Description
Step into a rare opportunity to own a piece of Sussex County history with the original Sloan Homestead. This charming cedar shake cottage is perfectly situated on 2.4 private acres, offering approximately 300 feet of serene water frontage and endless possibilities for both relaxation and recreation.
The main residence features 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, highlighted by a newly renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances—blending modern convenience with timeless character. A separate guest cottage provides ideal space for visitors, extended family, or potential rental income, while two barns offer ample storage for boats, equipment, or hobby use.
Enjoy true waterfront living with your own private dock—perfect for boating, fishing, or simply taking in the peaceful surroundings. With no HOA, you have the freedom to make this property your own, whether you envision a private retreat, family compound, or investment opportunity.
Ideally located just a short drive from beach resort amenities, dining, and shopping, yet tucked away enough to provide unmatched privacy and tranquility. This is a one-of-a-kind property with room to grow, explore, and create your vision. 5540-UL
