Whether envisioned as a spectacular second home, a family legacy property, or a premier coastal investment, opportunities of this size and location are increasingly rare. Build your vision in one of the area's most sought-after beach communities and enjoy the opportunity to create a residence that takes full advantage of its exceptional beach-block setting.
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.
This is a truly rare opportunity to create your dream home on a massive corner site on one of the island's premier beach-blocks! The 9,350 square foot lot is 70% larger than the norm on seven mile island and will accommodate new construction of over 6,500 square feet on three levels with views of ocean, dunes and bird sanctuary. This is one of the island's most tranquil / low density settings (all but one of the neighboring properties is oversized) while simultaneously being within close proximity to recreation, shops, dining and nightlife. This has been owned by the same family and not available for purchase in over 50 years. Start your multi generational journey today!
