About this property
IDEAL LOCATION - ONLY A BLOCK AND A HALF TO BEACH- 208 Fourth Street, Bethany
SWEET SPOT AT THE BEACH FOR A QUICK GETAWAY! This lovingly maintained beach cottage is the perfect landing spot to explore the Quiet Resorts of Bethany Beach. Just a hop, skip and a jump from the beach (1.5 short blocks) and a short walk to the shops and restaurants "in-town". You'll love everything about this 4 BR, 2 1/2 BA home... there's a lovely screened porch, smart TVs for streaming, outdoor shower, plenty of parking, CAC, W/D, BBQ Grill and even a small backyard. Owners even supply a Bethany Beach parking permit! Upgraded in August 2025: New Stove/Range for dining in! New for 2026: 4 New, high quality twin mattresses and beds! No Pets or Smoking please.
