About this property
Blue Crab Bungalow – Stay, Play, Repeat!
Fresh and Ready for Beach Days! Say hello to Blue Crab Bungalow—your new favorite beach escape. With new ownership, fresh updates, and a whole new vibe, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath bungalow brings the perfect mix of cozy coastal charm and modern style.
Location? It doesn’t get much better. You’re just one block from beach access at Pender Avenue, making it easy to go from coffee to toes in the sand in minutes. Plus, you’re right near the Nelva R. Albury Recreation Area—a local favorite with a playground, restrooms, and another easy beach access with parking for those extra gear days.
Inside, the home is bright, open, and made for easy vacation living. The living space flows right into a fully equipped kitchen, so whether you're cooking up fresh seafood or just grabbing snacks between beach runs, everything feels effortless and connected. It’s the kind of space where everyone ends up hanging out—exactly how a beach trip should be.
Step outside and you’ve got the best of coastal living. Enjoy your morning coffee on the covered deck with a peek-a-boo ocean view, where the sound of the waves sets the tone for the day. Down below, a shaded lounge area offers the perfect spot to cool off, swing in the breeze, or unwind after a long day in the sun. The fully fenced yard makes it easy for kids to play while you relax nearby.
Sleeping up to seven guests, it’s ideal for families or a small group looking for a spot that feels both stylish and easygoing. There is also space for a small boat or trailer, a rare island bonus, along with a covered area for storing beach gear. Chairs and a beach wagon are provided to make your trips to the sand even easier.
When you’re ready to explore, you’re just minutes from Surf City’s best restaurants, shops, and local spots—but you may find yourself perfectly content staying right here.
Fresh, stylish, and perfectly located, Blue Crab Bungalow is one of those places you’ll want to come back to year after year. So drop your bags, kick off your shoes, and settle in—because life really is better at the beach, especially when you’re not crabby.
