126 N Ocean Ave, Rockaway Beach

Offered for the first time, this lovingly owner-built 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home in Rockaway Beach is a rare coastal gem. Set on 2.5 lots totaling 0.30 acres just a half mile from the beach and downtown, along with being on a cul-de-sac, this one-of-a-kind property has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully designed for comfort, connection, and coastal living. Inside, floor-to-ceiling windows showcase stunning ocean views and provide a front-row seat to the Rockaway Beach 4th of July fireworks show. The open-concept layout features 12-foot vaulted ceilings, solid hickory wood floors, and custom hickory cabinetry throughout—including handcrafted railings made from wood harvested right on the property. The spacious kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas and comes fully equipped with all appliances, including a KitchenAid refrigerator and GE washer and dryer. Bedrooms are comfortably sized, and the large utility room with built-in cabinetry and pantry adds functional storage. Outside, the landscape is a gardener’s paradise, with raised beds, a drip system for hanging baskets, a three-channel sprinkler system, 13 blueberry bushes, covered strawberry patches, a mature apple tree with a nearby pollinator, a 6x10 greenhouse, and a garden shed. Outdoor living shines with a 12x16 pavilion featuring a fire pit, lighting, and power, plus a covered 7-person Tuff Spa hot tub (2021). Enjoy ocean views from the low-maintenance Trex decking. A 36x32 detached carport with 20A RV hookup and septic access accommodates boats or RVs, while the oversized 26.5x28.5 attached garage includes a utility sink, range top, and a 9-ft clearance door. Additional storage includes a 6x10 carport shed and a 6-ft tall 21x26.5 crawlspace. This is more than just a house—it’s a place built with care, memories, and craftsmanship. Come experience the heart of Rockaway Beach living.
