Looking for peace, relaxation, a breathtaking water view and, maybe, some kayaking, fishing or crabbing off your personal dock? Or want to lie in the sun and listen to the waves crash on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean? You can have all this and more at our tranquil waterfront bungalow just minutes from the beaches of Ocean City, Maryland. The home, 1,400 square feet in area and newly remodeled in 2017, features an eat-in kitchen, spacious screened-in porch, living room, three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Views from the kitchen, living room and porch open up to the water. Included in the rental package are a private dock, two kayaks, two paddle boards, six beach chairs, three bicycles, a grill, a smoker, and plenty of off-street parking. And for those unable or unwilling to fully disconnect, there’s always WiFi and several TVs. The home’s cooling and heating are central. The eat-in kitchen, complete with farm house sink, rustic table and gather-around island, comes with everything you’ll need, including range, microwave, super-quiet dishwasher, main fridge with icemaker, separate beverage fridge, pots and pans, dishes and utensils, coffee maker, separate Nespresso machine, toaster, slow cooker, griddle and blender. A stand-out feature of the house is its spacious (24x10) three-season screened-in porch with its breathtaking water views. It’s perfect for sipping morning coffee or evening drinks, all while taking in sunrise or sunset, or just enjoying the fauna with its dozens of bird species that can include egrets, herons and the occasional eagle. Equipped with wrap-around window panels that can be lowered or raised as desired, the porch features two seating areas – one for relaxing, the other for meals or games. And if the sun’s too bright, just push the button to roll out the electric awning. For a change of scenery or a connection to the outside world, you can turn to a large flat screen TV in the home’s living room where you can spread out over two couches or claim for yourself a comfy lounge chair with ottoman. For tunes, you can choose music channels on the cable TV or travel back in time and fire up our turn-table with its eclectic selection of LPs. Board games and some books are also provided. The three bedrooms, each with ample closet space and its own TV, come with one king size, one queen size and one full size bed. Linens, comforters, pillows, pillow cases and towels are provided. The main bathroom comes equipped with washer and dryer. For outdoor cooking enthusiasts, the home includes a gas-started Weber charcoal grill and a separate smoker (the “Egg” type). Propane and charcoal for the grill as well fire-starters for the smoker are provided. For your water, beach and other activity/relaxation needs, the two kayaks are suitable for adults or teens, the stand-up paddle boards are full-size. The bikes are one adult male mountain/road bike, one adult female leisure bike and one early teen girl bike. Some life vests and helmets are provided but you are encouraged to bring your own since we might not have all needed sizes. The kayaks and paddle boards can be launched straight from the home’s private dock. A detachable dock ladder is provided. Please note that if you use our kayaks and/or paddle boards, you will be doing so at your own risk. The rental comes with a complimentary pass to the Ocean City Beach Club (at 49th Street in Ocean City) that includes parking privileges on a private lot as well as access to a beachfront restaurant, bar, members-only pool and beach volleyball court. If you are bringing a boat (please nothing larger than a standard pontoon) or jet skis to the house, you will be able to store those in the off-street parking area immediately adjacent to the home. The area will easily accommodate one pontoon boat and two cars. Aside from being just a few minutes away from Ocean City and all of its attractions, the Ocean Pines community, where the home is located, offers a long list of amenities, including but not limited to golf, pools (five to choose from), racquet sports, recreation and parks, restaurants, marinas, a yacht club, a community center and farmers’ market. Golfers can also enjoy several award-winning golf courses in the area, including a Robert Trent Jones-designed 18-hole golf course just a few minutes away. For rainy days (and off-season), there is an indoor swimming pool. And, if you wish to venture out a bit, a close-by popular attraction is Assateague Island with its acclaimed wild ponies and abundant wildlife. Also just a few minutes away is the quaint little town of Berlin with its great restaurants and antique stores.
