Why they chose this property
Asbury and Ocean Grove are the perfect blend of history and modern comforts as well as naturally beautiful beaches, along with amazing restaurants and exciting nightlife.
What makes this property unique
Location, Location, Location! Our home is perfectly located on the border between AP and OG. Meaning its free and easy to park on the street, yet also only a 10-20 min walk to any park of the beach or restaurant you want to reach.
