Property Description
Introducing 294 New Jersey Ave to the market! This is a breathtaking cottage home in the heart of Fortescue, New Jersey. This bayfront beauty boasts 1596 square feet of living space and sits on one of the most coveted lots in town, offering unparalleled privacy compared to other lots in the area. George Washington did not sleep here but NC Wyeth, Thomas Eakins, Peter Boyle, and several other Philadelphia Sketch Club artists did! This property has been recently fully renovated with original parts intact for the keepsake of history. Featuring 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, this home is designed with an open floor plan that showcases the incredible 180-degree views of the bay from sunrise to sunset. The views are simply immaculate and will leave you in awe every time you step inside and see the water through the window-lined walls as well as when you walk out onto the extra large deck. Open the windows and enjoy the bay breeze in the morning through your primary bedroom or while you enjoy a lovely dinner with friends or family in the dining room or out in the sunroom in the evenings. The sound of the movement of the water mixed with all of the birdlife is a true compliment to the peace and quiet of Fortescue. In the front yard, there are 2 sheds merged into 1 space. The potential of this property is immense and offers the perfect opportunity for a second home for vacationing or as an Airbnb that could yield lucrative cash returns in addition to major appreciation potential in the future. The area is quickly developing, and with the addition of public sewer coming very soon, it is expected to see even more growth. As it stands, the town is well known for its fishing, as well as for its fine dining at the Charlesworth Restaurant. Owning waterfront property like this at this price is an opportunity that may never present itself again. Don't let this chance slip away to own a stunning bayfront property in a charming, quaint fishing town. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that you don't want to miss out on!
