Property Description
Amazing opportunity to bring your dream home to life in the bayshore community of Fortescue! This property is currently a shell—ready for you to design and finish exactly as you like. With the major utilities available, the groundwork has already been laid. Public sewer installation is in progress with expected completion in 2026, and public water, natural gas, and electric are all accessible at the site.
The location is second to none. From your doorstep, you can stroll to Higbee's Marina, the local luncheonette, and the bait shop. A quick golf cart ride will take you to the historic Charlesworth Inn, the Fortescue Sea Chest, and the Delaware Bay shoreline. This community is South Jersey's best-kept secret—a place where small-town charm and natural beauty come together.
Fortescue is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts and anyone looking for peace by the water. Here you can spend your days fishing off the pier, crabbing and boating with friends, kayaking along the bay, or simply enjoying bird watching as flocks of migratory species pass through. Sunsets on the bay are nothing short of spectacular, and life here feels like a step back to a quieter, simpler time—yet with the modern convenience of upcoming sewer and existing utility access.
This property offers endless possibilities. Whether you're envisioning a weekend retreat, a year-round residence, or an investment opportunity, the chance to customize this shell into the perfect coastal escape is waiting for you.
Don't miss the opportunity to create your own slice of paradise along the Delaware Bay—schedule your showing and explore all Fortescue has to offer!
