About this property

Rarely does a true piece of coastal history become available, especially one that sits directly on the sand. Built in the early 1920s, this original Peninsula beach house is a nostalgic throwback to a simpler era, offering a footprint and a lifestyle that are increasingly hard to find. If you’ve been waiting for a project that allows you to create a custom masterpiece from the ground up, this is the canvas you’ve been looking for. This is a complete fixer-upper being sold in its current as-is condition, perfect for those with a vision for restoration or a dream of a bespoke seaside retreat. The main residence features three bedrooms and two shared bathrooms, retaining the quirky charm of its vintage roots. Adding to the property's incredible potential is a detached one-car garage with a studio above—a versatile space that could serve as a creative sanctuary, a home office, or a guest suite. Bring your architect, your imagination, and your love for the coast to this one-of-a-kind Peninsula landmark.
