Spend a week or more relaxing in an original Ocean City upper cottage, circa 1919. Climb the front steps to relax on the wide wrap around porch and take in the cool ocean breeze under the shade of old fashioned awnings.
Step inside and you will be transported back to a former era in Ocean City - original chestnut paneled walls in the living room and dining room speak history while chestnut steps, floors, and woodwork complete this historical cottage. The modern kitchen and powder room complete the rooms on this floor. Walk upstairs to four spacious bedrooms and a modern bath. Two queen beds, a double bed, and three twin beds will allow your family to have all the room you need. The house has new central air conditioning, and an enclosed shower in the back yard. A large clothesline and area to store bikes are on the ground floor.
Being in the beach block, you walk less than a block to reach Ocean City's world famous beach and boardwalk. Rent bikes in the AM, spend the afternoon on the beach, and stroll the boards at night, all conveniently located within walking distance of this home. This original arts and crafts style cottage is located in the Northend of Ocean City, the most historical section of town.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1986
My family has been vacationing in Ocean City since the 1940's. We have always stayed at the North end of the island, and first owned property in Ocean City in 1966. My siblings and I spent our high school and college summers working at various businesses on the Boardwalk, and saving hard earned money for college expenses.
My husband, sons, siblings and extended family love to gather at this original Ocean City house to enjoy the sun, sand, surf and memories of summers gone by.
Why the Owner Chose Ocean City
My siblings and I grew up in a summer home on Plymouth Place, in the north end of Ocean City. My current home on Delancey Place is reminiscent of those early Ocean City years, and a slower, more casual pace.
