Description

Welcome to 7801 Atlantic Avenue, Unit #5 — a rare fee-simple oceanfront townhome on one of Ocean City’s most coveted stretches of sand. With no condo association, no monthly condo fees, and the potential to add a third floor, this nearly original-condition property presents a rare opportunity to reimagine coastal living on your terms. But first — let’s talk lifestyle. Ocean City Living: Where Every Day Feels Like Vacation. Waking up here isn’t just about seeing the ocean — it’s about living with it. The salty breeze, the sound of waves just steps from your deck, and that feeling of being tucked into a residential midtown location that keeps you close to everything without being in the thick of everything. Whether you’re up for a beach run at sunrise, a quiet morning coffee overlooking the dunes, or a spontaneous barefoot walk to the surf, this stretch of Atlantic Avenue offers something rare in OC: a sense of peace in the middle of the pulse. Midtown locals know this block is a sweet spot — not too congested, easy in and out, and surrounded by neighbors who love the area as much as you will. No elevators. No hallways. No shared lobbies. Just open your door and walk straight onto the sand from your oversized oceanfront deck. Midtown Magic: Attractions, Eats, and Entertainment at Your Fingertips - Step off your private beach path and you’re minutes from a long list of Ocean City staples. Grab a crabby pretzel from The Hobbit, or head north to Liquid Assets for a five-star meal in flip-flops. You're close enough to hit Jolly Roger for the kids (or your inner kid), but far enough away to never hear the screams from the rollercoaster. Groceries? Locals love the easy access to Acme and Giant. Shopping? Hit Gold Coast Mall or browse boutiques along Coastal Highway. And when it’s time to play — golf, mini-golf, paddleboarding, and boat rentals are all within a 10-minute drive. Let’s not forget: you’re just far enough south to reach the iconic Ocean City Boardwalk with ease… but far enough north to skip the crowds when you want tranquility. This is the kind of location you only appreciate after you’ve owned somewhere else. The Property: A Blank Canvas With Built-In Equity - This 3-bedroom, 2.bath townhome may be in near-original condition, but that’s exactly the point. What you see is a livable, rentable beach home. What you should see is raw potential, ready for transformation. Add a third story for a dramatic master suite, rooftop deck, or bonus room with panoramic ocean views. Open up the kitchen, modernize the layout, and design your dream beachfront escape — or luxury income-generating property. With no condo rules limiting your vision (or fees draining your ROI), this is truly your space to reimagine. The layout is already functional: spacious first-level living with sliders opening to the beachfront patio, two generously sized bedrooms upstairs, and a deck perfect for sunrises and nightcaps alike. The private parking, exterior storage, and oceanfront decks already deliver on the must-haves. Now, it’s just a matter of design vision. For seasoned investors, savvy second-home buyers, or primary homeowners ready to finally “do the beach,” this is a renovation project with a built-in location premium. And again — no condo association, no red tape. Fee-simple means you own the land. Your rules. Your future value. *Professional Photos Coming Soon.
