About this House

Barnegat Light, SILVER SANDS: Here’s your chance to own a choice property at the southern end of beautiful Barnegat Light, just steps away from the pristine, silvery sands of an expansive beach, with Atlantic Ocean views as far as the eyes can see. Additionally, it is a short walk to the Barnegat Bay municipal beach for swimming with the kids, boating and kayaking, or just enjoying the summer sunset over the water. The property is located on East 28th Street just 160 ft. from a lifeguarded beach with easy access. The 75 X 125 foot (9,375 sf.) over-sized lot would allow one to build a new two family duplex home having income opportunities; or, the construction of a spacious family compound with a large pool and an outdoor kitchen. This existing quaint 3 bedrooms and 2 baths home with a detached garage, also affords many advantages. It is well maintained and has been used in summer by the owner’s family or rented to friends. Its history dates to 1948, having walls of warm, pine paneling. Occupy the present house this summer while you plan your dream holiday home.

    "Quaint fishing village with charm, ocean and bay beaches, and a communal determination to keep things in tune with nature. Change is slow in coming and many locals still make their living from the bay and sea. No mail delivery, but everyone meets at the post office to collect their mail from their P.O. Box. It’s a step back in time to when things were slower and simpler. But the summer months bring many visitors and and much more activity."

    "family vacation home close to the beach and bay. Not overly crowded in the prime summer season. Beautiful in the late spring and early fall with good weather and fewer vacation visitors."
