalon's residential parcels. Just five homes from the beach, this extraordinary homesite offers ocean views and the opportunity to create a custom luxury estate with a resort-style pool, cabana, and expansive outdoor living. Over a quarter-acre of land is ample space for an expansive residence. Positioned across from Avalon's protected bird sanctuary, the property enjoys forever-preserved natural views, exceptional privacy, and one of the quietest beach-block settings on Seven Mile Island. Because the sanctuary interrupts 73rd Street, there is no roadway connecting Ocean Drive to Dune Drive at this location, resulting in significantly less through traffic than on most Avalon beach blocks. The beach at 73rd Street is known for its peaceful atmosphere and uncrowded shoreline. Existing driveways and curb cutouts on both Dune Drive and 73rd Street provide the rare advantage of dual street access. Seller will demolish the existing duplex prior to settlement, delivering a cleared, build-ready homesite. A truly rare offering—one of Avalon's largest beach-block parcels in a premier location, offering the opportunity to create a legacy estate to be enjoyed for generations.
