Adorable, quintessential South Bethany canal‑front cottage offering the perfect blend of charm, location, and opportunity. Lovingly maintained as a one‑owner second home, this two‑story retreat is in excellent condition and ready to be enjoyed just as it is—or reimagined into your custom coastal dream home. The home features a desirable layout with one bedroom and bath on the main level, plus two additional bedrooms and a half bath upstairs, with room to expand to a full bath if desired. A spacious screened porch on the first floor and a sun deck above provide front‑row views of the tranquil canal—ideal for relaxing with a book, enjoying morning coffee, or watching boats glide by on lazy summer afternoons. This is the relaxed South Bethany lifestyle so many seek and few find. For boating enthusiasts, the private dock was replaced in 2018, and the bulkhead is in excellent condition, offering peace of mind and easy access to the water. Situated on a 50’ x 100’ canal‑front lot, the property also presents an exceptional opportunity to build your dream home by the bay. All of this is just a short walk or bike ride to the beach and downtown Bethany, where dining, shopping, and ocean breezes await. Whether you choose to embrace the cozy charm of this coastal cottage or create something entirely new, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy canal‑front living in South Bethany—where life moves a little slower and every day feels like a vacation.
